SPEAKING TOPICS
Most of us don’t lose ourselves by accident, we do it to survive. We learn early how to adapt, perform, and become who the world rewards. Over time, those strategies work, until they don’t. Life starts to feel tight, effortful, or quietly empty. Coming back to our authentic nature isn’t easy, as it asks us to face discomfort, drop old identities, and tell the truth about what no longer fits. But it’s also necessary. This talk explores why we disconnect from ourselves, why returning feels so challenging, and how living and leading from integrity restores clarity, trust, and a sense of being at home in your life.
We live in a culture that praises effort and often ignores the cost. Pushing and enduring are often mistaken for strength, while rest, receptivity, and slowing down are seen as weaknesses. This session invites a more honest relationship with energy and understanding the relationship between when it’s time to act and when it’s time to pause. When we work with these natural rhythms instead of against them, vitality returns, creativity activates, and life becomes more sustainable.
Resistance shows up whenever something inside us feels threatened by change. Resistance can look like over-working, control, defensiveness, or the need to be “good” at all costs. This talk explores the part of us that is resistant (ego), not as a problem to get rid of, but as a part of us trying to protect something old and how we can work with it. When we recognise resistance without fighting it, we regain choice and with that comes more freedom and ease.

Kat led a development session on ‘choice’ with a group of top talent leaders at lululemon. The session was totally engaging from beginning to end and the group were captivated. Kat created a space for people to feel ok and not to be ok all at the same time. We celebrated our human-ness and through that built such a strong connection.
The response and engagement Kat John received at Movember was remarkable. The whole team felt that Kat was relatable and resonated with everyone. In a short amount of time Kat’s able to get you to feel connected to yourself and those around you. Her energy and style ensure there is always a heartfelt belly laugh not too far away. My colleagues shared how much they loved Kat and her style. Her energy and how real she is magic – no bullshit.
Kat blew us away at our Health and Well-being event. She hit us straight in the heart with her relatable stories and provided a simple yet powerful tool to utilise when our minds begin to overpower our ability to make empowering choices. There were laughs, tears and a tangible experience of going inward to find the answers. What a woman!
Kat connected to the group on a personal level, detailing how she has used positive visualisation and creating goals to overcome all obstacles that stood in front of her. Kat was able to cater to our athletes of all ages, creating a strong connection and inspiring them to be the best they can, both in and out of the water.
We were absolutely blown away by Kat at our annual Tribal Conference. Her energy, authenticity, and relatable approach created an inspiring and engaging atmosphere. The practical tool Kat provided was a hit, and everyone left feeling empowered and motivated. Truly one of the most impactful speakers we’ve had.
We all genuinely loved it. I received some beautiful feedback, including how down-to-earth and engaging the workshop felt, and how there was a real sense of increased cohesion among us as a leadership team. I couldn’t have been happier with the outcome, so thank you!
