Biography

Hunted down to speak for audiences including Microsoft, Sky, and Invesco, Harriet has empowered thousands of people over the last 18 years to believe in themselves and their potential. She has been through multiple transformations and knows what it takes to make deep rooted changes that stick, and to get through tough times and come out the other side stronger and wiser. Harriet is 19 years in recovery from addictions, left an unhappy marriage and went on to thrive, shifted from a 10-year banking career into motherhood and entrepreneurship, overcame a pain condition after being driven into on the motorway in 2016, and is a breast cancer survivor.

 

Harriet's mission is to make sure women know their true value and can make the impact they want to make in the world. She knows how vital it is that the cultural conditions in organisations and in society at large are supportive; empowering women from the bottom up will not be enough without big picture change. The benefits to organisations and the world go far beyond individual women, from higher and more sustainable profits to better wellbeing, spread of money and power, and environmental health.

 

Harriet takes an intersectional feminist approach to DEI from the top down through facilitating discussion; simultaneously, from the bottom up, Harriet is masterful in empowering women to leave behind selfdoubt, sabotaging patterns and overwhelm in favour of new ways of thinking, feeling and acting that uplevel their confidence and wellbeing. As a result, women own their brilliance and succeed. Harriet is described by Vanessa Vallely OBE and MD of WeAreTheCity as 'a real superwoman who empowers others wherever she goes.'

 

Harriet's style is authentic, engaging and interactive, leaving her audiences with practical tools and processes they can use right away for maximum impact and transformation. In 2019, she was awarded Most Memorable Speaker and Best Storyteller at the UK annual Female Speaker’s Conference, and given an award for Leadership in the World by The Network for Transformational Leaders.

 

 

Testimonials:

 

‘Harriet was one of our speakers at WeAreFutureLeaders, a conference that supports the next generation of female talent. Harriet’s talk was exceptionally well received by all our guests, the feedback was nothing short of amazing. Harriet has this wonderful ability that allows people to show their vulnerabilities and in turn be their most authentic selves. She is a wonderfully inspiring speaker who I have no hesitation in recommending. A real super woman who empowers others wherever she goes.’

WeAreTheCity

 

'I attended Harriet’s resilience talk and found it inspirational and insightful, along with having some great ideas for different ways to think. It was also wonderful that Harriet not only spoke from educated knowledge but also and perhaps more valuably, personal experience. As a current employee, long-time people leader and someone with my own experiences of the trials and tribulations of life I found Harriet’s talk really wonderful!’

Rolls Royce

 

'Harriet is an amazing speaker; her energy, vulnerability, presence and heart-felt delivery kept the audience fully engaged. I could see and feel the audience connecting with her and her message; I know from feedback that Harriet’s talk changed many people’s mindset and helped them to grow. As the organiser of a regular multi-speaker event, this is exactly what I want from speakers and for my audience.’
