Motivational Public Speaking
Expeditions illustrate perfectly the importance of goal-setting, perseverance, self-motivation, teamwork & leadership, overcoming setbacks, confidence and ambition – all presented in an exciting, inspiring and often humorous tale of adventure.
Having presented at leadership camps, primary and high schools, universities, outdoor festivals and expos, staff training evenings, citizenship ceremonies, corporate events and even sell-out and repeat public lectures - I have experience in everything from short 20 minute talks through to 90 minute presentations complete with multimedia slideshow and video clips from my journeys. I am happy to tailor my speech to suit specific needs and interests of any particular group and all carry an underlying motivational, educational, inspirational and entertaining theme.
If you'd be interested to have me speak for your school, function or any other group, please contact me to discuss cost and availability.

Talks for Schools:
Having only just left the education system myself, I find students relate easily to me. Not only can they draw parallels with their own challenges, but it encourages them to consider that there’s no time like the present and they too can realise their dreams earlier in life.
HSC English focus area 'Journeys':
My expedition partner Clark and I have put together a presentation specifically to offer HSC English students a unique insight into the physical, mental and inner journeys that come with challenging yourself to attempt what has not been tried before. Designed for the 2007 NSW HSC English curriculum's focus on ‘Journeys’, please click here to download the pdf flyer. This has been a great success, with several high schools combining their Yr 12 students together to all hear us speak as part of HSC 'Area of Study' days etc.
