Speaking at RISE UP: A Privilege and a Pleasure

I was absolutely delighted to be invited to speak on stage at the recent RISE UP Conference in London—an event that brought together a passionate, driven, and inspiring community of entrepreneurs, coaches, and change-makers.

The conference was organised by Liam James Collins and Lewis Raymond Taylor, the founders of The Coaching Masters. These two are not only incredible entrepreneurs but also truly inspirational individuals. Their personal journeys—rising from adversity to build a global coaching platform—are a powerful reminder of what’s possible when vision, belief, and resilience come together.

It was a real honour to share the stage and speak to an audience that’s hungry for growth and open to transformation. I’ve always enjoyed public speaking—it gives me the chance to share my story, my lessons, and hopefully inspire others to pursue their own goals with confidence and clarity.

Events like this remind me just how important it is to connect, collaborate, and continue learning from one another. Huge thanks to Liam and Lewis for the invite—and to everyone who came up to chat afterward. Your energy and openness made the day even more special.

Here’s to rising up, together.
