Book me to speak

In an age of increasing polarisation and superficial discourse, I offer something rare: the ability to navigate complex conversations with intellectual rigour, emotional intelligence and a dash of humour. I’ve spoken at the RSA, for the BBC, at Harvard, at literary festivals and conferences and churches. My audiences have ranged from 40 to 4000.

What Your Audience Will Experience

Depth without pretension.

I make complex ideas accessible without dumbing them down. I bring centuries of wisdom from faith traditions, philosophy, psychology and beyond into contemporary conversations about meaning, purpose, and human flourishing.

Authenticity that disarms.

I speak from lived experience of doubt, questioning, and discovery, not as a distanced expert but as a well informed fellow traveller

Practical wisdom for turbulent times.

Whether addressing leadership teams, conference audiences, or community groups, I offer concrete tools for becoming braver, freer and more loving in an increasingly complex world.
