“Candice's energy and humour are like no other. It's contagious.”

Tara Watson
People & Culture Leader, See Differently

Most events have one of two problems.

Problem 1

The speaker drones on with slides no one remembers, and half the room zones out by minute 12.

Problem 2

The MC reads awkward transitions from a script, and the whole event feels clunky and flat.

2

Your event is only as good as the experience you deliver. The right voice can make or break the moment.

That's where I come in.

What you get when you book me.

Energy that relates

I read the room and adjust accordingly. No one's falling asleep or sneaking out early.

Messages that land

Practical insights delivered with humour, depth, and clarity. Your audience leaves with tools they'll actually use.

Zero awkward moments

I handle the unexpected with grace (and usually a joke). Your event feels polished, professional, and memorable.

Pick your keynote

Here are three talks that consistently land with audiences. Want something tailored? Let's chat.

  • Energy Is Everything

    Because time management is useless if you're exhausted

    You don't need more hours in the day—you need more energy in the hours you've got.

    This keynote is for teams and leaders who are feeling flat, busy, or running on autopilot. I unpack why energy is contagious, how to fuel it on purpose, and the simple shifts that transform productivity, collaboration, and culture.

    Expect practical tools, a few laughs, and the kind of "aha" moments that stick long after the event ends.

    Perfect for: Teams feeling flat, leaders managing burnout, anyone running on empty

  • Not Done Yet

    When everyone else is coasting, you're just getting started

    Momentum beats motivation — every single time. This keynote is for organisations that refuse to coast, settle, or lose steam when it matters most. I challenge audiences to reset, refocus, and push past the point where most people give up. With a blend of strategy, humour, and real talk, I show how to finish strong, keep standards high, and create lasting progress — in business and in life.

    Most importantly, you’ll walk away with a clear strategy that teaches you how to be one of those people who actually achieve what they say they will.

    Perfect for: End-of-year events, mid-year resets, anytime motivation dips

  • Discomfort Is Key

    If it feels uncomfortable, you're probably in exactly the right place

    Nothing grows in the comfort zone — except boredom. In this keynote, I reframe discomfort as the ultimate growth strategy. I help audiences understand why the very things we avoid are often the gateway to better results, stronger leadership, and more fulfilment at work. Equal parts inspiring and practical, this session will leave people fired up to take bolder action and lean into the stuff that really moves the needle.

    Perfect for: Leadership summits, change initiatives, teams playing it too safe
