It’s hard to believe that it’s nearly 2026. What a tumultuous year it has been. My prayer for 2026 is that we find more loving kindness, curiosity and understanding between us.
We stand at a precipice. Our world faces complex, interconnected challenges that demand new ways of thinking—yet we remain trapped in limiting frameworks and structures that prevent us from finding solutions.
Many of us live constrained by expectations we never chose. We inhabit boxes of others’ making or construct new ones in our search for belonging and meaning. We attack those in different boxes, forgetting we are all part of a greater whole. This division leaves us anxious, disconnected, distracted and unwell.
Our medical specialists work in isolated silos, unable to address holistic health crises. Professionals across industries face obsolescence as AI reshapes our relationship with work and each other. To remain relevant, young people need to master multiple disciplines. Meanwhile, unprocessed trauma—our own and our ancestors’—fragments us, severing our connection to wholeness.
The path forward requires stepping outside our boxes, dissolving the walls between us, and honouring the interconnectedness that transcends all boundaries.
If you haven’t yet seen it, my TED Talk explores the power of stepping out of our boxes, thinking laterally and unleashing our creativity to unlock human potential and build community.
My own journey has taken me through many unexpected worlds — elite sport, law, performing arts, entrepreneurship, and building purpose-driven organisations. None of these interests were planned; they unfolded through curiosity and the desire to be a learn-it-all rather than a know-it-all.
How are you developing yourself to remain relevant and inspired in the age of machines?
As many of you know, one of my deepest joys is helping individuals, teams, and communities unlock their creative potential. Over the past years I’ve had the privilege of presenting keynote speeches, leadership programs, creativity workshops, innovation labs, choirs and community-building sessions for organisations across the world.
If your organisation, conference, retreat, school, or community group is looking for:
- A keynote speaker who inspires people to think differently
- A workshop on creativity, leadership, innovation, purpose, or wellbeing
- A transformational experience using voice, storytelling and “positive human collisions”
- Support for cultivating resilience, compassion, and a future-focused mindset
- A facilitator to help your team reconnect, re-energise and re-imagine the path forward
I would be honoured to walk that journey with you. My sessions are designed to uplift, energise, heal and transform the way people see themselves and each other. In a world of increasing uncertainty, these spaces of connection and creativity are more important than ever. If this resonates, I warmly invite you to reach out so we can explore how I may support your next event or organisational gathering. Let’s continue this beautiful journey together and keep walking each other home. Here is a link to my latest song:
