About Guest

I help leaders navigate the unknown – because I’ve done it, literally. As the first UK woman to reach the Magnetic North Pole, I’ve combined decades of experience in extreme environments with boardroom-level leadership to inspire change and possibility.

I’m an executive coach, motivational speaker, and host of the Access to Inspiration podcast, where I interview people who are not defined by status or fame. My passion is helping people and organisations tap into courage, clarity, and purpose – whether that’s in the middle of the Arctic, in a remote boardroom, or amidst the disruption of AI.

Topics I speak on include:

- Leadership in uncertainty and extreme environments
- The mindset of modern explorers and decision-makers
- Nature-led leadership and sustainability
- Purpose-driven performance and resilience
- Why adventure is a 21st-century necessity

I bring grounded, practical wisdom with stories that transport listeners – from the ice caps to the desert, and back to the office. Let’s inspire your audience to embrace change and lead with courage.

Ideal Podcasts: Business, leadership, adventure, sustainability, personal growth, and purpose-driven innovation.
