Inspire Action. Shift Mindsets. Move the Room.

Donna is a dynamic keynote and motivational speaker known for powerful storytelling, practical frameworks, and deep presence on stage.

What You Get When Donna Steps on Stage…

Every talk Donna gives is a journey — deeply personal, wildly relatable, with a healthy balance of hard hitting facts and humour. Whether she’s sharing stories from behind the scenes at the Olympics or from hiding in the toilets at school to escape the bullies, her voice is rooted in truth, humour, and fierce compassion.

From working with high performance sports, global corporates to advising schools on psychological safety, Donna brings a unique mix of lived experience, academic grounding, and strategic insight. Her talks land because they are real powerfully practical and because she meets every room exactly where it is. Expect storytelling, data, reflection, laughter, and action — all in one sitting.
