International Keynote Speaker
Wake up your audience and have them laughing, thinking and connecting in new ways
“Charlie delivered an outstanding keynote at our international conference.
Over the course of 45 minutes, she kept a diverse audience fully engaged and genuinely inspired, while her humour had the room laughing throughout.
I would highly recommend Charlie as a keynote speaker for any organisation looking to educate, energise and entertain its audience.”
Chris Felton, MRG, Co-Chair
The Power of Play
It shouldn't be surprising that a comedian makes a good public speaker.
But my "Permission to Play" address isn't just played for laughs.
This is my call to action. To encourage everyone to rediscover their creativity and confidence by following the fun.
Through my personal experiences and insight as a comedian, clown, coach, puppeteer, and student of Trauma Informed Practice, I have seen the transformational power of play.
I believe we urgently need to open our outlook as a society on play to improve our wellbeing and reconnect us to our empathy and intuition.
“It’s no easy feat to energise a room on the Friday morning MRG conference keynote slot, but Charlie absolutely nailed it.
Her "Permission to Play" session was the perfect blend of humour and insight.
She demonstrated exactly how improv principles like active listening and spontaneous collaboration can be applied to build confidence and creativity in the workplace. It was a refreshing push to step out of our comfort zones.
Charlie’s session was a real highlight of the conference!”
Jemma Ralton, MRG, Co-Chair
