We asked Naomi to speak at our first Women’s Network event, and she was truly inspiring. Her insights, authenticity, and passion for empowering others left a lasting impression on everyone in the room. She spoke with warmth and clarity, sharing experiences that resonated deeply and sparked meaningful conversations afterwards Naomi not only motivated us to reflect on our own journeys but also provided practical perspectives on leadership, resilience, and embracing opportunities. We are incredibly grateful for her time and for the energy she brought to our network.

Naomi, thank you so much for the incredible support you’ve given Absolutely Together. Through our work with local SEN schools, we aim to open doors to free leisure experiences and meaningful work opportunities — and your presentation at Manor Green School genuinely elevated that mission. The way you spoke to the students about resilience and facing life’s challenges was powerful. Seeing you share your own journey, openly and honestly, created an instant connection in the room. Your story didn’t just inspire them — it showed them what strength looks like in real life, from someone who has overcome significant obstacles herself. The impact you had on those young people was clear. You’re a truly inspirational speaker, and everyone who is fortunate enough to hear you leaves feeling more confident, more hopeful, and more capable of facing whatever comes next. Thank you for being part of this work and for making such a meaningful difference

Naomi was the perfect after dinner speaker for our 150-head event. The room was captivated throughout her moving and inspiring account of the path to Olympic Gold and beyond. Naomi's talk was accompanied by excellent visual aids and even the medal itself made an appearance! A story worth telling to any audience.

I've known Naomi for almost a decade, and during that time I've had the privilege of working alongside her and commissioning her services directly. Without hesitation, I will be hiring her again. There are plenty of professional speakers who can tell a great story. Naomi is different. If she's standing on a stage talking about resilience, leadership or overcoming adversity, you know she's lived every word. Her insight hasn't come from a textbook, it has been earned through experience, reflection, determination, life's knocks and an incredible amount of hard work. If there were an Olympics for people development, Naomi would be standing on the top step of the podium. Her keynote speaking, workshop facilitation, storytelling and ability to connect with people are genuinely world-class. She has that rare gift of making every person in the room feel like she's speaking directly to them. She'll make you laugh, challenge your thinking, move you emotionally and leave you with practical lessons that stay with you long after the event has finished. Naomi doesn't inspire because she's extraordinary—she inspires because she's wonderfully human. She shares the triumphs and setbacks with honesty, warmth and humour. People feel safe to think differently about themselves and what's possible because of her. She is one of the most resilient, hard-working professionals I've ever met and, quite simply, worth her weight in gold. If you're considering working with Naomi, stop considering and do it. Your audience, your team and your organisation will be better for the experience.
