Keynote Speaking

Seeing differently

A story about resilience, delayed trauma and reinvention — told through art, sport and three decades of discipline, and built on the Syklops Framework.

What the talk explores

Turning adversity into a way of seeing

Every talk is grounded in lived experience and shaped around the audience. The themes below can stand alone or weave together into a single narrative arc.

Perception

How the way we see shapes everything we experience — and why a single, fully owned point of view can become a kind of clarity.

Delayed trauma

Losing an eye at eighteen, and the response that arrived four decades later — not as words, but as an image. Why hardship can surface long after the event.

Adaptation

Finding new ways forward when the path you knew is no longer available. Adjusting, evolving and redefining what is possible.

Reinvention

Three decades in accountancy, fifteen years on the BJJ mats, and a late arrival as an artist. How a life can be remade without discarding what came before.
