Education Speaker:  Jacqueline Leake.

The Human Edge in the Age of AI - "Don't let AI do the thinking for you".

Jacqueline Leake, AI Specialist and Trainer, helping women-led businesses create authentic, time-saving systems with Custom GPTs and AI strategy. Her practical, jargon-free approach shows business owners how to embrace AI confidently whilst preserving their unique voice.

Inspirational Speaker: Jules Mitchell.

From Labels to Liberation: The Flamingo Firestarter Story.

Jules Mitchell is known as the Firestarter – a woman who has spent her life refusing to stay boxed in, labelled, or silenced. She’s the force behind The Mental Wealth Revolution, a bold movement tearing up old mental health narratives and replacing them with a message of brilliance, freedom, and liberation.

From battling anxiety, burnout and depression to building a national movement for change, Jules’ story is one of sheer passion, determination, and an unshakable belief in human brilliance.

In this powerful keynote, Jules will fuse fire 🔥 with feathers 🪶 and share her journey of moving from labels to liberation - embracing not just the triumphs but the messy middle too: the spirals, setbacks, and raw moments that shaped her into the leader she is today. With her trademark honesty and humour, she shows how choosing to stand out- to be the feathered fiery flamingo amongst the flock of grey pigeons - is the key to living and leading with authenticity.

Jules brings both fire and credibility: a TEDx speaker, author of five commissioned books, award-winning trainer, and trusted educator for the NHS, UK Armed Forces, and leading organisations including PwC, ITV, and BBC.

Her message is unforgettable: you are not broken, you are brilliant - and brilliance, once ignited, can set the world alight… and even start a revolution.
