Keynote Speaker

If you want a keynote speaker who changes the temperature of the room and turns suppressed energy into usable power, you’re in the right place.

Lorraine Chapman is an award-winning speaker and bestselling author of Unleashed & Liberated: My Life, Your Story. A former secondary school leader with a Degree with Honours in Lifelong Learning and Qualified Teacher Status, she combines educational rigour with embodied intelligence, sexual life-force awareness and sharp, well-timed humour.

Her keynotes give language to what many organisations feel but struggle to articulate.

High performers delivering exceptional results while suppressing desire and drive.
Professionals softening their edge to remain acceptable.
Teams achieving targets while disconnected from the creative current that fuels innovation, courage and decisive action.

This is not about sex at work. It is about sexual energy in its original form. Creative force. Instinct. Pulse. The aliveness behind vision, risk and chemistry.

Lorraine works at the level beneath strategy. She addresses the internal tension behind performance and releases it in a way that feels intelligent, grounded and human.

The shift happens in the room.

What Others Say!

Audiences leave clearer, more self-aware and more connected to their own instinct. They speak more directly. They decide more cleanly. They act with greater conviction.

The impact is visible.

Conversations become more honest.
Overthinking reduces.
Decisions carry clarity and momentum.
Boundaries strengthen.
Creativity expands without burnout.

And it extends beyond the workplace.

When people reconnect with their life force, it reshapes how they show up everywhere. In meetings. At home. In conflict. In intimacy. In ambition. In rest. In how boldly they create what comes next.

This is not a temporary lift in mood.

It is a recalibration of presence across professional and personal life.

This is not passive motivation.

It is people fully switched on in the areas that matter most.

Signature Talks

Courage in the Room

Every organisation talks about performance.
Very few are willing to examine the energy underneath it.

In this keynote, Lorraine Chapman explores sexual energy as life force. Not as something provocative for effect, but as the core current that shapes confidence, courage, clarity, creativity and the way we relate in every area of life.

Before strategy.
Before structure.
Before performance frameworks.

Sexual energy in its original sense is creative charge. Instinct. Desire. Boundary. Expression. It is the force that allows someone to take clean risks, hold presence under pressure, set clear limits and move with conviction rather than caution.

Why This Matters

Performance does not begin with targets. It begins with energy.

How someone relates to their own desire affects ambition.
How they experience shame affects authority.
How they hold boundaries affects resilience.
How they navigate vulnerability affects trust and influence.

When people are disconnected from their life force, they over-manage themselves. They hesitate. They armour up. They burn out.

When they are connected to it, they are clearer. Braver. More creative. More grounded under pressure.

This talk does not sensationalise sexuality. It integrates it as the driver of vitality and sustainable impact.

What Lorraine Explores

Drawing on her background in education leadership and her visible work in intimacy and embodied practice, Lorraine examines:

• Sexual energy as the foundation of vitality and confident presence
• Shame as a hidden regulator of performance
• Embodied regulation and nervous system strength
• Relational congruence as a competitive advantage
• Desire, boundaries and authority as leadership capacities

Healthy intimacy builds trust, emotional steadiness and honest expression. These are not “soft” skills. They are the architecture of high-functioning cultures.

When those foundations are embodied rather than intellectualised, performance becomes sustainable.

Audience Outcomes

Participants leave with a deeper understanding of the life force driving their behaviour.

Confidence becomes grounded rather than performative.
Boundaries strengthen across professional and personal relationships.
Risk-taking becomes cleaner and less reactive.
Creativity expands without tipping into depletion.
Presence becomes steady under pressure.

Because real authority is not only strategic.

It is energetic.

And the quality of our connection to our own life force shapes how we work, how we relate and how we live.

Beyond the Internal Barrier

Organisations invest heavily in strategy.
Far fewer examine the internal beliefs quietly shaping the people expected to deliver it.

Most teams do not lack intelligence or skill. They carry old conditioning.

Limiting beliefs rarely announce themselves. They show up as hesitation in decisive moments. Over-preparing to avoid exposure. Softening strong opinions. Taking up less space than capability warrants.

Behind that behaviour is often a personal story formed long before the job title.

An early experience of not being heard.
A belief that being visible is unsafe.
An identity built around approval rather than authority.
A pattern of earning worth through over-performance.

Those narratives do not disappear with success. They refine themselves. They influence risk tolerance, confidence, ambition and how someone handles pressure.

In this keynote, Lorraine Chapman explores how childhood experiences and relational patterns embed into adult behaviour and how those internal scripts can be recognised and interrupted.

This is not therapy.
It is pattern awareness that translates directly into professional development.

Why This Matters

Unexamined beliefs quietly restrict performance.
Self-doubt reduces visibility.
Old narratives narrow ambition and dilute authority.

When outdated beliefs go unchallenged, contribution contracts and potential remains underused. When they are brought into the light, confidence becomes more grounded, authority strengthens and performance expands without strain.

Organisations do not need to push harder.
They need to clear what is holding people back.

Audience Outcomes

Participants leave with deeper insight into the personal narratives shaping their decisions and presence.

Confidence strengthens from the inside out.
Boundaries become clearer.
Risk-taking becomes cleaner.
Contribution becomes braver and more consistent.

Growth rarely stalls at strategy.

It stalls at belief.

And when belief shifts at the level of identity, behaviour follows quickly and visibly.

Unleashed and Liberated

What happens when the life that looks successful no longer feels honest?

Lorraine Chapman once had the respectable version of success. Qualified teacher. Middle leader. Reliable. The woman who held it together.

She was also exhausted from trying to be acceptable.

Inspired by her bestselling book Unleashed & Liberated: My Life, Your Story, this bold, comedian-led keynote shares the mistakes, misjudgements and magnificently human decisions that shaped her.

The double life.
The overcompensating.
The people-pleasing.
The trying not to be too much.

And yes, she takes the piss out of herself.

Because pretending to be perfect is far more ridiculous than admitting you are human. And the pressure to have it all together is often the very thing that keeps people stuck.

Blending sharp humour with grounded leadership insight, Lorraine connects her story to something universal. We do not compartmentalise as well as we think.

How we handle shame shapes our communication.
How we manage fear shapes our visibility.
How we judge ourselves shapes our authority.

In organisations, capable professionals often perform competence while hiding uncertainty. They overprepare. Overthink. Overedit.

And it costs them energy. It limits contribution and quietly caps potential.

This keynote explores what changes when leaders stop performing perfection and start leading integrated.

Why This Matters

Perfectionism limits innovation.
People-pleasing weakens influence.
Fragmentation drains performance.

When leaders own their mistakes instead of hiding them, credibility increases and trust grows.

Audience Outcomes

Staff leave lighter and more confident.
Leaders leave stronger in voice and visibility.
Teams leave valuing authenticity and resilience.

Because getting it wrong is not the opposite of leadership.

It is often the training ground for it.

What makes Lorraine different from other keynote speakers?

Lorraine combines formal educational expertise with lived experience and sharp comedic timing. A former secondary school leader with a Degree with Honours in Lifelong Learning and Qualified Teacher Status, she understands how people learn, not just how they listen.

She does not deliver surface inspiration. She shifts emotional tone, challenges self-editing and creates lasting behavioural insight. Audiences leave clearer, braver and more aligned, not just energised.

Is Lorraine’s message right for corporate and professional audiences?

es. Lorraine’s work is designed for capable, high-performing professionals and leadership teams.

While her personal story is bold, her delivery is intelligent, structured and commercially relevant. She speaks about leadership, communication, self-suppression, cultural honesty and performance in ways that resonate in corporate, education and professional environments.

Her humour is fearless but thoughtful. Her outcomes are practical.

What topics does Lorraine speak about?

Lorraine’s keynotes explore themes including:

• The cost of playing safe in leadership
• Courage and cultural impact in the room
• The leadership power of getting it wrong
• Limiting beliefs and internal performance barriers
• Emotional regulation and embodied confidence

All talks centre on visibility, communication, congruence and sustainable high performance.

Can Lorraine tailor her talk for our industry or event theme?

Yes. Lorraine works with organisers to understand audience pressures, leadership context and event objectives.

Her core message remains consistent, but language, examples and emphasis are tailored so the talk feels directly relevant to your sector rather than generic motivation.

Does Lorraine offer anything beyond a keynote?

My workshops are immersive, practical and designed to create behavioural shift rather than passive learning.

These are not presentation-led sessions where people sit and take notes. They are structured experiential environments where insight becomes embodied understanding.

Designed for leadership teams, cross-functional groups and organisations navigating growth or change, workshops integrate nervous system awareness, grounded communication and embodied performance.

Depending on your objectives, workshops can include:

• Experiential leadership challenges
• Firewalks, glass walks, arrow or board breaks (where appropriate)
• Embodied communication exercises
• Real-time behavioural awareness
• Practical integration tools for daily leadership

Participants do not just discuss leadership. They experience it differently.

The outcome is tangible: stronger cohesion, more honest conversations, greater emotional awareness under pressure and sustainable performance without force.

Workshops are available as half-day sessions, full-day intensives or integrated development programmes, and are tailored to your organisational context.
