Keynote Speaker

If you are looking for a keynote that makes your people laugh, think and recognise themselves more than they expected – you are in the right place.

Lorraine Chapman is an award-winning keynote speaker and bestselling author whose talks go where most speakers won’t.

She speaks about the quiet force shaping more of your workforce than any wellbeing programme has addressed yet.

Not in a sensational way. In a human one.

The early conditioning that teaches people to tone themselves down, soften their voice, over-achieve for approval or hide parts of who they are to stay acceptable. It shapes confidence, communication, visibility and how people show up at work – often long before anyone notices.

And it is costing your organisation more than you think.

Across her keynotes, Lorraine explores what happens when that changes.

When people stop editing themselves. When old stories are interrupted. When the fire that has been quietly dimmed is finally given permission to come back.

With insight, honesty and sharp humour, she opens conversations that feel brave, grounded and completely unlike anything else you will put on a programme.

And somewhere in the laughter and recognition, something shifts.

In the room. In your people. In your organisation.

The Conversation That Saves Businesses. And Lives.

THE MISSING CONVERSATION

Why relationships, intimacy and communication are the conversations most organisations avoid – and what it is costing them.

What It Is
Every organisation talks about wellbeing. Very few talk about what actually drives it.

Relationships. Intimacy. Communication. The way people feel about themselves and each other. These are not soft topics. They are the foundation of every team, every culture and every performance conversation – and most organisations are avoiding them entirely.

Lorraine has the conversation nobody else will. And it changes everything.

What It Covers

Why the real issues in your organisation are never the ones on the agenda

How disconnection, shame and self-editing quietly destroy culture and performance

The link between how people feel in themselves and how they show up at work

What happens when organisations finally give people permission to be honest

Practical shifts that make communication real, not performative

How Your Audience Will Feel

Seen. Relieved. Honest with themselves for the first time in a long time. Ready to have the conversations they have been avoiding.

Who It’s For
HR Directors, People teams, leadership groups, corporate wellbeing days and conferences ready to go beyond the surface and do something that actually works

BREAK THE PATTERN - NOT YOU!

Rewrite the stories that hold your people back – with practical takeaways they use immediately.

What It Is
Your people are not underperforming because they lack skill. They are underperforming because they are running on outdated stories about who they are and what they are allowed to be.

This is the interactive keynote that changes that. In the room. On the day.

Not theory. Not motivation that fades by Monday. Real pattern interruption with practical tools your audience take straight back into their work and their lives.

What It Covers

How limiting beliefs form and quietly become identity

The be good, over-achiever and stay-safe patterns draining your culture

Fear of judgement and the need to be liked – and how it kills performance

How shame reinforces self-editing across teams and leadership

Practical, immediate ways to interrupt outdated thinking and show up fully

How Your Audience Will Feel
Clear. Grounded. Aware of their patterns without judgement – and equipped to do something about them. More self-trusting, more confident and more present from the moment they leave the room.

Who It’s For
Conferences, leadership days, corporate away days, wellbeing events and any audience ready to move beyond old patterns and step into a more authentic, high-performing version of themselves.

UNDER THE COVERS

Educational. Adult. Comedy. Completely Unforgettable.

This gives everyone permission to laugh at the things they’ve never said out loud – and to be completely, unapologetically human while they do it.

What It Is
Not your average after-dinner speaker. Not your average anything.

Under The Covers is Lorraine’s signature adult comedy show – an evening of sharp, hilarious and surprisingly educational entertainment that tackles the conversations most people only have in private.

Bold enough to make you laugh until it hurts. Smart enough to make you think. Human enough to make you feel less alone.

What It Covers

The real conversations about sex, relationships and desire nobody is having out loud

Why the things we find funniest are often the things we need most to hear

Humour as the fastest route to honesty – and connection

How Your Audience Will Feel
Liberated. Entertained. Bonded. The kind of night people talk about for months – because it was funny, real and nothing like they expected.

Who It’s For
Adult events, evening entertainment, women’s nights, private bookings and organisations who want to give their people a night they will never forget.

18+ only. Content is adult in nature.

Your go-to for bringing Lorraine’s energy, expertise, and empowerment to your next event

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.
