Depression isn’t always dark rooms and crying endlessly. Sometimes it’s getting up, going to work and smiling and laughing all day. Then coming home and quietly doing little to nothing until it’s time for bed.
KEYNOTE SPEAKING
Keith uses his lived experience to inspire a change in thinking about mental health and adversity. He motivates people to think differently about their response to the challenges we all face and how to develop a resilience mindset and understand that recovery is absolutely possible.
Each keynote is specifically designed for the client organisation after consultation. Every audience is different and it is vital that your expectations are understood and met. The testimonials of Keith’s clients speak for themselves.Â
