February 23, 2026, Ceri was Robby’s client
Robby was a guest speaker at our annual employee Kick-off event for the year. Robby did a fantastic job linking his story to what we do as an organisation and how we can use his learnings to overcome some of our challenges and obstacles. Robby was able to relate well to the audience and our company culture and priorities for 2026. Some of the feedback from attendees included words such as 'incredibly motivating'; the talk gave me 'a stronger will to focus on my 2026 goals'; 'Robby was very impactful and refreshing'; 'As the keynote speaker expressed, progress begins by taking a leap of faith—one small, intentional step at a time. Each step forward creates space for growth, learning, and transformation throughout the journey.' I would definitely recommend Robby as a speaker at any motivational and/or corporate event."
