SOCIAL IMPACT / DIVERSITY, EQUITY & INCLUSION / SELF DEVELOPMENT
Keynote: The Laws of Peace and Power
In this powerful keynote, Natalia Rachel shares the learnings she has integrated as a patient-turned-therapist who spent her entire life seeking to find a way to live a life of peace and power.
Through her stories and concepts, you’ll peer through her beautiful kaleidoscope to explore trauma & oppression, the unconscious mind, the nervous system, attachment, and the way we evolve individually and collectively.
If you’ve ever asked yourself the questions: ‘Why am I like this?’ or ‘How did the world end up this way?’, you will make sense of it all like never before.
Rather than talking about privilege, race, or gender, Natalia zeros in on the fundamental experience of being human and belonging in the modern world. ‘Why Am I Like This?’ is the title of Natalia’s book, launched in 2022 with Penguin Random House.
Keynote: Creating Equity Through Compassion
While calls for equity increase, our ability to truly create it often remains out of reach. In this session, author, therapist and trauma-informed educator Natalia Rachel brings audiences out of their heads and into their hearts, taking the conversation to a place where we can all belong, regardless of race, gender or status. The inclusive world that we want to create begins with our own compassion, intention and expression.
Prepare to be moved and inspired as Natalia explores the concept of equity from a very human lens that inspires a new way of thinking and demands a different kind of accountability and action.
CORPORATE WELL-BEING & CULTURE TRANSFORMATION
Keynote: Time to Heal - Moving the Needle on Mental Health & Trauma.
If we really want to move the needle when it comes to mental health, we need to take the conversation deeper.
In this keynote, Natalia Rachel highlights the importance of personal healing and self-mastery work as essential to culture transformation. She aptly connects the dots between mental health, diversity equity & inclusion, and sustainability, and provides a framework for leaders to embody and build a new way of living, and relating. Be prepared to go on an emotional journey where she shares her incredible personal story, and how the lessons she has learned can be leveraged to create sustained social impact. Participants will leave with empathy levels at an all-time high, and inspired to put their learnings into action.
LEADERSHIP AND CHANGE MANAGEMENT
Keynote: Relationship as the Remedy
While relationships are often the source of distress and dysfunction, they can also be the remedy. As leaders, we can harness the power of presence and relational intelligence to support significant improvements in the wellbeing, growth and development of our people. In order to do this, we need to understand the complex human experience, origins of bias and trauma, and how they decontextualize through individuals, communities, cultures and systems.
In this mind-opening session, you will learn to perceive, express and relate in ways that are empathic, and empowering, and inspire radical change. Natalia’s relational approach will change the way you live forever.
PROGRAMS AND WORKSHOPS
Human Intelligence Leadership Program
Human Intelligence Leadership Program is a journey of unearthing all our unconscious trauma and bias-fuelled relating tendencies, and re-patterning ourselves to become the resources we need.
In order to co-create a kinder, more intelligent world, we need to go back to the beginning, meet our origins of threat and exclusion, and co-create a new template for living, relating and creating that stems from safety and belonging.
Other Corporate Workshops Include:
Regulation and Resilience
Trauma is a human problem. As humans that want to show up and help, it's imperative that we learn the language of trauma and unlock our innate intelligence to support safety, healing, restoration and growth.
This one day workshop provides a new perspective on supporting people through and beyond crisis
The Keys to Energy Mastery

THOUGHT LEADERS TO WATCH
Stephanie Dickson
Founder & Editor in Chief,
Green is the New Black
“Thank you, for making the work you do possible and accessible. I feel this is the missing link. We can go easily from trauma to spirituality. But this is the in between where we can witness ourselves in safety.
Natalia conducted a workshop at our Virtual Conscious Festival on The Neurophysiology of Connection and took our audience on a really eye-opening journey. Her calm presence coupled with her depth of knowledge was very apparent and helped to bring a deep understanding of connection to our event. It has always been important to us to bring a focus to our minds and deep introspection to our events, and it is made possible with the experts like Natalia.”
