“Kay has given me the confidence to know that I look like I should be charging my fee - and confident to now ask for that fee!"
“Since working with Kay, I’ve raised my fees by 20% - my style has definitely been a contributing factor”
“I went into the presentation feeling like I was worth a hell of a lot of money.”
“Even though I was wearing Hugo Boss + Tod’s loafers before, the looks you've created make me feel way more expensive and elevated.”
“People now know I’m the speaker due to what I’m wearing. I’m earning 5x more per gig than I was last year”
“It’s given me the confidence to up my rates for next year!!”
“I had SO many people tell me how great I looked last night and I think it really pops in the photos too!”

Since starting Embrace Place I’ve worked with professional speakers from all over the world, helping them gain more confidence by discovering their unique look and aligning it with their brand.
Before that, I spent 20 years as a fashion stylist, dressing A-list actors including Elizabeth Debicki, Riz Ahmed, Ben Whishaw, Lily James and others. As a team, attention to detail was everything - we once made a 100-mile round trip to find a specific pair of boots for a shoot in order to get the best results.
I now combine my passion for style with my love for learning about human behaviour to help professional speakers look and feel their most confident, authentic self.
As an experienced stylist, I have a huge number of tips, tricks and strategies to help you uncover your signature speaker style. The Embrace Place programme will take you through five key steps that will result in you discovering your signature style at your own pace and within a supportive community.
