FEELING GOOD AGAIN: A MUSICAL KEYNOTE EXPERIENCE

In times of rapid change and uncertainty, Feeling Good can feel like an act of courage.

We live in turbulent times.

Employees fear being replaced by AI. Entrepreneurs are overwhelmed by uncertainty. Communities are fractured by social and political divides. Across every industry, people are drained by constant pressure and the creeping sense that control is slipping away.

When power feels out of reach, performance, collaboration, and well-being all suffer.

Now is the time to try something new

An uplifting experience for a unique moment in time.

Drawing on her concept of Emotional Audacity™: the courage to speak up, listen deeply, and act boldly, Shola weaves powerful, actionable insights coupled with a moving version of the iconic Nina Simone anthem Feeling Good. As a former professional singer with more than 15 years on stage, Shola brings music and message together in an inspiring way that few keynote speakers can.

THE CHALLENGES IN YOUR WORLD

Corporate Teams

Projects stall. Tough conversations are avoided. Silos deepen. Potential is wasted.

Inclusion & ERG groups

Passion is high, but resistance drains energy. Progress feels painfully slow.

Entrepreneurs

Surviving takes over. Firefighting replaces strategy. Vision gets buried under pressure.

Individuals in personal growth

Paralysed by change. Instead of bold moves, people retreat, play small, and silence themselves.

Different audiences. Same challenge: power gets lost to fear, doubt, and silence.
