Hi! I'm Caro 🧠✨
I've spent the las 10 years in HR & Leadership, with a background in communications & design and a loud curiosity abput how the uniiverse works. So, for the past two years I have been researching the brain, decision-making, and our connections in remote environments from a DEIB and neuroaffirmative standpoint. I have led tech teams, where I discovered that each brain processes and collaborates from different parameters. My passion lies in designing inclusive environments—not by correcting people, but by configuring teams to learn better together

As a gifted AuDHD girly 💅🏼 I bring a unique perspective that bridges neuroscience, communication, and technology. My talks inspire audiences to rethink collaboration, embrace neurodiversity, and foster truly inclusive cultures in both remote and in-person settings. I am committed to sharing actionable insights that help organizations unlock the full potential of their teams by understanding how our brains work and how we can design environments where everyone thrives. And have fun. Fun is key, neuroscience says.

Arjun builds what the future demands before it announces itself. He leads AI-first transformations that challenge inertia, align ambition with execution, and turn strategy into systems that scale. Equal parts builder and strategist, he creates momentum where others stall – translating complexity into clarity and vision into velocity. His teams thrive in high-ambiguity, high-stakes environments, delivering outcomes that are as measurable as they are meaningful. Known for “show, don’t tell” leadership, Arjun turns urgency into discipline and ambition into tangible results and believes that building is as much about inspiration as invention – about sparking belief in what’s possible and proving it through action. His edge lies in his refusal to wait – he helps grow organizations and products that don’t simply adapt to change – they set the tempo for it.

Candice Grobler is the founder of Candid Collab, a systems-savvy community consultancy helping solo founders and stretched teams build community-led marketing engines that scale revenue.

After a CPTSD diagnosis and a “you’re unemployable” jab from a well-meaning manager, Candice left the cubicle grind to forge a new model: one where neuro-spicy, outside-the-norm entrepreneurs could thrive through mentorship, scrappy systems, and candid community.

Today, she’s a sought-after mentor and speaker known for transforming sticky-note chaos into streamlined workflows and turning feast-or-famine floundering into steady, soul-aligned revenue. Her live talks, workshops, and interviews blend radical candour with practical playbooks, because life’s too short to build someone else’s empire (or burn out building your own).

Candice has helped dozens of founders grow recurring revenue, reduce burnout, and build communities that market for them, without agency retainers, bro-marketing gloss, or a selling out.

I am a multilingual, intercultural leadership speaker who helps rooms of executives translate ambition into aligned action across borders through a values‑driven approach to transformation. Rooted in lived experience from Morocco to Germany, I connect with audiences across the USA, Europe, the Gulf, and Asia—bridging cultures with stories that land and practices that stick. On stage, I share the 4 Empires—Mindset, Heartset, Healthset, and Soulset—to unify performance, presence, energy, and purpose into one operating system leaders can use immediately. Conferences bring me in to spark inclusive conversations that turn difference into momentum, spotlighting the host’s commitment to representation, belonging, and leadership that resonates across languages and industries. Beyond the stage, my work funds on‑the‑ground charity initiatives in Morocco, and I actively position the host conference as a partner in inclusion and impact so attendees see the message—and the model—in action. If the goal is to inspire action and demonstrate real commitment to global inclusion, I deliver a keynote and community moments that help organizers amplify their message across international networks with credibility and heart.
