First as a project player, then as a trainer and finally as a coach, I'm working to ensure that modern Agile models are used less strictly and more respectfully of people.

You can lead an entire team to hit every KPI—and still watch morale crumble quietly.

(Trust me, I’ve seen it happen.)

We keep chasing engagement. Productivity. Retention.

But we forget the root cause behind it all: how people feel at work. I learned that the hard way.

As an immigrant daughter who grew up in silence (literally—selective mutism), then later faced burnout and the chaos of menopause, I realized happiness isn’t a perk—it’s a practice.

It’s not about toxic positivity.

It’s about small, science-backed habits that rewire your brain to release motivation, connection, and purpose—naturally.

That’s what my keynote Happiness Habits for Enhanced Employee Engagement & Productivity delivers.

✨ Based on my book The Future of Work is Human and the Future of Success is Happiness,
I teach leaders and teams how to:
→ Reduce stress and spark motivation through micro-habits
→ Stack positive routines that actually stick
→ Build cultures where people want to stay and grow

Organizations like SHRM, UPEACE (UN-Sanctioned), and The University of Tennessee trust me to bring this message to their stages—because happiness isn’t fluff. It’s the foundation of performance.

If your audience needs to remember what it feels like to thrive again—let’s talk.

🎤 Book me for your next event

Let’s make happiness your team’s competitive advantage.

Gill Walker

Gill Walker

Gill Walker is an Australian-based Microsoft Dynamics 365 and Power Platform expert who works with organisations to turn Microsoft platform investments into sustainable, measurable outcomes.

Gill’s work sits at the intersection of Power Platform, Microsoft 365, governance, adoption, and executive accountability. She advises leaders and delivery teams on how to design operating models that scale. Not just how to deploy tools. Her focus is on clarifying ownership, decision rights, and ways of working so platforms become embedded rather than underutilised.

With over two decades of experience across CRM, digital workplace platforms, and business transformation, Gill is known for identifying the patterns that cause Microsoft initiatives to stall after rollout. Her sessions are practical, candid, and grounded in real delivery experience, without relying on demos or policy-heavy frameworks.

Gill regularly works with CIOs, digital leaders, and change managers who need to balance control with momentum across Microsoft 365 and connected platforms. Her work emphasises governance that enables adoption, rather than slowing it down.

Lani Gonzales

Lani Gonzales

Lani Gonzales helps successful women and high achievers who look accomplished on the outside—but feel exhausted, disconnected, or unfulfilled on the inside—create success without burnout and power without losing their soul.

Many of the women Lani works with have done everything “right.” They’ve built impressive careers, achieved financial independence, and earned respect—yet inside, they feel stuck, overextended, or quietly empty. The constant pressure to perform, produce, and prove has pulled them further from their intuition, their body, and their deeper sense of purpose.

After becoming a law firm partner at 23, Lani lived that same story. From the outside, she had it all. On the inside, she was driven by subconscious survival patterns and a nervous system locked in overdrive. Her own awakening led her to leave the legal profession and devote her life to studying the subconscious mind, human behavior, and the wisdom traditions that have guided healing and leadership for thousands of years.

Today, Lani blends neuroscience-based hypnotherapy, performance psychology, and ancient wisdom traditions to help high-achieving women:
- Rewire burnout and overdrive at the root
- Break free from subconscious self-sabotage
- Reconnect to clarity, intuition, and inner authority
- Build success that feels aligned, sustainable, and alive

Her talks are known for being raw, strategic, and deeply activating—combining modern science with timeless wisdom to create real, lasting transformation. Audiences leave with tools they can use immediately to change how they lead, live, and work.
