Helen Millar is a speaker, emotional intelligence consultant and transformation coach helping leaders, founders and organisations build the inner capacity to thrive in the age of AI.

With nearly two decades of international coaching experience, an award-winning acting career and a profound personal healing journey, Helen brings rare depth to conversations about leadership, change, resilience and human potential. Her work sits at the intersection of emotional fitness, conscious leadership, communication, psychology, money, faith and strategy.

Helen is a regular speaker at Oxford, Cambridge and London Business Schools, has been featured on the Discovery Channel across three continents, and is the founder of Helen Millar, Hearty.Company and Heart Healer®. Through Hearty, her consultancy brand, she works with organisations and executive teams on emotional intelligence, leadership presence and the human skills AI cannot replace.

Her signature keynote, Emotional Fitness is the Leadership Edge in the Age of AI, explores why the future will not belong to the most intelligent machines alone, but to the most emotionally intelligent leaders. As technology accelerates, leaders need more than strategy, systems and skills. They need nervous system capacity, discernment, authenticity, relational intelligence and the ability to meet uncertainty without collapse or control.

Helen also speaks powerfully on healing your relationship with money, self-worth and change, particularly for female founders, creatives and high-achieving professionals whose external success has outpaced their internal stability. Having transformed her own life from self-sabotage, ill health and financial scarcity into a thriving portfolio of meaningful work, property, investment and global impact, Helen does not speak about transformation as theory. She has lived it.

Her approach combines emotional intelligence, psychological insight, spiritual wisdom and grounded business acumen through her Head to Heart Living and Head to Heart Leadership frameworks. The result is work that is intelligent, human, practical and deeply transformational.

Helen’s talks are ideal for organisations, leadership events, women’s leadership programmes, founder communities, wellbeing conferences and future-of-work conversations seeking a speaker who can bring emotional depth, commercial relevance and a powerful human perspective to the age of AI.

Stephanie Keldani is a Keynote Speaker, Identity Architect, and the founder of the 180° Academy. She helps leaders, visionaries, and high-capacity creators navigate profound disruption, unlock deep inner authority, and turn intense friction into their ultimate competitive advantage.

Stephanie’s expertise was forged in the extremes. After escaping a high-control cult as a child—where she experienced severe suppression and systematic trauma—she was forced to rebuild her internal architecture from the ground up. What began as a personal necessity for survival evolved into a rigorously tested, high-performance recalibration process for global leaders ready to stop leading from past obstacles and start leading from truth.

Going far beyond typical mindset work, Stephanie’s keynotes deliver a potent blend of nervous-system level transformation, intuitive intelligence, and practical adaptability frameworks. Whether she is guiding audiences to decouple their self-worth from automation in the age of AI, dissolve deeply rooted patterns of self-sabotage, or lead with absolute conviction from their own core, she empowers people to step into sovereign command of their vision.

Through engaging storytelling, radical transparency, and actionable insights, Stephanie moves audiences from survival mode to profound breakthrough—leaving them regulated, rewired, and ready to lead the future with unwavering clarity.

Dr. Noémi Nagy is an Assistant Professor of Career & Technical/Workforce Education at the University of South Florida and Affiliate Faculty at the Nault Center for Entrepreneurship. Her research focuses on workforce development, and the psychology of sustainable careers in rapidly changing industries such as technology and cybersecurity. Her research is international and cross-disciplinary and she works with researchers from Switzerland, Germany, Singapore, UK, the U.S. and Australia.
She’s the author of the internationally recognized Career Resources Model, featured in the London School of Economics Business Review, which breaks down the 13 trainable factors that make or break a successful career. Her research goes way beyond theory: it covers how people actually find jobs (job search behavior, published in PNAS), how they shape their roles to fit their strengths (job crafting), and how they can take charge of their careers instead of waiting for luck or management to do it for them.
Altogether, Dr. Nagy’s research has been cited over 800 times around the world and has earned multiple international awards for its real-world impact. She takes what works in Switzerland’s high-trust, precision-driven innovation scene and brings it to Tampa Bay’s fast-growing tech and cybersecurity community, helping professionals and teams build the mindset, motivation, and structure to grow stronger, stay relevant, and perform at their best.
Dr. Nagy is also an active contributor to the local tech community: she won first place at the Tampa Bay Developers Hackathon in 2022 (Best Architecture & Best Visual Design) and hosted the Tampa Devs Career Forum at USF’s College of Education in 2023, where she teaches her model to students, professionals, and entrepreneurs.

Camilo Zambrano is an author, TEDx speaker, founder of Self Disciplined and Adaptable Discipline, and a software engineer by background.

His work reframes discipline as the practice of return: the skill of coming back to what matters after stress, distraction, conflict, overwhelm, or drift. He draws from systems thinking, behavioral theory, neuroscience, and psychology to explain why people drift, what makes returning harder, and how to design conditions that make returning easier.

Camilo speaks about return as a meta-skill, comeback speed, burnout, focus, emotional regulation, neurodivergence, leadership, and the systems that help people and teams recover coherence when life or work pulls them off course.

His TEDx talk, "The Gentle Art of Finding Your Way Back," introduces the central idea behind his work: drift is the default; the return is the skill.

Doug Belkofer is a transformation coach, U.S. Army veteran, longtime technology leader, and founder of Forging Truth.

For much of his life, Doug had a life that looked successful from the outside. He was professionally accomplished and had been married for more than a decade. But beneath that surface were deeply embedded beliefs quietly shaping how he related to himself, others, and intimacy. Beliefs that said he wasn't enough. That love had to be earned. That perfection was the price of safety.

Doug didn't recognize those beliefs as distortions. They didn't feel like lies. They felt like truth. They felt like his own voice. And because of that, they went unquestioned, even as the same emotional and relational patterns kept repeating.

That experience now shapes Doug's work with others and his speaking. He explores how beliefs formed through earlier experiences can quietly influence what feels safe, possible, and even visible to us, and why knowing that a behavior isn't working is often not enough to change it.

Doug doesn't approach this work as someone who has "arrived." He speaks from lived experience and continues to learn through listening, witnessing, and walking alongside others as they uncover what they haven't been able to see.

His work isn't about standing above anyone. It's about standing with them, bringing clarity where there was confusion, language where there was self-blame, and awareness where there was once only repetition.

Audrey Franklin is the Founder of HyperStriver and a Career and Leadership Development Coach who helps people find their path, live with purpose, and lead with power. Her journey began with her first paying job as a Front Desk Agent at a small hotel in New Mexico. Over the next decade, she worked her way through college while building a successful career in hospitality. She earned a Bachelor’s Degree in Lodging and Resort Management from the University of Nevada and held several roles at MGM Grand, including Agent, Night Auditor, and Concierge. Although she was proud of what she was accomplishing, she could not ignore the feeling that something important was missing.

Audrey knew she enjoyed helping people, solving problems, creating positive experiences, and supporting others. At the same time, she felt called to do something more meaningful, something that would allow her to help people grow, lead, and create a lasting impact. That feeling led her back to school, where she earned a Master’s Degree in Psychology and began exploring the connection between human behavior, personal development, leadership, and meaningful work. Although her career transition did not happen exactly as planned, she continued growing professionally in the hospitality and technology industries, eventually moving into project management and leading complex initiatives and teams.

Even as Audrey built a successful career, the same questions remained: What was she truly meant to do? What kind of impact did she want to make? How could she create a life and career that felt both successful and meaningful? She searched for answers through books, podcasts, research, and the work of psychologists, coaches, entrepreneurs, and thought leaders. Over time, the answer became clear. Her purpose was not simply to build projects, it was to help people build lives and careers they love, create work that reflects their values, and become leaders who make a positive difference.

That purpose inspired Audrey to create HyperStriver. Through coaching, workshops, training, and leadership development experiences, she helps early-career professionals, emerging leaders, and purpose-driven individuals gain clarity, build confidence, and take meaningful action. Her work brings together career clarity, leadership growth, personal development, and positive impact. She believes people are rarely stuck because they are lazy or incapable. More often, they are disconnected from who they are, what matters most to them, and the impact they are capable of making. HyperStriver helps people reconnect those pieces and move from confusion to clarity, from misalignment to purpose, and from dreaming about change to intentionally creating it.

Today, Audrey is also pursuing a PhD in Business Psychology, with academic interests in meaningful work, leadership development, prosocial behavior, and positive organizational impact. She is a Project Management Professional, wife, mother, entrepreneur, lifelong learner, and outdoor enthusiast who believes some of life’s best conversations happen on a trail, around a campfire, on the lake, or while exploring somewhere new. To Audrey, being a HyperStriver means intentionally pursuing growth, embracing meaningful challenges, and using your strengths, purpose, and opportunities to create something meaningful. She believes people are capable of more than they realize and that life and work become more fulfilling when we stop drifting and start moving with intention.
