Samantha Garner - Speaker, Trainer, Author
Are you bored of the same motivational and inspirational speakers/trainers on the circuit?
If so, you need me. A fat, menopausal woman who has never climbed a mountain or run a marathon.
Someone who makes supporting mental health and inclusion accessible, simple and fun.
Someone who wants everyone to learn to like themselves for who they are now, and not have to hop up Snowden on one leg to achieve that.
Someone who wants to empower settings and people to be more inclusive.
Stop believing you aren’t good enough, you are amazing
Being real and authentic is my thing
Being real and authentic is my thing – I don’t lecture or patronise. I’m not going to tell you the usual ‘motivational’ or ‘inspirational’ stuff, or give unattainable inclusion advice. I’m going to be real, make you laugh and help you find what works for you and your setting.
When we have fun and laugh, we engage and learn more.
Straight talking and funny - words often used to describe me
“Funny” is subjective and cannot be guaranteed. I respect your right to be wrong if you don’t find me funny.
