Change starts by changing the conversation
Let’s talk about the stuff that’s hard to talk about — addiction, and everything that comes with it.
I speak at companies, schools, universities, podcasts, and events about how our culture often fuels addiction — and how silence keeps it alive.
Addiction is an epidemic. It breaks down people, families, children, teams, entire workplaces.
But open conversations and bold talks can bring awareness, reduce stigma, and — most importantly — spark hope and change.
I want to change the addiction conversation, it’s not just deeply personal — it’s a human rights issue.
Addiction isn’t a moral failure. It’s a human struggle. And that’s why I’m here: to help shift the conversation from blame to hope, from shame to recovery.
What I Offer
I tailor every talk or workshop to your audience.
Themes include:
Alcohol and sex addiction: what it is, what it isn’t, and how to talk about it
Sustainable living without burnout
Rethinking alcohol culture at work and in everyday life
How habits are formed — and how to actually change them
The power of presence, boundaries, and emotional honesty
Want something specific? Let’s design it together.
My Style
Think: Compassion Talk meets Danish honesty, with a little humor to help the medicine go down.
Formed by years of experience — and three years in India practicing mindfulness and presence — I bring both structure and soul to every event.
I’ve spoken for…
Tetra Pak, Unionen, Lund University, Best Western, Ystad Gymnasium, Beroendedagen, Vuxna & Psykisk Hälsa, Stay Connected, Förebild, Hörby Kommun — and more.
