On behalf of the delegates that attended our annual national convention last week. We were blown away with Brooke Hanson’s positive energy, courage & inspirational message that she delivered. The feedback we have received from our people has been overwhelming and the highest praise we have received from a keynote speaker in recent years. The take home messages were delivered with passion, enthusiasm, humour & professionalism. I would highly recommend any company or group wanting to empower & inspire their people to engage Brooke as a key note speaker. A 10/10 performance for content & delivery. Conference Delegate

Brooke's story inspires, captures your attention, then breaks your heart to focus on what's really important in life... If you're not a better person from hearing Brook speak you aren't human. Conference Delegate
I did wonder what inspiration I could take from an Olympic Swimmer, but my phone is full of screenshots from your talk and my notepad full of notes on how I can change & improve myself at work, in life & at home. You are an incredible woman - as a young mum myself your story brought me to tears but what an inspiration you are. Conference Delegate
