Courage, authenticity, resilience, kindness, making a difference. These are all qualities we see in Gail Porter – and qualities which individuals and organisations can learn from her.
In her brave and frank talks, Gail discusses topics such as:
- mental health

While enjoying a successful career as a television presenter, personality and model, Gail suffered from self-doubt, anxiety, depression and anorexia. She went on to experience post-natal depression, alopecia, self-harm, divorce and homelessness.
