She challenged us to think differently about innovation, fashion, culture, and even creativity in the age of AI, while sharing practical frameworks, best practices, and tools we could use right away. My students were inspired, energized, and engaged in meaningful conversations that lasted long after her presentation. She’s truly a world-class speaker and one I would invite again without hesitation.

Nova Lorraine’s presence at Edge of Tomorrow and in my marthaverse was transformative. Inviting her to speak was driven by a desire to guide our audience—creatives, technologists, and young professionals—through their real fears and hopes at the intersection of AI and purpose. Nova’s delivery combined deeply personal storytelling, bold insights, and palpable empathy; she didn’t lecture—she listened, illuminated, and connected, reminding us that meaning comes from relationships, not résumés. Her keynote landed with real impact. Attendees spoke about feeling “seen” and “re-inspired,” taking away not just frameworks but an urgent sense of possibility: that while AI transforms work, only human consciousness can transform life. The room buzzed with genuine conversations—about vulnerability, creativity, and rediscovering those “personal superpowers” that Nova so brilliantly champions. Nova Lorraine isn’t just a world-class speaker—she’s a catalyst for deeper connection and change. If any organization wants to move beyond the automation paradox and unlock true human potential, Nova's voice is the one that makes the difference.

The Institute of Professional Development was delighted to welcome Nova Lorraine as a keynote speaker at our Women in Leadership Conference, held on 19th November in Manchester. Nova delivered an inspiring and thought-provoking talk, sharing her personal experiences, insights, and best practices for overcoming gender bias, promoting equity, and advancing women in leadership roles. Her contribution was both powerful and practical, resonating strongly with our audience of leaders and aspiring leaders alike. In addition to delivering an inspiring keynote, Nova played a pivotal role in our panel discussion on “Pathways for Greater Representation of Women from Minority-Ethnic Backgrounds in Senior Leadership Roles.” She brought fresh perspectives and valuable reflections to a conversation that is both critical and timely—particularly in the context of the UK Government’s Parker Review of Race and Ethnicity on Company Boards. The 2023 update of the review highlighted encouraging progress, with 178 ethnic minority directors in the FTSE100 (47% of whom are women) and 188 in the FTSE250 (48% women). While these numbers remain modest, Nova underscored the power of voluntary targets and collective commitment in driving meaningful, sustainable change. Through her talk, she offered practical guidance on how both women and organisations can take intentional steps toward greater inclusion and leadership equity. Drawing from her book, UNLEASH YOUR SUPERNOVA, she spoke passionately about the importance of reigniting your inner power, the life-saving potential of knowing when to pivot, and the need to future-proof your mind, body, and business. Her contribution left the audience energised, empowered, and ready to take action. Nova’s passion, clarity, and authenticity left a lasting impression on our delegates. We are grateful for her contribution and highly recommend her as a speaker for any event focused on leadership, equity, and representation. She is a true powerhouse—charismatic, engaging, and inspiring.
