Thinking Differently

Kate is the ultimate ‘Ronseal Kid’ with an extraordinary 15 year journey of resilience after being ‘buried alive’. Her story will literally blow your minds or your money back!

Kate wrote her internationally published book “Running Free: Breaking out of Locked in Syndrome” 2011 and seen on This Morning, The One Show, Australia, America, India, Germany, South Africa etc.
Kate is a TEDX speaker, charity founder and global young stroke advocate and researcher.  She was awarded an Honorary Doctorate in 2018.
She came out of a coma at 39 and was considered vegetative, but wasn’t, and doctors wanted to switch off her life support. But astonishingly Kate recovered to prove everyone wrong.
Over the 15 years since, she lost her physical health, jobs, business, self worth, career, charity, wellbeing, her children, many friends and walked away from a controlling marriage.  Kate’ is considered inspirational and strong bit that has denied her what it cost her to survive.  This is perhaps her untold story.
She proves the healing power of the brain and the strength of the human spirit to manifest the kind of life that matters to her.
By thinking differently, Kate has done the unimaginable and made a huge impact on the lives of global stroke survivors, clinicians and the NHS leadership.
Kate has proved what is possible after a massive brainstem stroke and is now even stand up paddle boarding and influencing national inclusion policy and education in the UK.
Kate proves what can be achieved when you dream big, try hard, fail painfully (though they are really learnings) and then try even harder.
As Kate says, it’s not impossible,  but I’m possible!

What people say

Kate was remarkable and had over 1,000 GPs and students spellbound – I anticipate her rating as one of the highest of conference, and you know that the standard is excellent generally. I can also recommend her book ‘Running Free’.
