Speaking Topics
The Power of a Business Book
Authoring a book can be the catalyst for much personal and professional growth, moving you from invisible to influential in your industry, while contributing to a more compassionate and connected world.
WRITING MEMOIR
A powerful process. Be clear about your motivation, message and audience. Find your natural voice and style. Explore a section of your life and reveal transformations.
POWERFUL CAREER STRATEGIES
Develop an enterprise mindset, polish your profile, publish content with a purpose, and add ‘author’ to your resumé to steer your career & stand out from the crowd. Be recognised as an ‘intrapreneur’.
The Age Advantage
More than ever, women over 50 (and even 60-plus) are starting something new rather than retiring. Combine wisdom and enterprise to write your new chapter.
CHANGE YOUR OWN STORY
Self-authorship is a life-long process. There are perfect times in our lives – often difficult ones – where we are gifted the opportunity to assess where we are, stop the old stories, and begin anew .

What others are saying
Bev Ryan knows her stuff. Her track record in empowering others to write and publish gives her great authority; but, more importantly, her warmth and energy shine through on stage. I was impressed by her stories of triumph, her industry insights and the practical tips she generously shares.
