Inspirational Speaking for Businesses & Teams
Annika Bevington is a sought-after speaker and workshop leader, frequently invited by businesses looking to motivate, inspire, and empower their teams. With over two decades of experience in the corporate world—including a leadership role at Google—combined with her profound personal journey of resilience and transformation, Annika brings a unique perspective that deeply resonates with leaders and teams alike.
In an era where AI and automation are reshaping the workplace, the true competitive edge for leaders is not about becoming more robotic—it’s about becoming more human. Self-awareness, emotional intelligence, and the ability to stay grounded under pressure have never been more critical.
Annika’s story is one of strength, reinvention, and transformation, much like the Phoenix rising from the ashes. She challenges teams and leaders to embrace challenges as opportunities, and step out of victimhood into true empowerment.
Annika has also tailormade workshops for clients such as the online Working Parents Workshop called “We can’t do it all, so let’s rewire our brains”. Feel free to contact Annika with your specific request.
“Great leadership isn’t learned from a book—it’s embodied through deep, intentional work that rewires the brain and transforms the way you lead.”
The Embodied Leader™️ is a leadership program initially crafted for Annika’s colleagues at Google and is designed to empower individuals to lead with authenticity and an increased level of emotional intelligence. Through a unique blend of self awareness practices, somatic coaching, and leadership training, participants are guided to cultivate a deeper connection between their physical, emotional, and mental states.
By integrating these elements, The Embodied Leader™️ helps leaders tap into their innate wisdom, resilience, and presence, enabling them to navigate challenges with confidence. Embracing the principles of embodied leadership, participants are equipped to lead from a place of alignment, purpose, and compassion, inspiring positive change within themselves and their organisations.
The workshops can be tailor made to fit the needs of the business and be divided into one, two or four workshops of 90 mins each. The optimal group size is between 10 to 15 participants.

Annika is often invited to share her powerful story in an intimate, open setting—one that fosters honest conversations and deep reflection. This Fireside Chat is a safe space to explore life’s toughest adversities and how they can become catalysts for personal growth.
How did she do it? How did she find her way to the other side? And how does she live in deep gratitude despite the brutal violence her family endured?
Through raw insights and heartfelt reflections, Annika shares the lessons she’s learned from one of life’s greatest challenges—offering inspiration, hope, and a new perspective on resilience.
The session concludes with a guided exercise designed to spark self-awareness, curiosity, and a lasting shift in how we navigate life’s challenges. The Fireside Chat typically lasts an hour, with time afterward for personal reflections and questions.
Join in on a conversation that just might change the way we see our own journey.
