Keynote Topics
A powerful, inspirational and entertaining keynote in which Carina Bruwer takes the audience on a journey through the extremes of challenging her own human and professional limits, in pursuit of progress and altruism. From turning a musical vision into reality against all odds, to brushing with death in pursuit of a childhood dream; from building a sustainable business from the Covid ashes, to marathoning through shark infested waters to feed starving musicians; and from breaking world records to standing strong against injustice in the face of the threat of losing her own home, Carina’s real life stories require no embellishment.
Through personal analogies, she shows with great effect how and why our imagination is our strongest asset, how to mediate with fear in order to manifest the ideas which may seem beyond our capacities, and how to continually access the strongest version of yourself to be able to confront life’s adversities.
The audience walks away with new tools to navigate a life and time where so much seems beyond our control, and to (re)discover their purpose and show up in a way that benefits their work, themselves, and those in their orbits.
Harnessing Your Platform for Positive Change
An inspiring keynote that explores the transformative power of using one’s platform for positive change. Through compelling anecdotes and actionable insights, attendees will discover how to leverage their influence to drive meaningful impact in their communities and beyond.
From advocating for social justice to championing sustainability initiatives, this session will empower individuals to step into their roles as agents of change. Whether you’re a leader, influencer, or passionate advocate, learn how to amplify your voice and make a difference in the world.
