KEYNOTE SPEAKER | MEDIA | THE SELF-RESPECT REVOLUTION™
DR KATHERINE ISCOE
Redefining how we live, love and lead through the empowering lens of self-respect.



I’m a keynote speaker, media commentator and podcaster specialising in the unique connection between self-respect and self-leadership.
My research confirms that while self-esteem and confidence is important, self-respect is the true foundation for personal and professional growth. That’s why I’m oh-so passionate about learning about, leveraging and sharing the benefits of self-respect through honest conversations and practical advice.
