We were very fortunate to have Amelia Ryan host our fundraising dinner last year. Amelia not only ensured that the night ran smoothly and according to schedule, she was also a highly engaging MC and performer. With her natural charisma and great sense of humour, Amelia made the night a success!’

Keynote: How To Create...Anything
In this entertaining, action-driven and motivating keynote, I take you through my 5 proven steps to create..well, anything!
In this talk we get personal, as I share the trials, tools, and tribulations I used to transform from 'Queen of the Clusterf#ks"* to 'Queen of Clarity'.
*Don't worry, I can omit the colourful words.
Using my NLP training, the audience will walk away with proven techniques that they can apply to their own lives and creative goals, to step out of their comfort zone and make sh!t happen.
You want an inspiring, funny, motivating talk that will get your audience out of confusion and into clarity using action-based steps.
Keynote: A Storm In A D Cup
I believe we've all got an incredible story to share, and by sharing mine through hilarity and humanity, I empower others to do the same - without question or apology.
By intertwining the stories I've been sharing across the globe for the past decade (the shitty, shameful and shiny ones!), I take the audience on the colourful ride that's been my life, and the various (and volatile!) 'storms I've navigated along the way. From growing up with a gay dad and trans-step mum, to losing my sister to a brain tumour, to the 'career highlight' of baring all as an Exotic Dancer, my story is one of perspective, resilience, and unbridled honesty. I'd love to share it with your audience.
I can even throw in a song to boot.
You want to laugh, think, feel...and you want your audience to feel empowered to celebrate and truly own their own story.

Amelia Ryan is one of my very favourite performers. Not just because she's brilliant, but because, talented as she is, she is all about her audience. She know's she is there to entertain. And that she does. In spades. And she's a lovely person to boot. Some people get all the luck.

Amelia Ryan was the consummate MC for our Made in Adelaide gala in Edinburgh. She reads her audience brilliantly and her warmth and wit has them eating out of the palm of her hand - and laughing all the way home.
