About Dr. Ant
I’ve Lived It. I’ve Researched It.
Now I Show Leaders How to Create It.
I’m Dr Ant, keynote speaker, Mental Health Ambassador, and Mindset & Mental Health Trainer.
In 2015, I was at rock bottom. No hope. No way forward.
Then a robin landed by my side at the table where I was sitting, looked at me, and in that single moment, everything changed. Awareness returned. A decision was made. A life was saved.
That moment didn’t just save my life. It became my life’s work.
I turned that experience into a decade of research, earning my PhD in Business Mindset to understand exactly how the brain creates change. I built the Switched on Thinking methodology to show others how to create those transformational moments for themselves and their teams.
Now, as Patron of Mind Mid Kent and Ambassador for the Children’s Air Ambulance, I’m on a mission to help people understand how their brain works and overcome the mental challenges that hold them back in business life and beyond!

What Makes This Different
I don’t just talk about transformation. I’ve lived it, researched it, and now I show leaders how to create it.
My signature keynote combines vulnerability with authority, neuroscience with storytelling. Your audience doesn’t just leave inspired. They leave equipped with practical tools they can use immediately.
The Switched on Thinking® methodology isn’t motivational fluff. It’s evidence based, research backed, and adopted by businesses, and organisations across the UK because it delivers measurable results.
The Mission
That robin saved my life in 2015. Now I’m dedicated to creating those same moments of awareness for leaders and their teams.
Because transformation doesn’t always require months of work. Sometimes it requires a single moment of awareness, the right intervention, and the courage to act.
That’s what I show your audience how to do.
