Trauma-informed Therapist, Award-winning L&D Educator, Human Intelligence Consultant, Penguin Random House Author, Global Keynote Speaker, 3 x Founder & social entrepreneur, Board member & peacemaker Natalia helps us understand how to heal and co-create a kinder, more intelligent and equitable world. She shares her voice to begin to remedy the world’s state of hustle, trauma, bias, disconnect, and disrespect. Her insights into the human condition and our profound need for healing, self-compassion, empathy, and human connection, inspire audiences to awaken their hearts, illuminate their patterns, meet their triggers, and step forward towards self-care and relational repair. She is a proud recipient of the Women Icons Asia Award (emerging entrepreneur) for social impact in the domain of trauma-informed culture transformation & self-mastery education. Natalia’s highly anticipated book ‘Why Am I Like This?’ launched last year with Penguin Random House.

Natalia is a 3 x founder, focused on social impact and has successfully worked along organizations that are 'before their time' through her skilled work in content strategy, eco-system building and community engagement. She has been integral to developing both organisational culture and social brand & content strategy for future-focused and socially minded organizations as a 'human intelligence' consultant, executive mentor and board member. She works only with leaders and organisations who are committed to deep reorganization, leaning into discomfort for systemic transformation, and finding the delicate balance between people and profit. Natalia brings an amalgamation of knowledge from years working as a therapist and clinic director with a focus on trauma & abuse recovery, as well as her own personal journey recovering from mental health misdiagnosis and physical health conditions that stemmed from childhood trauma. She has been developing equitable hybrid and health-focused organizational culture since2008 and working as a mentor and guide for close to a decade. In addition to her work with organisations, Natalia has been teaching trauma-informed open programs since 2017, last year launching her flagship 'Human Intelligence Leadership program' in both Singapore and the USA, attracting global and diverse participants, committed to personal development and social change.

Natalia's goal is to bring trauma work to the mainstream and bridge the gap between mental health, diversity equity, inclusion, and human sustainability. The goal is to restore the balance of peace, power, and vitality inside us and between us, and ignite a paradigm shift for leaders and generations of the future

SOCIAL IMPACT /DIVERSITY, EQUITY & INCLUSION / SELF DEVELOPMENT Keynote: The Laws of Peace and Power In this powerful keynote, Natalia Rachel shares the learnings she has integrated as a patient-turned-therapist who spent her entire life seeking to find a way to live a life of peace and power. Through her stories and concepts, you’ll peer through her beautiful kaleidoscope to explore trauma &oppression, the unconscious mind, the nervous system, attachment, and the way we evolve individually and collectively. If you’ve ever asked yourself the questions: ‘Why am I like this?’ or ‘How did the world end up this way?’, you will make sense of it all like never before. Rather than talking about privilege, race, or gender, Natalia zeros in on the fundamental experience of being human and belonging in the modern world. ‘Why Am I Like This?’ is the title of Natalia’s book, launched this year with Penguin Random House.

Keynote: Creating Equity Through Compassion While calls for equity increase, our ability to truly create it often remains out of reach. In this session, author, therapist and trauma-informed educator Natalia Rachel brings audiences out of their heads and into their hearts, taking the conversation to a place where we can all belong, regardless of race, gender or status. The inclusive world that we want to create begins with our own compassion, intention and expression. Prepare to be moved and inspired as Natalia explores the concept of equity from a very human lens that inspires a new way of thinking and demands a different kind of accountability and action.

CORPORATE WELL-BEING & CULTURE TRANSFORMATION Keynote: Time to Heal - Moving the Needle on Mental Health &Trauma If we really want to move the needle when it comes to mental health, we need to take the conversation deeper. In this keynote, Natalia Rachel highlights the importance of personal healing and self-mastery work as essential to culture transformation. She aptly connects the dots between mental health, diversity equity & inclusion, and sustainability, and provides a framework for leaders to embody and build a new way of living, and relating. Be prepared to go on an emotional journey where she shares her incredible personal story, and how the lessons she has learned can be leveraged to create sustained social impact. Participants will leave with empathy levels at an all-time high, and inspired to put their learnings into action.

LEADERSHIP AND CHANGE MANAGEMENT Keynote: Relationship as the Remedy While relationships are often the source of distress and dysfunction, they can also be the remedy. As leaders, we can harness the power of presence and relational intelligence to support significant improvements in the wellbeing, growth and development of our people. In order to do this, we need to understand the complex human experience, origins of bias and trauma, and how they decontextualize through individuals, communities, cultures and systems. In this mind-opening session, you will learn to perceive, express and relate in ways that are empathic, and empowering, and inspire radical change. Natalia’s relational approach will change the way you live forever.

PROGRAMS AND WORKSHOPS:

Human Intelligence Leadership Program - Human Intelligence Leadership Program is a journey of unearthing all our unconscious trauma and bias-fueled relating tendencies, and re-patterning ourselves to become the resources we need. In order to co-create a kinder, more intelligent world, we need to go back to the beginning, meet our origins of threat and exclusion, and co-create a new template for living, relating and creating that stems from safety and belonging.

Other Corporate Workshops Include: Regulation and Resilience Trauma is a human problem. As humans that want to show up and help, it's imperative that we learn the language of trauma and unlock our innate intelligence to support safety, healing, restoration and growth. This one day workshop provides a new perspective on supporting people through and beyond crisis The Keys to Energy Mastery In this one-day workshop, Natalia Rachel will take you on a journey to understand the nature of energy and develop strategies to master your personal energy and engage to optimize and charge collective energy.
