Emma Jane Taylor is the voice you remember. A global force for truth, empathy and change, she speaks with lived experience and a courage that moves rooms. If you want impact that stays with your audience long after the event, book her.

Emma Jane’s focus is to live in a world where people are heard for who they truly are, not for what society expects them to be. She is often described as a fascinating speaker you should experience at least once. She is represented by Champion Speakers.

Emma Jane is recognised across the world as a force for good, liberating voices through her own brave presence and her unwavering support for survivors of CSA. Her work is rooted in lived experience, giving every engagement authenticity, depth and emotional power. This is why she has become such a compelling and trusted speaker today.

Her book Don’t Hold Back shares her deeply moving story. She writes with honesty about her childhood trauma and the long journey from CSA and abandonment to the confident, empowered woman she is today. She left school being told she was a failure. She transformed that pain into strength, becoming a global campaigner, the Founder of Project 90-10 Charity and the presenter of a TED talk titled It Is Not Just The Strangers You Should Be Careful Of. She is also the successful Founder of a series of lifestyle businesses under the umbrella of emmanation™, including StageWorks Performing Arts School, NutritiousWorks Fitness and Wellbeing and DiscoShuffle UK. Her life and work are reflected in her brand, a space dedicated to truth, courage and personal growth.

Throughout her career she has continued to study, learn and expand her knowledge. She has worked with some of the finest in her industry, always honouring the advice given to her by her step-father to never become complacent. After publishing her book in 2018 she discovered the healing power of public speaking and the authenticity it unlocked. In 2019 she coined the quote too positive to be doubtful, a phrase that now threads through her world and fuels her global campaign NotMyShame.

Emma Jane is not afraid to step into difficult and uncomfortable conversations. She gives women a voice, a space to be heard and the confidence to stand in their truth. Her laser like focus has guided many toward becoming the best version of themselves. She continues to be an inspiring choice of speaker, whether you are seeking to motivate change, empower your teams or bring meaningful conversation into your organisation. With Emma Jane it is always a win for your audience and a win for your mission.

She is respected and recognised across the world, and with her second book due to land in 2027 she continues to shape conversations that matter. Her voice, her courage and her unwavering commitment to survivors make her an exceptional choice for any International Women’s Day event.
