Testimonials for Julia Grace
I loved Julia's sense of humour and authentic approach while speaking. The practical handout and simple solutions in Session 2 were brilliant. Both sessions went really quickly as we were all entertained while listening with bated breath for every piece of advice. Beautiful voice- which gives change in pace while delivering content.
Kingsway College
I personally, cannot speak more highly of Julia. Her flexibility to accommodate COVID restrictions and still deliver something personal, fun and informative was outstanding. Her flexibility in understanding what we were looking for her to present and then presenting on Zoom was exceptional. She was able to engage and hold peoples focus and participation despite the zoom limitations.

What an amazing, relatable speaker. Julia’s keynote made us laugh, made us cry and made us think. Her approach to the topic of Mental Wellness was heart-warming and provided tools we can now implement with our team. I can’t recommend her enough.

Julia Grace was incredible - brought insight and clarity for everyone to the area of mindhealth and good practices in this space. She brings such warmth and down to earth humour which then opens the way for people to hear the gold - the truth about the spectrum of mental wellbeing, practical tips and strategies to help everyone cope, and stories that show she comes from a place of experience, empathy and wanting to empower others. Julia was a breeze to work with - happy to fit in with what we wanted, totally adaptable and I believe would be relatable to any audience (no matter the age, stage, culture or beliefs). Her talk is extremely relevant and important to everyone!

She's the type of communicator who relates to a wide audience and personally I believe more people would benefit from hearing her speak.

It is a privilege to recommend Julia Grace as a speaker of the highest calibre. I first heard Julia Grace speak at an Association of Integrated Schools conference. I was amazed at her ability to relate to the audience on the often complex topic of well-being. I approached her and invited her to address KingsWay staff at the upcoming annual staff retreat. Staff were glowing in her praise, with many indicating afterwards that Julia made the staff retreat the best ever. Julia is engaging, practical and encouraging. I cannot speak highly enough of her sessions and have committed to engaging her to speak to our students and parents.
