Helping people think clearly when life gets complicated.

Hello there, I’m Dr Katherine Iscoe, a keynote speaker, author, mentor, recovering overthinking-people-pleaser, Canadian by birth, and Dubai resident by choice.

How we can work together

Welcome, I'm so glad you're here.

My website is currently being refreshed. I’m simplifying things so the site better reflects my current work.

If you’d like to discuss a speaking opportunity, podcast interview, mentoring for your teenage daughter, a collaboration, or simply connect, I’d love to hear from you.

About me

I help people spend less time in their heads so they can spend more time moving forward. These days, most of my work revolves around self-respect, overthinking, and the strange things we humans do when we’re trying to be liked.

For a long time, I struggled to talk about achievements without feeling nauseous. These days, I can say I’m proud of them. I’ve been a tech CEO, served on boards, graduated summa cum laude, spoken for organisations including Ferrari, Medtronic, and Chevron, and been featured in publications such as Cosmopolitan and Vogue.

These (and other) experiences shaped both my life and my work. It taught me that lasting change rarely comes from thinking more. It comes from understanding what’s actually happening inside our minds, so we can stop fighting ourselves and start moving forward.

How we can work together

There are a few ways we can work together depending on where you are right now.
