Being a team member down I was really worried about how this conference would go, but you allowed me to relax knowing everything was going to be okay. We really could not have pulled off the conference to this level without you.Rachel Luo, Early Childhood Council
There was standing room only for Miraka's session, and in our post-conference feedback she was one of the highest rated speakers. Everyone went away inspired and ready to communicate better.Jordan Dempster, Senior Content Manager, UBT
Miraka reads the energy in the room like magic, lifting it when needed and adapting seamlessly as things change. The feedback we received was incredible. Many said it was the best event the charity had ever hosted!Tracy Hemingway, event organiser
There's so much magic in listening to Miraka speak. I've laughed and cried when she's on stage, and always had so much to think about. When you get the chance to hear her speak, take it!!Belinda Thomas, Facilitator & Coach
Miraka is a true inspiration. Her inspirational workshop and messages have really gotten me to rethink my approach to work and inspired me to be braver about sharing the things I really care about with my coworkers.Doug Kim
As an MC she made sure we were looked after as organisers and took on some of the load liaising with the venue and AV team. If you want someone to be the glue that holds your conference together, Miraka is your girl!Early Childhood Council
Miraka is an outstanding, must-have keynote and motivational speaker. She's energetic, warm, inclusive, hilarious, memorable and highly contagious. A massive help for event organisers.Steph Prince
