Belinda Stark is a powerhouse in the making – and now, the world knows it.

After completing ShellShocked Media’s Speak with Impact training, Belinda didn’t just stop there. She doubled down with our Crush Your Keynote intensive and the transformation has been phenomenal.

She now commands the room whether she’s delivering a keynote, speaking on a panel, or presenting a webinar. Her authenticity shines, her confidence is magnetic, and her message lands every time.

Belinda has done the work - and it shows. She’s not just speaking. She’s connecting. She’s not just presenting. She’s influencing.

I couldn’t recommend her more highly. If you get the chance to hear her speak - take it.

Belinda is a speaker who leads with heart. She has a remarkable ability to challenge audiences to think differently about what they believe, why they believe it, and how they can create change. Compelling, passionate, and hilariously funny, Belinda weaves her own powerful story of overcoming adversity with such vulnerability and courage that it leaves people deeply moved and motivated to take action in their own lives. I've had the privilege of hearing Belinda speak many times, each time walking away inspired with cheeks sore from laughter and eyes damp with tears. I would recommend Belinda without hesitation for any event looking for a speaker who not only entertains but truly moves people to think and feel differently.

Belinda shared her signature keynote at our recent Go-Getters Business Club, and all I can say is… wow.

She had us captivated from the moment she began, sharing with such authenticity and vulnerability that we felt like we were right there with her through every high and low.

There were tears of laughter, moments of deep empathy, and powerful takeaways we could instantly apply to our own lives. From the moment she wrapped up, we found ourselves repeating some of the clever phrases she used — and they’ve stuck with us ever since.

Belinda has a rare gift for taking you on a journey. Through her story and the wisdom she’s gathered, she shares her message in a way that is relatable, memorable, and deeply impactful.

She’s the real deal — she speaks from the heart, with eloquence and compassion… and she’s left a lasting impression on us all.

Last year I invited Belinda Stark to join me in speaking to a group of women from my practice about menopause. As she runs a podcast about 'midlife' and its highs and lows and had spoken honestly about her own journey in this realm, I knew she would be well received and a good balance for my more health/physiological slant on the subject.

Belinda spoke for 30 minutes and was warm and engaging in telling her story as well as sharing her lovely sense of humour. It was wonderful to share a conversation about this potentially tumultuous part of a women's journey that needs to be discussed more openly.

I'm grateful to Belinda for her courage to step up and speak out about her struggles and challenges with alcohol and midlife. This creates a space for vulnerability and honest sharing in a group situation, allowing for insights and healing. I would thoroughly recommend her podcast and her skills as a speaker and women's midlife coach.
