Hannam

Life in the messy middle. Out loud.

Scottish. Living in Hong Kong. Two books in, permanently mid-reinvention. I talk about the bit nobody puts on LinkedIn: changing your life, finding out who you actually are, and being seen as that person.

Book me to speak

25 years building brands and shaping how people think, for companies like Coca-Cola, Heineken and Emirates. Now I talk about the harder brand: you. Honest, funny, a bit sweary when the room allows. Any stage, any time zone.

Talk 01 · Reinvention

Off Script

What to do when life stops following the plan. Starting again after the career, the marriage or the version of you that used to fit. No platitudes, no ten-step framework. Just what actually helps.

Talk 02 · Personal brand

Who Owns Your Name?

You’ve built your career. Now build your name. Why your reputation belongs to you, not your job title, and how to make it work for you.

Talk 03 · Honesty

What Are You Pretending Not to Know?

The question that changes everything, at work and at home. What it costs to keep pretending, and what happens when you stop.

From F*cked to Fabulous book cover

From F*cked to Fabulous

Somewhere between the tears and the tantrums, I found her. Me.

The divorce book for the woman who spent so long being someone’s wife, someone’s mum, someone’s everything, that she forgot to be her own.

Not a Bali spa memoir. No crystals. Just 52 short, sweary, brutally honest chapters. Each one flips a myth you’ve been fed and gives you one move to make today.

Oops! Something Went Wrong

You didn’t get to write the title. You do get to write the next chapter.

A novel. Names changed to protect the guilty.
