Teresa Clark

Teresa Clark is a transformational keynote speaker and the visionary Founder & CEO of The Wellness Revolution, a pioneering culture consultancy helping organisations redesign work for wellbeing. Known for her powerful presence and deep emotional resonance, Teresa speaks from lived experience, not theory. Her biggest achievement is transforming unimaginable personal tragedy into a career dedicated to human healing, growth, and social change. Today, she is one of the UK’s leading voices in post-traumatic growth, mental health, and workplace wellbeing, widely recognised for her ability to spark real transformation across industries and audiences.

Teresa’s early life took an unexpected turn when, aged 27, she caused a tragic accident that led to the deaths of three of her friends and a four-year prison sentence. This devastating experience became the turning point for her journey of accountability, healing, and rebuilding. Rather than shy away from it, she now shares her story with honesty and courage, inviting audiences to reflect on the radical power of choice, compassion, and responsibility. Teresa holds a BA in Printed Textile Design from the University for the Creative Arts, but it’s her lived experience that shaped her into the speaker and leader she is today - a woman who leads with heart and uses her voice to create space for difficult, necessary conversations.

Over the last two decades, Teresa has held several influential roles in the public and charity sectors. She was Vice Chair & Company Director at Key Changes, an award-winning charity promoting mental health through music, and later worked across the NHS, where she developed and delivered the CHOICES Recovery College, an initiative that won at the National Service User Awards in 2018. She also served as User Involvement & Vocational Manager for Barnet, Enfield and Haringey NHS Trust, where she led co-produced recovery strategies and culture change programmes for mentally disordered offenders. In 2019, she founded The Wellness Revolution, where she partners with forward-thinking businesses to embed wellbeing, compassion, and purpose at the heart of workplace culture. Her work has been featured by the BBC, The Telegraph, Radio 4, and Raconteur, and she was named one of the UK’s most influential mental health role models by the Inside Out Leaderboard in 2024.

Organisations choose Teresa because she brings truth, transformation, and practical tools to topics many shy away from - trauma, burnout, bias, and mental health. Her keynotes, including Inner Alchemy, Unpacking Unconscious Bias, and The Burnout Epidemic, combine raw storytelling with neuroscience, leadership insights, and lived experience. Teresa helps leaders and teams create cultures where people feel safe, seen, and supported.
