PepTalk Speech Bubble
Advocate for mental health awareness in athletes
Elise was 15 when she began to pursue her sporting dream, which led her to represent Team GB at the 2010 Olympic Winter Games. It was during this event that she achieved top ranking in the 1000m world rankings, making her the most successful British female short track speed skater to date.

With two European gold medals under her belt, Elise understands the dedication and determination required to reach the pinnacle of your sport. However, Elise has also experienced the pain of setbacks. At the 2014 Sochi Olympics, she faced three disqualifications, which had a profound impact on her mental health.

In response to the adversity she has faced, Elise has bravely spoken out about her mental health issues, aiming to break the stigma surrounding this topic. Through her social media platforms, she shares her own experiences to inspire others and encourage them to overcome their own challenges.

If you are searching for inspiration to overcome your own obstacles and take your game to the next level, Elise is the perfect person to turn to. She has proven that setbacks do not define you and that with resilience and determination, you can rise above any adversity.

Have all the speakers on the website previously worked with PepTalk?

Not necessarily. While the speakers listed on our website may not have worked with PepTalk in the past, they are recognized professionals in the industry and known to engage in similar events and engagements. We work with a wide variety of speaker agents and talent agencies to ensure we have the best selection of speakers, hosts, comedians and entertainers available.

Can I request a speaker to send a personal greeting?

We do not accommodate requests for birthday messages or any other personal, non-commercial contact with the speakers, comedians or entertainers.

How much do speakers and comedians cost?

We work with speakers across a variety of fee ranges, giving you the flexibility to choose someone who fits your event's needs. Virtual keynote fees in the UK and Europe typically start at £2,000, while in-person top-tier speakers can reach £25,000. In the US, virtual in-person fees range from $5,000 to over $100,000, depending on the speaker and format, such as after-dinner talks, conference keynotes, Q&As, or podcasts. Comedians generally start at £1,500 or $2,000 for a 20-minute set.

Our goal is to help you find the speaker who best matches your event’s goals and budget. We take the time to understand your event, objectives, and audience to recommend the right fit. The most expensive option isn’t always the best one, and our priority is finding the ideal speaker or expert for your needs; not the highest-priced one.
