Hashi Mohamed is a barrister, broadcaster, and published author. He joined The Honourable Society of Lincoln’s Inn in 2010 and completed his barrister training in London in 2012. Hashi now practises in public law, specialising in planning and environmental law, representing clients such as housebuilders and local authorities.

Hashi regularly contributes to publications, including The Times, The Guardian, Tortoise Magazine, and Prospect Magazine. His book, People Like Us: What it Takes to Make it in Modern Britain, was published in January 2020 and was selected as BBC Radio 4's Book of the Week. Hashi grew up in Brent, arriving in the early 1990s as an unaccompanied child refugee. He was raised on state benefits and attended underperforming schools. His second book, A Home of One's Own, addresses the housing crisis and was released in September 2022. He is available to speak at schools in the United Kingdom, at conferences, and at corporate events as a keynote speaker or a participant on a panel.

Life happens! Most speaker bookings can be rescheduled with reasonable notice. Cancellation terms vary by speaker, but PepTalk handles all the details & contracts transparently upfront so there are no surprises. Our team supports you through any changes, making the process as smooth as possible.

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

How far in advance should I book a motivational speaker?

Book a motivational speaker at least 3–6 months in advance, especially for popular speakers or large events. Top speakers get booked quickly, so earlier is always better. For major conferences or peak seasons, booking 12 months ahead ensures you secure your first choice.
