Ryan Campbell helps organizations transform team culture and mental health through his unique journey from record-breaking pilot to resilient survivor. Known for his record as the youngest person to fly solo around the world before surviving a life-changing crash, he brings rare insight into how people and organizations can reset, rebuild, and thrive.
Ryan's record-breaking flight earned him a Guinness World Record and placed him among Australia’s 50 great explorers, but two years later, a catastrophic crash left him with a paraplegic diagnosis. His long and demanding recovery back to walking became a turning point, offering a deeper understanding of burnout, anxiety, adversity, and the limits of sheer determination. What reshaped his perspective was an unexpected source of joy: a 1960 pink Cadillac that sparked the framework he now teaches to teams worldwide.
Today, Ryan works with organizations across industries, delivering keynotes and workshops grounded in accessible, practical tools that improve wellbeing, strengthen culture, and support sustained performance. His Joy Audit method provides a simple approach that enables people to step back, reconnect with what matters, and return with greater clarity and capacity.
Audiences gain strategies for balancing pressure with recovery, reframing resilience, and building workplaces where people feel energised, connected, and able to show up at their best. Ryan helps teams shift from reactive endurance to intentional action, creating environments where wellbeing fuels performance rather than competes with it.
Book Ryan to share a powerful perspective on resilience and mental health, offering organizations grounded, human-centred tools for navigating change and building cultures that last.
