Charlie Webster is an extraordinary force of nature, serving as an inspiration to many. She is a renowned TV and radio broadcaster, podcaster, TEDx speaker, writer, and journalist who has made her mark globally, working with major TV networks, brands, and charities. Throughout her career, she has achieved numerous world firsts. Charlie made history as the first female football host in Asia and the first woman globally to anchor boxing, including a heavyweight world title fight. However, her most significant battle came in 2016 when she took on the epic challenge of cycling 3000 miles from London to Rio.
Unfortunately, she fell critically ill after contracting malaria and three other tropical diseases. Despite being given only 24 hours to live and being in a coma for two weeks, Charlie fought with the determination of a brawler and made a remarkable recovery. Today, she continues to excel in her profession, doing what she does best. Beyond her media accomplishments, Charlie is a sought-after international speaker. She has delivered keynote speeches at prestigious venues such as the US Senate, the UN, African governments, and the UK Parliament.
Last year, she gave a powerful TEDx talk on Post Traumatic Stress Disorder in collaboration with the NHS. In addition, she actively engages with young girls and women, serving as a female changemaker with projects such as UNF's Girl Up, The Female Lead, and Inspiring Girls International. Charlie's impact extends beyond her professional achievements. Her personal battle and her work in raising awareness about domestic and sexual abuse make her a true inspiration. Through her charity work and campaigning efforts, she touches the lives of many, making a positive difference in society. Charlie is undeniably a master in her field, and her resilience and dedication are the inspiration for us all.
Charlie brings a unique blend of resilience, groundbreaking achievements, and impactful storytelling to your event, inspiring your team to push beyond their limits. Her firsthand experiences in overcoming adversity and making history in male-dominated fields will empower and motivate your audience. Booking Charlie ensures your event is not just memorable but transformative, leaving attendees with actionable insights on perseverance, diversity, and leadership.

No. PepTalk adds no booking fee, so you pay the speaker's fee and nothing beyond it. The service, from shortlist through to contracts and event-day logistics, is included. For repeat or multi-event bookings, PepTalk can agree preferential rates with your procurement team.
Share your event date, audience, format, objectives and budget, and PepTalk sends a hand-picked shortlist within 24 hours. Each suggestion comes with a profile, a fee and a recommendation on the strongest fit. Once you choose, PepTalk handles contracts, travel and logistics through to event day.
The typical fee range is the speaker's standard in-person fee in their home market, shown in their local currency. It moves with format, location, date and session length: virtual sessions and shorter slots usually cost less, while international travel and peak dates cost more. Send your brief to PepTalk and the team will confirm the exact fee in your currency.
Not all of them, and it makes no difference to your booking. PepTalk's network of 15,000+ speakers covers talent the team works with directly alongside speakers represented by agents and agencies worldwide. PepTalk approaches the speaker, negotiates the fee and handles contracting either way.
Three to six months ahead is comfortable for most events, and 12 months is better for large conferences, peak-season dates or one specific in-demand speaker. Shorter timelines are workable, and PepTalk regularly fills last-minute and replacement bookings within days. Availability is the constraint, so get in touch as soon as you have a date.
