Speaking, Events & Media
Talks and events that shift the way we see bodies, beauty, gender and mental health.
I’m Professor Phillippa Diedrichs – psychologist, body image expert, and someone who’s been obsessed with these topics since I gave my first school talk at age 13.
Now I speak to global brands, health professionals, journalists, policymakers and young people about the real-world impact of body confidence, beauty standards, gender stereotypes, diversity and inclusion – and how we can create change that sticks.
Science with heart.
Whether I’m on stage, in a boardroom, or running a workshop with a room full of teens or brand leaders, I bring scientific and cultural insights, life stories and a little bit of fire. I make complex psychology feel human, hopeful and easy to act on.
My goal? To help people think differently, live with purpose, and build societies that value diversity and unlock potential.
