Josh Roberts is a writer, broadcaster, and public speaker specializing in mental health.
In 2016, Josh experienced a severe mental breakdown, resulting in a diagnosis of Generalised Anxiety Disorder (GAD). After writing about his experience in an article for The Times, Josh received an overwhelming response from others who had also faced similar situations.
Determined to help as many people as possible by sharing his own experiences with anxiety and mental health issues, Josh wrote his first book, "Anxious Man," which was praised by Stephen Fry as "required reading."
Since then, Josh has brought his message to conferences and events at prestigious companies such as Google, Vodafone, Goldman Sachs, and many more.
If your company is seeking an uplifting talk that delves deep into the core of mental health issues in the workplace today, look no further than Josh.

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.
