Leaders in resilience, endurance, and problem-solving under pressure
Miriam Payne and Jess Rowe are the pioneering ocean rowers behind Seas The Day, an all-female Gen Z team who became the first women to row non-stop and unsupported across the Pacific Ocean from mainland to mainland, completing 8,213 nautical miles in 165 days.

Miriam, who previously rowed the Atlantic solo in record time in 2022, holds a degree in Physics with Astrophysics from the University of Leeds. Jess brings seven years of yachting experience and currently works in superyacht navigation. Together, they raised nearly £100,000 for The Outward Bound Trust whilst breaking multiple world records on their Pacific crossing from Peru to Cairns, Australia.

Their journey demonstrates practical problem-solving under extreme conditions. During their crossing, they repaired critical equipment failures including their power system and emergency water maker whilst battling 30-foot waves, sleep deprivation, and physical injuries, maintaining focus and morale in spite of difficult circumstances.

Audiences learn specific techniques for managing setbacks, building effective partnerships under pressure, and planning complex projects with multiple variables. Miriam and Jess share practical frameworks for stepping outside comfort zones and maintaining positivity during extended challenges.

Book Seas the Day to inspire your team with a fresh perspective on overcoming adversity through ingenuity, collaboration, and determination.

We work with a wide variety of speaker agents and talent agencies to ensure we have the best selection of speakers, hosts, comedians and entertainers available.

We do not accommodate requests for birthday messages or any other personal, non-commercial contact with the speakers, comedians or entertainers.

Virtual keynote fees in the UK and Europe typically start at £2,000, while in-person top-tier speakers can reach £25,000.

Our goal is to help you find the speaker who best matches your event’s goals and budget. We take the time to understand your event, objectives, and audience to recommend the right fit. The most expensive option isn’t always the best one, and our priority is finding the ideal speaker or expert for your needs; not the highest-priced one.
