Transform teams through adversity with Sophie Storm Roberts, speaker specialising in resilience and high performance. Sophie works with organisations to develop mental fortitude, strategic leadership, and breakthrough achievement, delivering powerful frameworks based on her record-breaking alpine expedition experience.
Sophie Storm Roberts leverages her experience as a former high-growth tech leader and endurance athlete to guide individuals and teams to achieve remarkable results. She believes that challenge breeds growth.
From a non-athletic background, Sophie became the only person in history to climb the highest mountains in the eight Alpine countries and cycle between them. Her transformation from unfit and unsure of her purpose to taking on some of the world's most demanding challenges serves as a powerful testament to the role of courage and the power of the mind in pursuing the extraordinary.
She translates her experiences into tools and practical frameworks to ignite potential, achieve breakthroughs, and navigate adversity. She partners with leaders to cultivate the mental fortitude and strategic vision to navigate complex challenges and thrive in a competitive landscape.
Sophie is also the founder of TrailBlazers, an initiative to build confidence and courage in teenage girls. The programme provides tools and a supportive community to help them navigate the world and overcome the current mental health crisis.
Sophie's motivation stems from her journey of staying true to herself while seeking peer acceptance. Her experiences of being bullied in primary and secondary school, combined with her efforts to build confidence and resilience through self-challenge, inspired the creation of TrailBlazers. TrailBlazers' mission is to help girls thrive by developing confidence, courage, resilience, and life skills, ultimately changing hearts, minds, and lives.
Sophie's business, performance, and leadership background, combined with her lifelong fascination with human potential, fuel her mission of "Championing ordinary people to achieve their extraordinary."
She has empowered thousands of individuals to shatter their limitations, build unwavering confidence, and become unstoppable forces by fostering their emotional intelligence, resilience, and courage.

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.
