Testimonials

Steph was fantastic. The talk was full of accessible concepts as well as practical tools and a really perfect blend of theory and practice... so much so, that I have spoken with my line manager about taking the Science of Happiness UC Berkeley course, so I can boost my skills in the sessions and meetings I hold with students.

The London School of Economics and Political Science (LSE)

Steph is such a charismatic and charming host, and the content is tangible and authentic. I could see people taking notes and nodding - and of course there was great audience interaction. I personally could have listened to Steph all day!

Internal Communication & Events Manager, Secret Escapes

My goodness, that's one of the best attended and responded to seminars I've ever run. Steph is fantastic.

What is Steph Peltier's speaking style like?

Steph Peltier structures her sessions around evidence-based frameworks drawn from positive psychology and neuroscience, translating research from sources such as UC Berkeley's Science of Happiness programme into practical exercises participants can apply directly. Her format typically combines a conceptual explanation of the underlying science with hands-on activities — such as short check-ins or shared workplace exercises — so attendees leave with concrete habits rather than theory alone.

What topics does Steph Peltier specialise in?

Steph Peltier's sessions cover social connection and relationship-building, workplace anxiety and stress management, and social fitness habits for colleague wellbeing. She trained in the Science of Happiness at UC Berkeley, having previously built a career in financial services and media.

What does 'typical fee range' mean?

Speaker fees vary based on factors like event location, format, and availability. The 'typical fee range' figure gives you a baseline of someone's local, in-person rate sits, and we'll confirm the exact fee when you get in touch.

What happens if I need to cancel or reschedule a speaker booking?

Life happens! Most speaker bookings can be rescheduled with reasonable notice. Cancellation terms vary by speaker, but PepTalk handles all the details & contracts transparently upfront so there are no surprises. Our team supports you through any changes, making the process as smooth as possible.

Have all the speakers on the website previously worked with PepTalk?

How far in advance should I book a motivational speaker?
