This 1 hour 3 minute seminar features Nambitha Mpumlwana delivering a raw, candid, and deeply human exploration of how women and men understand themselves and each other. She opens with a powerful reminder that meaningful change begins with self-honesty. Drawing on her artistic background, cultural roots, and personal journey, she invites the audience to reflect on the stories they carry—stories of gender, heritage, hurt, resilience, and hope.
Throughout the session, she navigates themes of emotional responsibility, communication, and the generational patterns that shape relationships. Mpumlwana challenges both women and men to confront their assumptions and interrogate the roles they’ve inherited from family, society, and culture. She highlights how unresolved pain often drives behavior, emphasizing the need for healing, vulnerability, and intentional growth.
The seminar moves fluidly between reflection, humor, and hard truths. Mpumlwana speaks openly about identity, the search for belonging, and the importance of embracing one’s full humanity. She urges the audience to reclaim their voices, confront destructive patterns, and create healthier dynamics—whether in families, communities, or workplaces. Her message is clear: transformation requires courage, empathy, and a willingness to rewrite old narratives.
She closes with an appeal for collective responsibility. Women and men, she argues, must work together to build a world grounded in dignity, understanding, and mutual respect. The seminar ends on a note of empowerment, encouraging attendees to step into their purpose and leave behind the limiting stories that no longer serve them.
Speaker fees can vary depending on factors such as expertise, demand, and event specifics. While some speakers may charge a flat fee for their services, others may have hourly rates. It’s best to discuss fee structures directly with the speaker or their representative to understand the pricing model.
Virtual speaking appearances can indeed offer cost savings compared to in-person events. Virtual speaking rates are often 10-50% cheaper than in-person rates due to factors such as reduced travel expenses and logistics. This makes virtual events a cost-effective alternative for organizations looking to book speakers within a budget.
Keynote speeches typically range from 30 to 90 minutes, with the duration determined by the speaker’s expertise, the event’s agenda, and audience preferences. Keynote speeches often include a combination of inspirational stories, practical insights, and actionable advice tailored to the event’s theme or objectives.
The scale of the event and audience size can indeed impact a speaker’s fee. Larger events with a broader reach or higher attendance may command higher fees due to increased exposure and demand. Conversely, smaller events or niche audiences may offer opportunities for more flexible pricing arrangements.
Travel expenses such as transportation, accommodation, and meals are typically negotiated separately from the speaker’s fee. These costs vary depending on the speaker’s location, travel distance, and event duration. It’s important to clarify travel arrangements and expenses during the booking process to avoid misunderstandings.
Many speakers require a deposit to secure a booking, with the remaining balance due closer to the event date. Deposits are often non-refundable and serve as a commitment from both parties. It’s advisable to discuss deposit requirements and payment terms with the speaker or their representative when finalizing the booking.
