Big Ideas, Real Impact.
Real conversations that shift how audiences show up in their lives, careers, and businesses.
tHE APPROACH
I speak the way I coach: honest, warm, and rooted in real transformation. My talks blend personal storytelling with practical frameworks — the same insights drawn from over a decade coaching individuals through career pivots and business launches, plus 16+ years in recruiting where I've negotiated millions of dollars in salary and equity.
My clients have gone on to launch strategic advisory firms, marketing agencies, wellness companies, product lines, and creator businesses, building the audacious lives, careers, and businesses they actually wanted.
Whether I'm on a keynote stage, a workshop room, a panel, or a livestream, my goal is the same: to move audiences from insight to action. From "that was inspiring" to "I know exactly what I'm doing on Monday."
Every talk is designed with the audience in mind — customized to your event's theme, your industry, and what you want your people walking away with.
THE SPEAKER
Wemi Opakunle is a life, career, and business coach, sought-after speaker, and author whose social media content reaches millions worldwide. She has delivered keynotes and workshops at Netflix, Soho House, and the National Sales Network conference, among others.
Her talks meet the moment audiences are in — mental health awareness initiatives, women's leadership summits, ERG events, corporate off-sites, cultural conversations. Her signature topics include audacity and self-belief, navigating uncertainty, presence in the workplace, getting out of your own way, trusting your own authority, the art of pivoting, and the power of "delulu" thinking. Her forthcoming book, Big Delulu Energy (Park Row Books / HarperCollins), is scheduled for release on April 27, 2027.
Netflix ERG EVENT:
ucan mental health matters month
"Wemi is an inspiration! As the spotlight speaker for Mental Health Matters Month: Wellbeing & Resilience, Wemi's "Presence in Times of Uncertainty" presentation was incredibly impactful for our ERG community. We received an overwhelming amount of positive feedback from both IC's and leaders, grateful for the invaluable perspective shift and tools Wemi introduced in her discussion."
— Tracy Pope Leader, Mental Health Employee Resource Group (ERG)
Behind the scenes
“Wemi’s talk cracked me wide open in the best way. I didn’t expect to feel so seen, so stirred, so
ready. Something she said just clicked, and I could literally feel the shift happening inside me. I walked in curious, but I walked out energized, clear, and deeply motivated to take action. I’m not the same person I was before that session.”
— Sharon M.
BEYOND INSPIRATION
What audiences walk away with:
A reframe of what's possible for them right now
Practical tools they can use immediately
The clarity and audacity to make decisions they've been avoiding
A shared moment of connection and honesty in a room full of strangers
AS SEEN In…
“It was an absolute pleasure working with Wemi for our In Conversations: On Purpose event at Soho House. She has a rare gift for speaking directly to each individual in the audience, making them feel like the only person in the room. Her presence and insight bring people out of their shells and into a new way of being, thinking, and seeing. Everyone left the event feeling deeply moved and inspired by her work. I deeply admire the impact she is making in people’s lives and the world around her.”
— Emily Wiseman, Former Head of
Membership & Member Events, Soho House
Thank god It’s monday LIVE EVENT
“I don’t even have the words to explain how everything I feel she said was meant for me. As an affirmation that you are on the right path, you are exactly where you need to be...and I can’t wait to see where this journey is going to take me.”
—Event Attendee, The Den Meditation Center
