“Magogodi is radiant when speaking.”

Magogodi (she/her) is known for reaching into your heart cavity and expanding that space within the span of a single sentence. She inspires folks toward purposeful action through her signature approach of unlocking the interconnected humanity in each of us.

She’s spoken at leading organizations like Unilever, MasterCard, The BBC, Washington Post, United Nations and MercyCorp.

She’s led workshops worldwide—from New Zealand to Ireland—sharing the stage (and dance moves!) with Nobel laureates like Archbishop Desmond Tutu and fellow creatives like Arundhati Roy and U.S. poet laureate Joy Harjo.

Belonging & Otherness

Despite catch phrases like "Bring your whole self to work", many organizational cultures still struggle to make folks feel fully seen and heard.

Magogodi helps you craft a culture designed to embrace the singularity in each of us. This talk gives you tools to liberate and tap the unique value every member of your community brings.

Creativity & Storytelling

Stories make us whole. 

When you challenge yourself to understand someone’s full story, you’re essentially witnessing their humanity. And in sharing your full story, you invite others into shared experience and purposeful action. This talk challenges you to craft your most powerful story.

Work & Worth

In a culture that foregrounds what you do for a living with your worth as a human, work itself can become dangerous. 

What you do for a living is not your worth as a human, even as your work helps fulfill your life purpose. Magogodi helps you tap the power of your ambition without questioning your worth.
