Kirsty Hulse grew up on Stoke on Trent stages not quite able to do the splits.
Kirsty’s aunty, (actual aunty, not just someone your mum makes you call aunty) is Marilyn Jones, who founded the Marilyn Jones dance centre in Newcastle-Under-Lyme in 1977. Whilst many of her cousins went on to become professional ballet dancers, Royal Ballet principle soloists and entertainers, Kirsty accidentally found a more scenic route to the stage.
(She did win a trophy for a monologue of the BFG that she delivered at the Maccelsfield drama festival in 1996, so, you know, she was always destined for big things).
Now, Kirsty is a world leading motivational speaker.
She founded her first company at 26, a marketing agency with global clients like Virgin Atlantic and IBM, which turned over nearly a million dollars in its first year of trading.
She has delivered training programs to audiences of over 14,000 and her work has been described as “game changing”, “life changing” and from the thousands of people she has worked with, 100% of attendees would recommend her work to a colleague.
In 2017 she published a book on how flexible working was set to the future of business (nobody belived her).
She has spoken in some of the world’s largest arenas in over 30 countries and recently presented on improving creativity at perhaps the most creative place on earth, Walt Disney World.
She is also a standup comedian, having ran a two woman show at globally acclaimed Edinburgh Fringe in 2016, and brings this passion for humour into her work.
“Eveything Kirsty does is a shot of serotonin for the soul”
Kirsty and her work has been featured on Forbes, Metro, This Morning, Bustle, Happiful Magazine, alongside many others. Her previous book, “The Future is Freelance” was a finalist in the Start Up inspiration category in the business book awards.
She’s worked with Meta, Amazon, Linkedin, Spotify, Accenture and hundreds of other companies, huge to small.
1000s of people have benefitted from her passion, energy and enthusiasm, and whilst she still can’t do the splits, she never disappoints an audience.
