Memoirist Katrina Collier

Finally, I am memoirist Katrina Collier! 🤩 My personal story has waited too long to be shared, but it is time that it heads out into the world to inspire others to heal.

I am known in the recruitment and talent acquisition community as a confident, opinionated and respected facilitator, author and keynote speaker. Over the past 13+ years, I have worked with clients worldwide and spoken on stages on six continents. My first book was published by Kogan Page and The Robot-Proof Recruiter, is revered in its niche and was short-listed for a Business Book Award in 2020. My second book, Reboot Hiring, was published by Wiley in 2024.

But the belief that I have always been this way belies the truth; it took work to heal my utter self-loathing and gain self-mastery. Whenever I receive words of awe I think, gratefully, ‘If only you knew how far I’ve come.’

I feel it is my duty to share my story to inspire others to heal. I want people to know that I was once riddled with self-loathing and insecurities; my teens, twenties and thirties were a mess. I made monumental mistakes and behaved dreadfully in an attempt to fill the void. But I found a way to self-love, care and compassion, and became happy and confident.

Anyone can take the first step to feeling significantly happier than yesterday. I hope my memoir motivates them to take a step.
