Finally, I am memoirist Katrina Collier! 🀩

My personal story waited too long to be out, inspiring others to heal. Now it’s available in print, digital and audiobook!

In the recruitment and talent acquisition community, I am known as a confident, opinionated and respected author and keynote speaker. I have worked with clients worldwide and spoken at the leading HR events on six continents. Kogan Page published two editions of my first book, The Robot-Proof Recruiter, which is revered in its niche and was short-listed for a Business Book Award. Wiley published my second book, Reboot Hiring, in 2024.

However, the belief that I have always been confident and self-loving belies the truth; it took years of self-work to heal my utter self-loathing and gain self-mastery. Whenever I receive praise, I think, ‘If only you knew how far I’ve come.’ Really far, and I have thrown all and sundry at healing through all manner of modalities and practises.

Now, as a memoirist and speaker, I inspire readers to heal; to know it’s possible. I was once riddled with self-loathing and insecurities. My teens, twenties and thirties were a toxic mess of bad choices and behaviour as I attempted to fill the void. But I found a way to self-love, care and compassion, and transformed my physical and mental health.

Anyone can heal their emotional wounds and feel significantly better. May my memoir motivate you to take a step.

I can say yes to things that scare me, like swimming to the Devil’s Pools at Victoria Falls, Zambia.
