Natasha Williams Speaking
The Voice Behind the Data

Natasha Williams

Lead Researcher, Wellbeing Strategist & Somatic Expert

Natasha does not deliver generic corporate motivation. She delivers systemic intervention. Combining 14+ years of executive leadership as a Director of Building Surveying with deep expertise in organisational psychology, Natasha speaks the language of the boardroom.

Having personally survived a career-induced burnout that required hospitalisation, Natasha spent over a year recovering in Jamaica, where she qualified as a trauma-informed somatic resilience coach.

Today, as the founder of The Cost of Black Excellence Research Institute, she synthesises the in-depth data of 98 UK Black professionals with profound somatic intelligence, proving to corporate leaders that employee exhaustion is not a personal failure, but a structural extraction.
