A speaker who has lived it, studied it, and built a movement around it.
Emily Jacob is available for conferences, panels, and events. She speaks on sexual trauma, survivor recovery pathways, systemic gaps in support, and what organisations can do differently. Calm, direct, and grounded in both lived experience and 25 years of institutional leadership.


Emily brings something most speakers on this topic cannot: both sides of the story
She is a survivor of sexual trauma and a trauma recovery coach. She is also a former leader within NatWest, KPMG, Microsoft, Vodafone, and O2. She understands the embodied reality of recovery and the structural barriers that make it harder than it needs to be.
Her speaking style mirrors the ReConnected Life brand: calm, direct, intelligent, and never sensational.


- Topics Emily speaks on:
The gap between disclosure and therapy - and what organisations can do about it
Nervous system literacy for frontline professionals
What survivors actually need, and why current systems often fail to provide it
Healing without justice - why recovery and the legal process are separate journeys
Autistic and queer experience of trauma and recovery
Leadership, lived experience, and why the personal is still political
