3 inspiring stories, 3 strong voices. And so much impact! Thank you for making an #impact, Imogen!
About Imogen:
Story has always been central to what I do. I wrote my first novel at sixteen (long before I understood storytelling!) and later spent twelve years in corporate communications across London, Sydney, and Hong Kong. Those years showed me how powerfully language shapes belief, behaviour, and momentum—especially in moments of change.
Today, I run the Asia business for Write the Talk, working with leaders and organisations to help them navigate complexity with clarity and confidence.
Alongside this, I've built a creative life as a writer and screen storyteller. I co-founded an Australian production company focused on telling fierce female stories, producing award-winning work that has reached audiences around the world. I have two novels coming out this year, published by independent publishers in the US and Europe.
Across everything I do, story is the through-line. It's how change becomes human, how leadership builds trust, and how people find the confidence to speak in their own voice. And perhaps most importantly, how we find our tribe.

Thank you for making an #impact, Tony!
About Tony:
Tony Loyd is a former Fortune 500 executive who knows what it means to endure.
As a lifelong marathoner, Tony has raced across continents, always chasing something deeper than a finish line. But in 2025, everything changed. After cancer surgery reduced his lung capacity by 25 percent, he faced a different kind of endurance challenge: learning how to keep going when the path forward looks nothing like the one behind you.
Now he's training for the 2026 Age Group World Championship marathon—on a mission to discover what it takes to get 100 percent out of 75 percent of his lungs. That journey—equal parts grit, humility, and science—mirrors the message he brings to leaders around the world.
Tony is a TEDx speaker, best-selling author, and host of Social Entrepreneur, a podcast ranked in the top 1 percent globally. Through keynotes, workshops, and executive coaching, he equips mission-driven leaders to endure, adapt, and create lasting impact.
Tony's message isn't about "bouncing back." It's about moving forward—deliberately, authentically, and together. Because resilience isn't an individual trait. It's embedded in the organization's texture.
That is The Endurance Advantage.
