Keynotes and Speaking
Mental health is talked about more than ever. It is understood less than people think. Kevin George does not deliver another generic wellbeing talk. He brings clinical authority, lived experience as a professional athlete, and a perspective shaped by growing up in adversity in south London to every platform he steps onto.
Mental Health in Professional Sport
Drawing on his experience as a former professional footballer, his clinical practice with elite athletes, and his research for Soccology, Kevin explores what the mental and emotional demands of professional sport actually look like, why existing provision so often fails players, and what genuinely effective support looks like.
Men, Masculinity, and Mental Health
Kevin examines why men and young men disengage from mental health services, what the cultural and psychological barriers actually are, and what approaches work in practice. This is one of the most requested topics across corporate, educational, and sporting audiences.
Trauma-Informed Leadership
Kevin explores how adverse childhood experiences shape adult behaviour, performance, and leadership, and what organisations and institutions can do to lead in ways that acknowledge and work with this reality.
Emotional Literacy and Performance
Kevin makes the case for emotional intelligence not as a personal development concept but as a performance variable, drawing on clinical practice and original research.
