He tells his story of surviving 6 cancers and living with multiple treatments and surgeries, a breakdown, and other mental health challenges with humour and candour, recounting the highs and lows and all the lessons he’s learned along the way. He transforms the lives of audiences by talking, not just about illness but how you can make the most of yourself to live a life less ordinary.

Jonathan Acott has climbed some of the highest mountains both literally and metaphorically, swum lakes, run marathons and ultra-marathons, and lives his life to be the best version of himself physically and mentally and he shares how you can do the same in your personal or work life.

After a successful career spanning 35 years in the industry, with numerous roles from Salesman to Executive Director, he is a renowned authority on employee well-being to achieve results.

[M]enable was created on the back of Stephen’s own struggles, with a clear purpose and mission – to change cultures in male-dominated and performance-driven businesses, enabling the Mental Health stigma to be removed. Wanting leaders to embrace the ethos that when people feel good about themselves, they perform better, Stephen’s mantra is “positive employee outcomes = positive customer outcomes = positive business outcomes”.
