Hi, I'm
Dr. Jodi
Anxiety & Wellbeing Speaker,
Educator & Bestselling Author
Trusted by schools and organisations across Australia, I work with communities who want memorable, practical strategies to support staff wellbeing and student anxiety, helping people stay grounded, think more clearly, function well, perform under pressure, and more skilfully handle life’s curve balls - at work and at home.
Grounded in evidence and blending over 20 years’ experience across education, clinical practice and elite sport with lived experience, my sessions bring fresh insights, relatable humour, tools tailored to real-world pressures, and inspire meaningful, lasting change.

hear about my past work
It’s a rare combination to discover a speaker who speaks with credibility, but who also has the audience in the palm of her hand from the get go and yet this is what places Dr. Jodi Richardson apart from other speakers. She is outstanding with regard to both content and delivery.
Sandra Jelley
Psychologist | Senior Consultant Propsych, Melbourne
I would highly recommend Jodi as a keynote speaker; her ability to blend psychological insights and research with personal anecdotes and humour made her presentation very accessible to our delegates. Jodi was also a pleasure to work with in the run up to the event and very thoughtful when it came to tailoring her experience and expertise to meet our needs.

Jodi was bright, articulate insightful in the information she delivered. She was patient with the questions that were asked by the audience and offered practical tools and strategies for parents to use immediately. It was a joy to work with Jodi and have her at our school.
