Bart Walsh
Cancer. Infant loss. A degenerative neurological condition. Bart Walsh hasn't just studied resilience, he's built it. And he'll give your team a framework to face anything.
Bart Walsh is one of Australia's most sought-after resilience keynote and motivational speakers, and the reasons why become clear about thirty seconds into his talk.
He's not drawing on theory. He's drawing on cancer at 23, the loss of his firstborn son Aurélien, and a degenerative neurological condition he's still navigating today. Three chapters that would break most people. For Bart, they became a framework.
His signature keynote, The Three Rules of Resilience, gives audiences a clear, practical structure to move from a victim mindset to one of ownership fast. No hype. No vague inspiration. Just tools your people can use on Monday morning.
His second keynote, 1% Better, takes that same philosophy into health and performance, showing teams how small, consistent daily actions compound into lasting change. It's practical, evidence-based, and built for real people with real schedules.
Before his career in health and performance, Bart trained as an actor, a background that shows. He commands a room the way few speakers can, blending storytelling, humour, and structured insight into an experience that lands emotionally and sticks practically.
As former Head Coach of Jetts Fitness Australia, Bart has shaped the health and performance of hundreds of thousands of people. He brings that same depth of expertise to every corporate stage, connecting physical wellbeing, mental resilience, and high performance in a way that resonates across every level of an organisation.
One of Australia's most inspiring speakers, Bart works with teams navigating pressure, burnout, uncertainty, and change across corporate, government, mining, and health sectors nationwide.
Available for conferences and corporate events across Australia, Bart leaves audiences with more than a good story. He leaves them with a mindset shift, a clear framework, and the confidence to use it.
What makes Bart different from other resilience speakers:
- Former Head Coach of Jetts Fitness Australia - he understands performance culture from the inside
- Trained actor - his stagecraft, authenticity and audience connection are exceptional
- 15+ years as a health and corporate coach - everything he delivers is evidence-based and practical
- Presents Australia-wide and globally, in person and virtually
Bart speaks on: Inspirational Story | Resilience | Mental Wellbeing | Change Management | Health & Wellbeing in the Workplace.
Best suited for: Corporate conferences, leadership offsites, wellbeing days, sales kickoffs, PD days, mining and resources, government, education, and health sectors.
Audiences consistently describe Bart's keynotes as the most memorable of the event, and the most useful on Monday morning.

The Three Rules of Resilience
Most teams don't struggle because they lack talent or drive. They struggle because nobody ever gave them a framework for navigating adversity.
In this keynote, Bart Walsh draws on three of the most defining challenges a human being can face - a cancer diagnosis, the loss of a child, and a degenerative neurological condition - and distills them into three clear, actionable rules your team can apply immediately.
This isn't a talk about surviving hardship. It's a...
