YOUR Speakers

Grace Andrews

Over the past five years, I’ve been at the helm of Steven Bartlett’s brand, growing it from a small but mighty following to an audience of millions across platforms. When I joined The Diary of a CEO, we had just 8k YouTube subscribers. Today? Over 9 million subscribers and more than a billion views. It’s the second biggest show in the world, but for me, it’s always been about more than the numbers. It’s about nurturing real communities and helping audiences feel seen, heard, and inspired.
