Keynote speaker
Meddy Goossens

An honest story about resilience, connection, and awareness

"I have transformed my personal story into a powerful message about mental resilience, awareness, and connection."

Meddy Goossens knows what it feels like when life suddenly takes a completely different turn than you could‘ve ever imagined. What happened to her changed her life, but it does not define who she is. The foundation of her story is her choice not to remain stuck in shame, but to move forward and transform her experience into strength. Meddy turns her personal experiences into a powerful message about mental resilience, awareness, and human connection.

In her keynote, she shows how it is possible to grow stronger, even in difficult circumstances.

She highlights the impact our behavior can have, both online and offline, and how much difference we can make in each other’s lives.

This keynote is both a personal testimony and a call to action. A call to parents, teachers, managers, and public leaders. To anyone who has ever wondered: What should I have said? And to everyone who wants to know what they can do instead.

About Meddy

More than just a
story

As a crisis management expert, Meddy worked for years alongside police, fire departments, and public officials. As a politician, she also knows what it feels like when your personal story becomes public property. This makes her keynote more than just a personal story: it is a mirror held up to everyone who is in a position to make a difference. And ultimately, that is all of us.

SHAMING

I wrote a book. About what it feels like to unwillingly end up naked on the internet. What happens when the media mentions your name, but not your truth. How digital humiliation can tear apart your career, your relationships, and your future. Unless you decide to transform that pain into something else.

For more than ten years, Meddy unwillingly became the subject of other people’s stories. But this is her story: raw, unfiltered, and honest.
