Speaker
Confidence, Presence & Reinvention at Every Stage of Life
With a background in national media, broadcasting and publishing, I deliver keynote talks and workshops that combine lived experience with practical, relatable insight.
As a former broadcaster, published author and celebrity stylist, I speak on confidence, visibility, reinvention, style psychology and creative storytelling — connecting with audiences through honesty, experience and real-life perspective.
Previous media appearances include BBC TV, ITV, Sky News and national radio. I am experienced in engaging diverse, international audiences.
I am available as a keynote and guest speaker for conferences, corporate events, women’s networks, literary festivals and cruise ship enrichment programmes.
If you are curating a speaker who brings credibility, warmth and substance to the stage — or onboard — I would be delighted to hear from you.

Ice Breaker - Get to know your fellow writers

Love or Hate - Get readers to invest in your protagonists
Backstories - Making characters three dimensional
Narration - Is the narrator omniscient?
'Ceril's writing technique was super evocative and the girl's traumatic journeys and the shame they were experiencing felt quite real and vivid. All in all, this book is about friendship, luxury, suffering and the power of real-bonds. The end offers quite a twist and I would definitely keep on reading Campbell's future novels, since she's proven to be a gifted author.'
Amazon Review
'Ceril's writing style is fast-paced, making it easy to deep dive into the pages. She goes for an omniscient POV too, which is my nemesis 99,9% of the time. However Secrets in the Dark belongs to that 0.01%, because this is how you handle omniscient. The switching is there, it's-for lack of a better word-quick, even unobtrusive, not as ponderous as it often happens with this POV. I guess this is the only omniscient book I ever enjoyed to the fullest - well done'
