Mark Mathews speaking
Inspiring

In a word, it was phenomenal! I’m having a hard time finding the right words to describe Mark. Not just the message he delivered or the authenticity of his delivery but what he stand for and who he is. We are growing and facing big waves and his message could not have been more on point. He spoke to our core values and honestly to our hearts. He is hands down the best presenter I’ve worked with and heard, and all of us at Cordial are cheering him on and wholeheartedly believe he will ride that big barrel again.

Entertaining

I have worked with many speakers over the years and Mark is by far one of the best. His powerful stories, excellent visuals and relaxed, authentic delivery had the audience captivated right from the start. His advice was simple, honest and most importantly - actionable. I have never received so much positive feedback about a guest speaker than I have following Mark's session. In fact, it was so positive, we immediately engaged him for another event. I have absolutely no hesitation in recommending Mark and I sincerely hope I get to hear many more of his awesome stories!

Tailored

Mark was a captivating speaker, telling his story to over 1,000 workers in the coal mining industry. He is able to relate to people from all different walks of life and makes the story meaningful for every person who gets the privilege to hear him. He was able to effortlessly link his story to the theme of Safety Leaders, which was the most important message for the workforce. Thank you Mark.

Life Beyond Fear.


When a huge swell pops up on the forecast, and it becomes clear that soon I will be surfing waves that could kill me, my mind goes into overdrive. It’s like someone switches on a TV in my head that plays out every way I might die in a week’s time. If I don’t manage that mental stress and anxiety, I turn up on the day of the swell physically exhausted, like my body has been through a thousand wipeouts before I have even put a foot in the water!”
