Unpolished Stories: Speaking Beyond the Spotlight
Episode 9 - Walk the Talk with Ingrid Lotze & Gavin Moffat
In this episode of Unpolished Stories: Speaking Beyond the Spotlight, co-hosts Dr. Celina Peerman and Chantelle Botha sit down with globetrotting speaker duo Ingrid Lotze and Gavin Moffat—TEDx speakers, scuba divers, communication strategists, and partners in both life and business. From trading in a traditional home for a nomadic lifestyle with just seven T-shirts each, to navigating the dynamics of working (and living) together 24/7, they open up about what it really means to walk your talk.
This heartfelt and humorous conversation dives into the power of communication, the impact of courageous conversations, and the beauty of staying curious. With unfiltered stories—from breakdowns in tech to breakdowns in tears—Gavin and Ingrid share their unpolished moments with grace and authenticity. If you’ve ever wondered what it means to live your message on and off stage, this episode is for you.
