Create powerful messages
The right message can change everything. We use cognitive psychology, striking visuals, storytelling and structure to add power and impact to your communications.
Messaging magic
Hi, I’m Selina. At Torchbearing, I help leaders design communication that doesn’t just inform people, it moves them. Whether it’s a workshop, a keynote or a complex strategy launch, I combine behavioural science, storytelling and practical design to create messages that connect and inspire. The result is communication that helps bring people with you and makes progress possible.

“I had the pleasure of hearing a particular speaker on a few occasions and I was intrigued by his ability to hold the room in the palm of his hand. It appeared to me that he had some kind of formula as he was able to get a number of really important messages across to the audience in a subtle manner, using humour, emotion and a real sense of authenticity. I later learned that he had a secret weapon and her name is Selina Stephen.”
