Courtney Ugle's life and career are testaments to her resilience, leadership, and advocacy. She's a favourite by many schools, councils and corporate businesses across Australia who engage her frequently to deliver presentations, keynote speeches, interactive workshops and inspirational talks - from a fascinating and captivating view.

As a proud Noongar woman from Bunbury, Western Australia, from a young child, Courtney Ugle has faced immense challenges. Despite these hardships, she found solace and strength in football, which has become a transformative force in her life. Excelling on the field and making meaningful contributions off it, Courtney's achievements in sports are just one facet of her impact.

Beyond the athletic field, Courtney is deeply committed to raising awareness about domestic violence. Drawing from her own experiences, she created Waangkiny, meaning “talking” in her language, a social enterprise where her mission is to empower individuals and communities to transforms adversity into influence through the power of storytelling.

Courtney advocates for change and has emerged as a spokesperson on issues of gender–based & family and domestic violence, resilience, and breaking cycles. She travels across the country delivering speeches and doing keynote presentations which have a powerful impact and are helping to inspire others to find their voice and overcome adversity.

In addition to her speaking engagements, Courtney works part-time for Djirra, an Aboriginal Family Violence Prevention Service, where she coordinates and delivers the Young Luv workshop. This initiative focuses on promoting healthy and safe relationships among Aboriginal young girls and women, underscoring the importance of support networks, the power of community, and the transformative role sports can play in fostering positive life changes.

It's easy to see when you meet and hear from Courtney that her engagements will ignite a fire in people's bellies and inspire them to dream. She seeks to spark powerful conversations with open hearts and open minds.

Endorsements

Courtney Ugle was fantastic, she spoke well. She delivered her presentation with great enthusiasm and our students were transfixed on every word. She also closed her talk with a very positive message for our students and tied her talk to our theme for the day. I would gladly have Courtney back.

Without exception, Courtney was extraordinary and highly generous on the night of our show - both with the audience in the comments they gave while on stage, and with audience members after the show (eg. having conversations and posing for photos). We were delighted with Courtney, with her openness in conversation, and her ability to inspire. Ours was an International Women's Day event and we really did need women who could inspire, so we were not disappointed.
