An Audience with: Penny Mallory
Join us for an intimate evening of life stories, Q&A and grazing boards!

Long before she became a celebrated rally champion, award-winning broadcaster, international keynote speaker, and expert in Mental Toughness, Penny’s world looked very different.
At just 14, she ran away from home and found herself living in London’s derelict squats, surrounded by danger, chaos, and addictions that claimed the lives of many around her. With no money, no qualifications, and no stability, Penny’s future seemed predetermined. But even in the darkest moments, she carried an unshakeable belief that life could be different—that she could be different.
That belief became the spark that transformed everything.
Fuelled by a mixture of grit, courage, and a refusal to be defined by circumstance, Penny rebuilt her life piece by piece. She trained, worked, learned, and fought her way from homelessness to the driver’s seat of a rally car—a place few women had ever sat. In an arena dominated almost entirely by men, Penny rose to become the first and only woman to compete in a World Rally Car, achieving what even seasoned professionals considered impossible.
Her success on the rally stage became the foundation of a new mission: helping others harness the resilience, focus, and mental toughness that had saved her life.
Today, Penny Mallory is one of the UK’s most respected performance and mindset specialists. She has presented on live TV, authored bestselling books, and delivered powerful keynote speeches for global brands including Google, Coca-Cola, Mercedes-Benz, and the Ministry of Defence. Her work is trusted by elite athletes, corporate leaders, frontline services, and high-performance teams worldwide.
Then came TV presenting, extreme sports, running multiple marathons, climbing the world's highest mountains and fighting in the boxing ring twice. She is now training, with her team, to row 3000 miles across the Atlantic Ocean, in a small boat in December 2026.
