Lorraine Le is an international speaker, chef, author, and mental health advocate whose work sits at the intersection of identity, culture, luxury, and emotional transformation. With a cross-industry background spanning luxury hospitality, private aviation, brand strategy, wellness innovation, and now her role as Vice President of Luxury Brands & International Markets at Gurner Group, Lorraine brings a rare perspective to the stage that blends business, psychology, and human storytelling.
She is the founder of Inward, a mental health and trauma-awareness initiative supporting those impacted by domestic violence, emotional distress, and trauma. Her lived experience and advocacy inform her signature philosophy, Break It Till You Make It — the belief that our deepest challenges can become the foundation of authentic leadership, creativity, and purpose-driven success.
Lorraine is known for using culinary storytelling as a metaphor for identity, memory, and emotional healing. Her talks weave together luxury brand insight, trauma-informed understanding, and deeply human narratives, offering audiences an experience that is both intellectually compelling and emotionally resonant. She speaks globally for luxury brands, corporates, universities, women’s leadership summits, and mental health organisations.
