Martha Barnard-Rae's Biography

Martha Barnard-Rae is a copywriter, TEDx and keynote speaker, and neurodivergent business owner. She is the founder of Word Candy and a sore loser of board games. Martha moonlights as a feminist scholar and co-host of The One That Works For You podcast.

Martha is a sought-after presenter on topics like values-based business ownership, neurodiversity, branding and clear communication, bias in the workplace, and growing thought leadership across industries. Audiences love her fun, thoughtful delivery and interactive style.

A former English teacher, Martha is adept at distilling complicated ideas in a clear, concise way. Setting boundaries is her superpower. Her love language is Instagram reels.
