She addresses the everyday challenges teenagers endure, using relatable examples, research and clinical experience to drive her message home. Her talks are thought-provoking, heart-felt and amusing, helping her audience connect with the complexities of navigating a cyber playground for our teenagers and feel inspired to make lasting changes in their lives.
Dr Diana’s content varies depending on the audience. She presents to parents, teachers and youth leaders as well as to students of all cohorts. The Truth Workshops range from 1-2 hour sessions based on topics such as: cyber bullying, the dangers of digital devices and social media, and her effective digital detox programs. Flexibility with topic choices is available especially with promoting resilience and physical, emotional and spiritual well-being. Dr Diana aims to challenge her audience’s point of view and lived experience, helping them re-evaluate what is meaningful.
Her book, The Truth about High School, is often an accompanying resource for students, and has been referred to as “life changing” and “inspirational”, not just for teenagers, but for the parents and teachers helping them navigate their adolescent years.

Testimonials
I can’t explain what your book did to me. I found myself crying without really knowing why. It’s like you were reading my thoughts, like you wrote it for me. Thank you.
female, Aged 16This is the book I didn’t even realise I needed to read. I got it for my teenage daughters and read it first. This was just the inspiration I needed to put back in place the things that have been lost and broken in our home for a long time.
Mother, aged 46One of the chapters in Dr Diana’s book has changed my life. I was being bullied about a really personal issue and that chapter prompted me to reach out directly to her. Her wisdom and experience have changed everything. I’m no longer anxious about this issue and I am ready to face Year 12.
male, aged 17 Thank you Diana for the talk. It was the best one I have ever been to. I was so interested in your journey and the way you understand what we go through as teenagers. You have given me a lot to think about with my phone use and gaming, and also about my faith. I can't wait to hear you talk again.
