Dr. Carlette Norwood is a sociologist, speaker, and creative practitioner whose work focuses on identity, power, and healing after toxic and narcissistic relationships. She holds a PhD in Sociology from the University of Birmingham and has over a decade of experience speaking to academic, professional, and public audiences across the UK. Drawing on research, lived experience, and storytelling, her work explores how women lose and reclaim themselves in relationships that slowly erode voice, confidence, and self-trust, particularly in midlife and beyond. Her background spans academia, coaching, theatre, and public-facing creative work, giving her a rare ability to translate complex emotional experiences into language that feels both validating and empowering. Dr. Norwood is known for holding thoughtful, emotionally intelligent spaces that support women 45+ in reclaiming identity, boundaries, and purpose, not by hardening, but by healing.
