Skye McCann: Our Youngest Speaker Proving That Strength Has No Age

We Continue to Showcase Our Guest Speakers...

The Yorkshire Ladies Links Hellomynameis Charity Lunch and Business Showcase was an event filled with inspiration, connection and heartfelt stories that stayed with everyone who attended.

Among our wonderful speakers was Skye McCann, whose confidence, warmth and determination captured the room from the moment she began speaking.

At just 18 years old, Skye made a decision that would completely change the direction of her life. After receiving her A-level results, she realised that the path she was about to take didn’t feel right. While many of her friends were preparing for university, Skye listened to her instincts and decided to take a different route.

Instead of heading off to campus, she walked into the gym where she had been training for the past two years and asked if there were any opportunities for personal trainers. That simple, brave question became the start of something special.

Since then, Skye is now building a career doing what she loves most, helping people feel stronger, happier and more confident in themselves. She qualified as a personal trainer and is working in the very same gym that started her fitness journey, and hasn’t looked back since.

Through her one-to-one sessions, at-home visits and online coaching, Skye works with women of all ages and abilities. Her passion is helping them discover just how powerful they can be, not only in the gym but in their everyday lives. For Skye, fitness isn’t just about lifting weights or ticking off goals. It’s about building belief, self-worth and a sense of confidence that lasts far beyond a training session.

Her story is a reminder that sometimes the best decisions are the ones that come from trusting your gut, even when it feels a little scary. Skye chose the road less travelled, and in doing so, created a life and career that truly makes her happy.

Despite being our youngest speaker, Skye has already made a lasting impact. She has now spoken at two of our events, each time leaving the audience feeling inspired, uplifted and full of admiration for her courage and drive.

Her words remind us that it doesn’t matter how young you are or how uncertain things might feel; what matters is believing in yourself enough to take that first step.

We are so proud to have welcomed Skye as a speaker, and we know this is only the beginning for her. Her story continues to inspire others to be brave, to follow their instincts and to create the life they truly want.
