Introducing Dee
Dee Hunter is a well-being strategist, speaker, author and facilitator who brings science and the human experience together to create meaningful change.
Over 20 years, Dee has researched what helps people live with vitality and work with purpose, including in-person research visiting the world’s Blue Zones and spending time learning from Indigenous communities. She combines this with her own lived experience and wisdom, having overcome burnout, deep personal loss and complex lifestyle challenges.
Dee believes sustainable behavioural change requires more than simply altering our actions. It demands that we examine how we see ourselves, understand our self-beliefs and reframe the stories we’ve been handed about who we are. This profound philosophy forms the foundation of her signature work in Deep Identity Shift.
Dee has created a suite of original programmes, including Stress Mastery, Generational Intelligence (diversity), The Invitation (the whole person in menopause) and Enough (imposter syndrome).
She works strategically with leaders, people teams and event organisers on the issues most affecting people today. Each programme is carefully crafted as a keynote or facilitated workshop, delivered in person or virtually.
Dee has a unique ability to distil complex research, insight, human experience and the stories we carry into ideas that are relatable, meaningful and actionable. Her audiences leave seeing things differently, with practical strategies to change their lives and impact the choices of people around them.
Signature Keynotes & Workshops
Building capacity to understand, regulate and respond to modern day stress, so people can innovate through disruption and perform at a pace of change that is now the permanent baseline.
Generational Intelligence
Up to five generations now share the same workplace, each shaped by their unique zeitgeist. This requires leaders and teams to develop the insight, language and practical tools to understand these differences, challenge their assumptions and turn generational diversity into a competitive advantage.
Menopause is a life-quake, forcing us to see ourselves differently. It is so much more than a prompt for temporary symptom relief. (HRT) This disruption is an invitation to profound growth, well-being, and reinvention. It isn't the end of life; it is the start of a whole new one as we step into our second half. Males welcome!
Half of all adults have experienced imposter syndrome, and it shows up hardest at the moments that matter: promotions, reviews, presentations, recognition. 'Enough' uncovers the self-limiting beliefs that hold capable people back, and gives audiences one question that changes the story they tell themselves at work: where’s the evidence?
Live Longer Younger
You’re working hard to build a secure future, but after all that hard work, how will you get to enjoy it? After researching the world’s Blue Zones, Dee travelled as a sceptic to conduct in-person research with communities known for living long, healthy lives. Drawing on her first-hand research, their wisdom, and the science of longevity, she reveals the default lifestyle practices behind their remarkable lives and how we can bring those principles into our own daily lives.
Transform your relationship with food and fall back in love with the joy of eating.
Food noise is the relentless stream of thoughts that willpower can't break. GLP-1 medications have offered a way to quiet that noise but the thoughts invariably return because the noise isn't actually about the food. It is rooted in the self-limiting beliefs you’ve carried for years. To truly silence the noise, you have to do the deeper work and understand what those self-limiting beliefs actually are.
How each programme is delivered
Every programme has been carefully crafted to be delivered as a 55-minute keynote or a 3.5-hour facilitated workshop, inperson or virtually, giving you the choice of inspiring a full conference room or taking your people deeper into the tools.

Inspires and energises a full conference room, ideal for opening or closing an event.
Workshop 3.5 Hours

Integration Coaching
Follow-up sessions that help the learning stick.
What clients say
I’ve never seen a speaker hold an audience so captivated for over an hour, leaving us wanting more. Dee’s storytelling and insights have depth and she truly knows her stuff. I hope Dee offers this as a half-day workshop, as members are eager for more!
Cathy Horton, Events Manager, The Northern Club, New Zealand
Dee delivered a hybrid presentation to our 250 staff nationwide, addressing real stressors they face. She gave us clear insights into stress and management techniques, handled numerous questions, and provided an excellent summary with resources afterward.
Nastasia Belz, Events Co-ordinator, Tompkins Wake Legal
Dee opened our two-day conference in Auckland, and we then asked her to close the same conference in Sydney. The reviews speak for themselves: a total score of 4.8/5, and she set the tone for the whole conference. “Engaging and informative, wonderful speaker.” “Humble and generous, what a great journey we went on.”
