Inspiration. Action. Transformation.
Fiona Demark empowers individuals and organisations to rise above challenges and unlock their true potential.
Welcome to the world of Ability Thinking
Ability Thinking is a mindset that focuses on strengths, adaptability, and human resilience — highlighting what people can do, rather than what they can’t.
Using Ability Thinking to Shift Mindset
As someone who has faced life’s toughest challenges – including blindness – I know what it takes to adapt, thrive and create lasting impact.
But this isn’t about me.
It’s about you – your team, your students, your audience and what’s possible when we stop focusing on limitations and start seeing opportunity.
I bring a practical, uplifiting approach to keynote speaking, training workshops and coaching, helping people shift their mindset, build resilience and take action with clarity and confidence.
Whether you are leading a team through change, working toward personal growth, or seeking inspiration for your community, you’re in the right place.
Let’s explore what’s possible together.

A word from my clients...
Fiona was an engaging MC who was well prepared and tailored to the audience. She brilliantly weaved personal reflection into the event which built on the words of the other speakers.
