Alisha Marfatia is a globally recognised video expert and coach, speaker, and creative who has spent over a decade at the forefront of content, visibility, and video marketing.
She built her name teaching Reels before anyone else was, became the go-to authority in that space, and grew multiple seven-figure businesses from a personal brand alone. Alisha was found by Instagram through her content, went on to work with her, and featured her as their first Reels Pro. Alisha was also discovered by major national media house, Nova, and hired her to host their up and coming podcast.
With a background in film and television, she brings a filmmaker's understanding of story, pacing, and impact to every stage she steps onto. Her sessions blend cinematic storytelling, marketing psychology, and strategy that has been tested across thousands of businesses, globally.
A significant part of that journey was built while navigating depression and anxiety, and she brings that honesty to the stage too, because that is the version of success that actually moves people and a component of what has led to Alisha’s ‘Authentic Authority’ work.
Visibility, Video Psychology, Influence.

KEYNOTES & SESSIONS
- A clear understanding of the one thing separating viral content from content that sells, and how to use both strategically
- Alisha's complete seven-step video recipe, applicable the same week across any platform or business
- The psychology behind why some content stops the scroll and other content doesn't, explained in a way that's immediately usable
YOUR AUDIENCE WALKS AWAY WITH:
Most people are creating content that gets watched and forgotten. This session is about the specific difference between video that drives reach and video that drives revenue, and how to create both. It's hands-on, interactive, and works for every level in the room, from someone who has never posted a reel to someone who posts daily and wonders why it's not converting.
The 7-Step Recipe for Video Content That Actually Converts
- A name for what's been holding them back, and the belief that ditching it is a strategic move, not a risky one
- The specific identity shift that takes someone from credible to magnetic, and how to make it without blowing up what they've already built
- Clarity on what their authentic authority actually sounds like when it stops trying to sound like everyone else
- The mindset shift that makes consistency feel easy instead of exhausting
YOUR AUDIENCE WALKS AWAY WITH:
There's a version of "showing up professionally" that is quietly making your audience invisible. This talk is for the person who has been doing everything right and still feels like something isn't landing. Alisha breaks down the authority trap, what it is, why smart people fall into it, and what it actually takes to build the kind of presence that makes people choose you.
Screw Professionalism: Why Authentic Authority Is Your Brand’s Greatest Superpower
- The five-step sequence: from building inner authority, to mastering storytelling, to creating visibility that lives beyond any single platform
- The difference between being known in your industry and being sought after across it, and what moves someone from one to the other
- A realistic, grounded picture of what global influence actually requires, paired with the belief that it is genuinely within reach
YOUR AUDIENCE WALKS AWAY WITH:
This is not a talk about follower counts or posting frequency. It's the real story of how Alisha went from building a business on Instagram to being found by global platforms, invited onto national media, and sought out by audiences across multiple countries. She walks through the exact sequence, including the internal work most people skip, and makes the case that global influence is less about reach and more about becoming someone with something genuinely worth following.
From Local Expert to Global Influence: The Steps That Actually Get You There
- A practical map of where AI genuinely saves time without costing them their voice or their audience's trust
- The content creation workflow Alisha actually uses to move faster without sounding like everyone else using the same tools
- A clear understanding of why the rise of AI content has made a strong human point of view more valuable, not less
- Confidence that their lived experience and specific perspective is the thing no tool can replicate
YOUR AUDIENCE WALKS AWAY WITH:
Everyone is using AI now, and audiences can feel it. The content that cuts through is the content that still sounds like a real person with a real point of view. This session is about using AI to save hours and work smarter, while protecting the creativity, the voice, and the humanness that no tool can replicate. Because in a world where AI is everywhere, the most powerful thing you have is still you.
