An ex-English Language Teacher Turned Entrepreneur is Preparing to take to the Stage

Last Updated: October 22, 2025By Tags: ,

An ex-English Language Teacher turned entrepreneur is preparing to take to the stage in front of 850 people this month, as part of their mission to share their inspiring story of how they have shifted from teaching language to reimaging education itself. Over the past few years Sue has pioneered a new approach to personal development through the creation of her unique, and revolutionary, Playbooks. Having created more than 300 books for clients around the world Sue now uses them as the foundation for her vision to redefine the education system.

Sue Jones-Miranda, 46, who lives in Northleach, is excited to announce that they will be sharing advice on the importance of remembering we are energetic beings and how our choices today shape the next seven generations, as they are given a stage, an audience of over 850 people and a challenge to ‘start conversations that matter’, on 30th and 31st October at the UK’s fastest growing inclusive personal and business development event, The Big Festoon.

Sue will be taking their place on The Big Festoon stage following in the footsteps of globally renowned entrepreneur Daniel Priestley, pop sensation Natasha Hamilton, and music sensation and brand founder Lisa Maffia.

Having spent the last 6 months training for this moment Sue will join global motivational speaker, international speaker coach, bestselling author and award winning business leader Dani Wallace, who is hosting the 2 day event, The Big Festoon, at Bolton Stadium.

Startups to 7 figure founders from across the globe will be coming together from across the globe and Sue is excited to play their part in sharing knowledge, inspiring action and motivating the crowd of entrepreneurs.

On being involved in this event, and being given a prestigious platform through which to share their message Sue, 46, from Northleach said: “we’re standing in a moment of profound change, the next era of our evolution is where authenticity leads and our differences and uniqueness becomes non-negotiable. This isn’t about just evolving in business, it’s about how we’re shifting in consciousness and shaping systems. It’s about making a real difference now – and for the generations to come”.

Dani added: “I am so excited to see Sue take to the stage, and take up some space with their message. What they have to share is so powerful and needs to be heard by more people! Public speaking fear (glossophobia) still sees the majority of people shy away from stepping up on stage so Sue is in a very small minority of people being brave enough to make an impact in this way- we need to get behind them with our support!”

Sue established their business in 2016 with a vision to help people to reconnect to who they truly are. What began as a passion project has turned into a global movement to redefine education itself. Today, she partners with leaders, educators, and organisations to integrate energetic education into their systems and cultures.

Sue added: “imagine educating our children where they are wired for authenticity, it’s our responsibility to build a world that recognises that. This is the turning point from the age of intellect to the age of energy, and my work through the lens of my Playbooks, Human Design & Gene Keys is dedicated to redefining education from the inside out.”

The Big Festoon takes place during half term and this year is also running a Mini Festoon, so children and young people can also come and experience their own event that will offer a fun, creative and empowering programme for children. With storytelling, workshops, and hands-on challenges focused on communication, teamwork, and emotional intelligence this is designed to help young people build confidence and curiosity.

Set within the backdrop of inclusivity the talks within The Big Festoon will explore topics spanning Business Growth, Human Design, Identity, Sales and Wellbeing.

Sue said; “my mission is to awaken a new kind of intelligence, one that’s rooted in energy, not effort. I want people to leave my talk feeling grounded, seen and empowered. I want every person who hears me to take one brave step towards living their truth, this is the foundation of everything and how we will change the next seven generations”.

Dani said: “This isn’t your usual business event – what we explore here are subjects that matter on a very human level – not just on a business level. We talk fears, and limiting beliefs, and about what success really looks and feels like”.

Alongside the speaker’s talks, Dani, a professional singer who’s featured on ITV’s The Voice, regularly uses music to further connect with her audiences and the messages she wishes to share.

This year’s Big Festoon is proudly supported by a line-up of inspirational partners: High Level, ADHD360, Shaa Wasmund MBE, The Bloomfields, MenoAid — The Menopause Subscription Box, and Expert Empires.
Recognised as a ‘safe space’ for minority and underrepresented groups, The Big Festoon is designed with accessibility at its core and Dani likes to think of it as ‘a place people can call home’. The event celebrates people from all backgrounds and lived experiences, united under her core belief that “we are better together” and “we all do well when we all do well.”
