In yachting, communication isn’t a luxury — it’s survival. Long hours, cultural differences, and high-stress environments make voice, body language, and self-awareness critical to safety and wellbeing. Communication coach Alicia Sedgwick shares how confidence grows when voice meets purpose, why suppressed feelings turn toxic, and the tools every crew member needs to speak with clarity, set boundaries, and build trust.

Suicide grief doesn’t whisper—it roars. Author and advocate Elle Fisher has faced it again and again: losing her mother at 16, her best friend Jess, her cousin Dakota, and her fiancé Christian.

Her journey is not one of easy answers, but of resilience, survival, and the courage to speak the unspeakable.

His insights reveal how modern leadership can reduce turnover, strengthen crew culture, and bring genuine enjoyment back to the bridge.

The interior crew are the face of any yacht — yet often the least supported when it comes to training and career progression. Industry leader Gemma Hulbert is changing that, championing equal opportunities, professional confidence, and wellbeing for stewardesses worldwide. From mastering technical skills to setting boundaries and building leadership, her approach empowers women in yachting to thrive at sea and beyond.

September brings two of yachting’s premier events — the Cannes Yachting Festival and the Monaco Yacht Show — blending luxury showcases, industry networking, and philanthropy.
