Marysol James: Speaker, Author, Advocate

Marysol James is a bestselling author and global speaker who helps organisations protect their most valuable asset: high-performing female leaders. She partners with leadership teams, HR directors, and people-first companies to expose the hidden costs of narcissistic abuse on performance, retention, and workplace culture.


With an MA in International Business, 32 bestselling novels, and a career that’s spanned continents, Marysol blends lived experience with business insight. After surviving six years in a covertly abusive relationship that dismantled her identity and income, she rebuilt stronger – and now equips organisations to ensure their talent can do the same.


Her mission is simple: to stop silent sabotage before it erodes productivity, loyalty, and leadership continuity – and to create healthier workplaces where women, and businesses, thrive.

Talks & Workshops

Despite the prevalence of domestic abuse, less than 5% of UK employers have a dedicated policy in place.
 
Marysol’s talks and workshops show how this hidden crisis damages both your bottom line and your best people.

These sessions spark awareness and provide actionable tools, so your organisation can step out of the 95% and lead with protection and purpose.
 

Workplace Audit & Support Packages

Replacing a single senior leader can cost a company up to 200% of their annual salary in recruitment, training, and lost productivity.
 
Marysol’s Domestic Abuse Impact Audit reveals how hidden abuse risks can trigger these costly departures by examining a company’s policies, reporting pathways, and workplace culture. 

From there, support packages turn findings into action.

1:1 Confidential Support for Top Female Talent

In the UK, research shows that over 20% of employed survivors take time off work because of abuse, and around 4% ultimately lose their jobs as a direct result.


Marysol provides confidential, one-to-one guidance for executives and high-potential women navigating domestic abuse, offering a safe space to plan next steps while staying engaged and protected at work.
