Cathy Ngo is a social entrepreneur, keynote speaker, and writer based in Sydney. She’s known for pushing the boundaries and agenda for diversity, equity, and inclusion. Cathy’s continued advocacy work and thought leadership are featured across the media.

Cathy has two boys. With her firstborn, she struggled with deep perinatal depression and anxiety, which lasted for almost three years. She didn’t find many resources on the intersection of cultural heritage and PND at the time. The demands of meeting both her Asian roots and navigating parenthood were overwhelming. Determined to help other culturally diverse families, Cathy is passionate about supporting programs that break down the stigma and barriers in reaching out for help and support.

Outside of work, Cathy enjoys reading, painting abstract art, and spoiling her two dogs.
