As a speaker, I bring nonlinear thinking to stages around the world — from NASA to local companies looking for something real. I challenge audiences to see differently, think beyond systems, and create movement from within. If you're in the Netherlands and want to book me for an event, please do so via despreker.nl. For other countries please contact me directly.
I was never meant to live inside lines or boxes.
My life has always unfolded at the edges where curiosity meets uncertainty, where challenge becomes play, and where connection grows without labels.
I move in places where freedom is real.
Where people are celebrated for who they are, not what they are called.
Where conversation flows without script.
Where creativity is born in the moment, surprising even the one who creates it.
I live in the playground of fearless curiosity.
Not because it is easy, but because it is alive.
Here, “impossible” is not a barrier but an open door.
Here, mistakes are not failures but stories, woven into laughter, memory, and connection.
Here, limits are not walls but springboards, carrying us into new possibilities.
I do not create for recognition, nor for permission.
I create because something wants to exist.
Because visions deserve form, because ideas deserve air, because play deserves its place in the world.
At the center of it all, there is a constancy.
I remain the same, whether in celebration or in struggle, in fullness or in emptiness.
And in that constancy, I am free, free to erase what others have written on me, free to begin again, free to create without end.
Curiosity is the rhythm that keeps me alive.
Fearlessness is the path I walk.
Adaptability is the art I practice.
I see greatness in every human life, even when it hides in silence.
I listen for the brilliance overlooked by others.
I hold space where people can rest as themselves, unmasked, unmeasured, unafraid.
I connect what does not seem to belong together, people, ideas, fragments of possibility, until they reveal a new pattern, a new constellation, a new movement.
I do not build monuments. I grow mycelium.
Living, breathing networks of connection where possibility can take root and spread.
This is not a career, not a title, not a role.
It is simply the way I am.
I am Perry Knoppert.
I live nonlinear.
I turn curiosity into connection, connection into possibility, and possibility into movement.
And I invite you to join me in this space
where fear becomes adventure,
where freedom becomes creation,
and where, between thoughts,
the beauty of life reveals itself.
