1. What do you love about Max Potential?
It’s all in the name: Max Potential is an opportunity to embrace and engage with the maximum potential we all carry. It’s more than a program, it’s a series of empowering relationships all focussed on achieving success, both in individuals and communities.
2. Favourite quote.
Everyone thinks about changing the world, but no one thinks about changing themselves. (Leo Tolstoy)
3. What do you hope your legacy will be?
To have empowered others to greater beliefs, deeper love and endless possibilities so they can be positive change agents in their life-time and into generations to come. I desire to see my ‘life’s ceiling’ become my children's ‘floor’ from which they can build on to reach greater heights in their life-time than I ever could in mine.
4. Dream holiday destination and why?
The United Kingdom and Europe - my father was born in Manchester England, so I’d love to visit there and explore my family heritage. There’s something about the history, ambience, beauty and royalty of the UK and Europe that I find inviting, intriguing and very exciting.
5. Describe a memorable coaching moment.
I remember coaching a lady, where she had a watershed moment, which provided her the breakthrough she needed to pursue her life dream of becoming a Children’s author. To see her empowered in such a dramatic way to pursue a dream that had previously been locked inside her and was now released to become reality was priceless. |
