My Gift to You - WHO WOULD HAVE IMAGINED?
We have direct evidence of the positive impact we’ve have as human beings on our planet, because we’ve been forced to. We can’t ignore this and go back to the way things were. We have a responsibility to learn and re-envision a new normal with the power to create what that new normal will be - for ourselves, our communities and this world.

In her book, Steering Through It, the author explains how it feels to find out she had a brain tumour as well as how she healed not just physically, but emotionally and spiritually as well.

Meet our first three exceptional guests!
It’s time to celebrate the truly remarkable people we have surrounding us. “Taking the Helm” is all about just that. In each podcast episode, we’ll get to know people who have taken risks, who’ve thrown themselves out there - to create something they’ve dreamed of.

It’s an honour to get to share these conversations and unique leaders with you. My guess is you will want to listen to each and every episode. There’s so much for us to learn and experience ourselves.
