My Story
Connection comes naturally to me. For me, connection is innate, anchored deeply in my childhood experiences.
I have always been one searching for connection, striving to relate to people meaningfully in a world that is judgemental and unforgiving.
In my youth I struggled to find meaningful connection with others.
Being conscious of seeking meaning in relationships is not something young people consider and as a result perhaps I was “the odd one out” in that regard.
After decades, I've discovered that continuously seeking connection and giving my all has evolved into my greatest strength, perhaps my superpower.
How I Can Help
My unique, yet proven methodology involves working with business owners and individuals in the space of Heartfelt Leadership.
Serving as an advisor, I guide to implement this framework to unlock the connection opportunities with people.
By doing so, we pave the way for deeper relationships, which dramatically strengthen enhance(s) business performance and profitability.
I offer a 'boutique' style of ultra-personalised business mentorship, designed to enhance and cement all forms of business relationships (internally and externally) - and to bring these human-connections to their full potential, all by putting people at the forefront.
