My Story
I assumed I was going to live a "normal" life. Go to university. Get a corporate job. Start a family.
And that’s exactly what I did.But at 37, I realised I was miserable. On paper, I was “SUCCESSFUL" but in the inside, I felt worthless.Then one day, I made a decision - to Stop Blaming and Take Full Control of My Life.Since then, I’ve never felt so ALIVE.Now, I dedicate my life to helping those who feel stuck. Just like I did several years ago.
