Achieving through Adversity

I’ve been at rock bottom. With just a handful of GCSEs from school, I struggled with alcohol and drugs, anxiety, depression, and loneliness. Yet, I have travelled the world, scuba dived on The Great Barrier Reef, earned a BSc (1st Class), MA (Distinction), and a PhD (Cambridge University), completely given up alcohol, adopted a plant-based diet, trained as a specialist pranayama (breathwork) instructor, and now happily wake each morning at 4:30AM to do 1hr physical yoga before getting on with the rest of my day.

But how did this happen? Why didn’t I just stay where I was? And what tools did I use to make these transformations take place? What I’ve realised is that it is absolutely possible, not just to escape rock bottom, but to excel and far surpass what you thought was your full potential – and the thing is your full potential is often much much greater than you realise.

Using my own real-life examples, my talks and workshops show you how transformations like mine take place. You gain from real-life lessons that offer practical strategies for effective decision making and empowerment so you can lead confidently in any situation, and inspire others to achieve great things no matter what the circumstances.
