Biography

7 times world surfing champion Layne Beachley dubbed me the “Queen of Resilience.”

David Goggins, arguably the world’s toughest man, called me a “badass.”

Whatever you call me, I am resilient.

Left a quadriplegic and needing a wheelchair after a devastating accident when I was 12, I did not let this tragic accident slow me down.

Instead, I used my life experience and personal philosophies to work with organisations who want their people to be more engaged, mentally resilient and productive so that they can grow through uncertainty and change.

I'm the author of “How to be Resilient” and I've been featured by Financial Review, ABC radio and The Australian, and hired by global organisations such as Viacom, GM Holden and Flight Centre for my insights on resilience in the workplace.

My inspirational programs frequently used for:
=> Sales teams needing the resilience to deal with setbacks and rejections without losing momentum

=> Leaders who are finding their go-to approaches for motivating and equipping their teams are no longer having the same impact in the age of hybrid workplaces

=> Organisations or associations looking for an engaging and exciting kick off to a conference, retreat or staff planning day that has your people inspired and open minded for the sessions to come
