I recently engaged Barbara to run a session on wellness to a group of high performing professionals and she was FANTASTIC!
Barbara’s ability to tackle the sometimes hard, confronting stuff around wellbeing with such positive & infectious energy is one of her many superpowers.
She puts the room at ease with her down-to-earth nature and genuine passion for what she does.
Barbara’s knowledge and actionable little gold nuggets around keeping well went down a treat.
The professional world needs more of you!!!
Thank you Barbara!

I really liked the way Barbara brought the subject to life in a relatable and fun way. She was able to capture the attention of the whole group with her authentic and animated style. This was the most dynamic version of a Team-building workshop I’ve done (and I’ve been around the track a bit!). The team were left buzzing and wanting more, which was exactly what I was hoping for”

We have been working with Barbara for the past eight years where they played an instrumental part in our high potential program. During this time, Barbara has been successful in developing over 80 of our associates to greater their skills and knowledge as future leaders. She has invested a lot of time in understanding our culture to help develop our associates and it has been demonstrated by the continuous positive feedback from those participated in their workshops.
The concept of turning “corporates into athletes” resonates with our associates and it is a concept that I think many other businesses can embrace and utilise. I would highly recommend both Barbara and the program that they deliver.
