As a kid growing up, I probably would have been picked as the least likely to become an entrepreneur, never had a lemonade stall, never had a paper run.  But I had a very logical and analytical brain and I could see, even at a young age, that the old “40 Year Plan” we were being sold in school just didn’t add up.  

​

So, by the time I left school, with the help of my parents, I started my very first business at age 18.  I worked my ass off and soon learned that to become successful in business, it takes more than just hard work.  I knew to be successful, I had to be good at sales.  And at that stage, I was most certainly NOT!

​

So I deliberately decided to become a master salesman.  I jumped into door to door selling.  I sold vacuum cleaners, security systems, automotive products, educational products and insurance.  If you could sell it door to door, chances are I’ve probably sold it.  And in time, I became one of the top sales people, (I even managed to sell a guy a set of encyclopedias in spite of never having worked for an encyclopedia company!).

​

Having reached the pinnacle of the sales industry, I decided it was time to go out on my own and in 2005 I started a boutique sales and marketing company.  Over the next few years, I forged the business into one of the top performing companies of its kind.

​

Never one to rest on my laurels, my next challenge was acting as a Change Agent, showing companies how to improve and invigorate their sales processes.  Then in 2009, I took on my most audacious challenge yet, working with a new start-up venture.  Starting from zero, with a 2-man operation working out of a tiny study in the owner’s house, over the next 3 years I helped grow the business into a thriving success, personally achieving sales revenue in excess of $1 million annually.

​

Following my start-up arena success, I was head-hunted into the corporate world, where over the next few years I worked for several leading multi-nationals, eventually becoming a corporate trainer, teaching others to do what I had done.

​

Throughout this time, I had been constantly immersing myself into the world of personal development.  I believe that what I learned, formed the corner stone of my own success.  As I transformed my own life, I saw opportunities to help others transform their own lives and soon I was the go-to guy for personal development amongst all my circle of friends.  

Following a growing sense of disillusionment with what I saw as a toxic culture within many top corporations, a chance encounter set me on a path to fulfill what many people had been asking me to do for years and that was to leave the corporate world and become a Life Coach.

​

Having worked as a Life Coach for several years, I have now transitioned my focus to being a DoTerra Wellness Advocate.  Today I live the life of my dreams.  No longer bound by the old corporate 9-5, my time is my own, I no longer wake up to an alarm clock, I have a 3-day work week, and spend my time helping people live their best lives.

​

I have time that I can spend with family (a blessing I can’t put a price on, with everything that has been going on in our world), I read, I learn new things, I cook (badly, but I try), I get to wholeheartedly pursue my passions (amateur photography being the latest), and every day I get to think how lucky I am to be living this life.  

​

So why do I tell you all this?  

 

Well, I don’t tell you this to impress you, but rather to impress upon you that I am someone who has been there, done that and with all that I have learned along the way, I can help you to succeed too.  Regardless of whether you have been recruited into this business by myself, or by anyone on my team, it makes no difference because the teaching and all of the resources that you will find on this site is the same for everyone.  

​

I want to tell people that the life that I live, is something they can have too.  I invite you to join me on a journey to becoming the very best you that you can be, where you live on your terms, where all the dreams you dared not dream because you thought they could never come true, can really come true.  I know it’s possible, because I’ve done it, and I look forward to hearing your story and hearing how you did it too!
