Motivational Speaker, Adventurer, Author, Business Advisor

Only a few short years ago, before embarking upon her epic rite of passage to become the renowned world traveller, adventurer, and inspirational communicator she is today, she was the epitome of ?ordinary? ? an unexceptional, middle-aged, single parent.

As an alarmingly novice sailor she join a Round the World Yacht Race in 2000. Her triumphant achievement was followed soon after by numerous other adventures including trekking the notorious West Coast Trail where a combination of bears, cougars and injury made the demanding trek even more treacherous.

She tackled the challenge of the Arctic, dog-sledding across the frozen wilderness in temperatures as low as -30?C. A mere three weeks later she went on to win the inaugural Round Britain Challenge on the same boat in which she sailed round the world. Hardly pausing for breath, 2004 saw her tackling the journey they said couldn?t be done - dog-sledding 600 kilometres to the northernmost tip of Europe on the Nordkapp Expedition.

Aware of the powerful parallels which can be drawn between human behaviour in the workplace and, at the other extreme, people facing the rigours of an Arctic expedition or a round-the-world yacht race, she launched her business development consultancy to help organisations and individuals introduce and implement effective behavioural change.
