My Story
I didn't make it as a racing driver, so I became a black belt in karate and then a psychologist and professional speaker. Even today, I want to keep pushing myself out of my comfort zone to reach more exciting, expanding horizons. More than anything, I get joy out of teaching others how to expand theirs.
​
My new book Apples for the Mind is the result of years of work helping people to overcome challenges and discover the foundation of their quality of life: wellbeing. The two most misunderstood aspects of wellbeing are psychological skills and the link between wellbeing and performance. In Apples for the Mind, I address these misunderstandings by revealing 20 true things you need to know in order to create emotional balance, peak performance and lifelong wellbeing.
