Your ability to comfortably relay stories about your life, messages you were able to impart and the mix of humour and sincerity in your delivery was fantastic. You are a true professional and a very engaging presenter. Definitely one of the best we have seen. Link Property Services
Your funny style with influence of the hard truth kept people entertained and yet allowed some very strong messages to be passed on … I have to say that your ability to connect with stories sets you apart from other motivational and sports speakers. Many sports people can hold a crowd for after dinner talks but do not have the ability to communicate and get a message across. You are different. The trials and tribulations of your goal setting story mixed with the actual process of your life is what I feel is your greatest asset. The communication of how you became successful in sport and the rest of your life pays tribute to the fact that you practice what you preach. Super Fast Profits Mastermind
