Fear Not!
You know, back in the day when I was a publican and restaurateur (that’s a licensee of a hotel for you foreign folks) I was absolutely terrified to speak in public! I would tremble in my apron if ever I had to make a speech, present a trophy or accept a prize.
My how things change!
If it weren’t for teaching organic food in the cooking school – and undergoing intensive training I would have never plucked up the courage, got over myself and moved forward into the wonderful world of public speaking and keynote address.

Checkout his kind words below and also see what the beautiful Sherry Strong co-founder of the World Wellness Project has to say in the VDO on the bottom left hand side of your screen – you may need to scroll down a little. Lisa Turnball, a naturopath from the Central Coast of NSW was also there. Here’s what she had to say:
