In my consulting role I did Team Development, Leadership Development, a tonne of personality work, and Executive Coaching. I found that when working with people talking about their professional development and their personalities, you couldn't help but move into life coaching if you were really talking about personal fulfillment. We aren't robots and our lives and our jobs aren't separate thi

Here to Thrive: Tips for a Happier Life is a podcast to helping you do just that. I’m a New Zealander living in the USA. I moved here in 2013 and currently call Houston, TX home.
