Things to really know about me and my beliefs!

  • Started karate because I was bullied at school. Never thought I would ever be a 3rd black belt karate, three-time World champion and two-time European champion….
  • Strongly believe in the power of a solid morning routine
  • Don’t try to fix your weaknesses, focus on your strengths
  • Motivation is what gets you started, habit is what keeps you going
  • Your life is not controlled by what you do some of the time, but by what you do consistently
  • Work-life balance does not exist
