So you are wondering who I am. You probably think, oh another one of those social media butterfly bugs!
Well OK, here it is! I am originally from the UK. I loved horses as a kid and so I decided to make a career of it, although it was very challenging, it was also very interesting. There was a lot of traveling in with this package, sleeping in trucks, tack rooms, barns, one time in California, I had the pleasure of the company of a desert scorpion and maybe a black widow or two,not to mention the snakes. I did it all. I ended up in the polo world and got to mingle with the rich and famous such as, William Devane (from the famous soap Knots Landing,) he happened to approach me one day at a game to ask, “Which is your best playing pony?” I also had a run in with The Prince of Wales, whilst collecting the horse from Mike, who was the player that I worked with, Mike happened to be talking about the porridge (oatmeal) that I would make him before each game, and Charley shouts out “porridge, porridge, what’s this about porridge “ to me in his low posh voice. On another occasion I remember a time that a bunch of us were outside Windsor Castle with a box full of booze trying to crash into a party and, yes, we actually got in, it was a blast. Polo eventually was what got me over to the USA. It was a great time while it lasted. I will tell you more about my polo times in a later blog.
I have always had a passion to help and give back to others. Five years ago, I decided on a career change, so I became a fitness trainer. I not only get people fit physically, but I find that there is a lot of emotion attached too, with them being over weight e.c.t. I treat my clients as if they are my friends and I make each and everyone of them feel special in their own way.
I find my career as a trainer so fulfilling, especially when you have a gentlemen with Parkinson’s disease start to play nine holes of golf again. I am really enjoying the GreatHeart program. This is really teaching me how I think and connect with others. I can’t wait to share this with the world. I feel that if you want to change and succeed in life, you have to make that choice; it is so easy with this program.
You better live your best and act your best and think your best today, for today is the sure preparation for tomorrow and all the other tomorrows that follow.
