Your chance to fly high
By Business Chicks | Jul 24, 12 02:41 PMOur next Canberra breakfast guest says you can fly high too!
Heather Swan's journey from corporate couch potato to jumping from the world's highest cliff began at a corporate breakfast 15 years ago. And she almost skipped it.
Don't skip our next Canberra breakfast with Heather; it may be just as life changing.
Check out Heather in the video to the right.
Heather believes that for anyone to reach their full potential they need to face their fears head on and take some risks. That doesn't mean jumping from the world’s highest cliff for everyone; it could be as simple as picking up the phone and making that difficult phone call or having the courage to ask that nagging question.
For most of us, there’s something that’s holding us back and it’s not until we face it that we can become as great as we can be. Come and learn how to get into that mindset at our next Canberra breakfast.
