Achieving audacious goals is not reserved for a special few. With the right mindset, it’s available to everyone
What if we dared not just to dream but to do?
What if we could overcome invisible barriers that might be limiting us?
Adventurer, best-selling author, and travel writer Laura Waters inspires people from all walks of life, sharing lessons learned from hiking 3,000km down the length of New Zealand, kayaking 2,400km down the Murray River, and the string of unlikely achievements in between.
From middle-aged, unfulfilled and bored to go-getting adventurer, travel writer and award-winning author, Laura’s journey is a powerful example of what can happen if you can garner the courage to simply take that first step and just ‘keep walking’. It’s a lesson that applies both in both business and life.
Courage + Action + Persistence = Goals realised
Bravery is a muscle that needs a regular workout but once you’re a regular at the ‘courage gym’, fear goes away and excitement and motivation take its place. Laura shows that the ability to realise audacious goals is not reserved for a special few with superhuman skills but anyone willing to open their vision and have a go.
Laura shares what she’s learned about facing fear and challenge, assessing risk, tapping in to gut feelings, decision-making and staying calm. She shows how to ride the waves of discomfort, how to embrace the tough times that build resilience, and how not to freak out when things don’t go to plan (mistakes are a learning opportunity!)
After hearing her story, your audience will be excited for what they too might achieve, and know that sometimes all that stands between us and our goals is simply the courage to try.
It’s time to be brave, take the reins and thrive.
