Five Turning Points
All of us have what I call 'turning points' in our lives. These are events that have ultimately shaped who we are today.
This podcast explores leaders and people of influence as to what were five turning points that shaped who they are today.
'Turning points' could be people met along the way, critical events in one's life such as births, marriages, deaths, paths taken that were less travelled.
Come and join me on this great adventure!
