Show Notes

From Heidi herself:

All I ever wanted to do 'when I grew up' was to be a teacher and luckily for me, I reached that goal.

I spent 9yrs as a physical education and health teacher in the some of the best and worst secondary schools in Sydney, London and Vanuatu. I loved teaching but the money did not support my lifestyle, nor did the massive out-of-hours work support what I considered to be a fair return of my skills and enthusiasm.

So I started a health, fitness and education business outside of my teaching hours from my stinky garage with $200 of second-hand equipment. I grew it, quit my ‘day-job’, hired fabulous people, won awards, moved to bigger and better premises three times, became president of the industry body and sold it seventeen years later for the price and terms that I had asked for.

It was a dream come true."

Heidi is now an inspirational author, speaker and leadership coach.
