Dear Reader,
Recognise anyone in the photo above? They are living, surfing proof that business blossoms on the beach. Our next surfing networking event is coming up on 31st October 2025.
But first ...
1) Big news: introducing I RISE 🌅
For years I’ve watched the same simple, natural arc create really positive and powerful change in people's lives. Whether it’s fearless flying, confident speaking, or calmer living. I've finally bottled the magic. Meet I RISE:
- I – Identity/Initiation: Awareness + responsibility: “I can choose.”
- R – Reflection: Remember wins, strengths, and resources.
- I – Imagination: Rehearse the preferred future, vividly.
- S – Stillness: Calm the body/brain so change lands.
- E – Expansion: Repeat, integrate, and grow through calm, confident action and experience.
It’s light, practical, science-informed, and it works. And best of all - when we rise, others rise too.
👉 Reply “I RISE” to join the early list for the first cohort + resources.
2) Surf & Connect: Networking in the Waves 🏄♂️🤝
