Resilience Speaker

While Mental Health focuses on the importance of getting your mental state out of negative space, Grit focuses on how to then propel your mental state into a more enriching space for a more fulfilling and productive life.

This presentation highlights ways on how to build mental fortitude and the ability to cast a vision of the future that you can't help but move towards. Jonny shares his personal experience of living in a caravan while failing his studies due to his learning disabilities, to passing and going on to start a billion-dollar company through a method his school counsellor imparted into him all those years ago; The PERMA Model.

“We move towards what we focus on”. Having a clear vision is the starting point for great and positive changes in anyone's life. This presentation encourages the listeners to have goals in every area of life and move towards them with passion and perseverance.
