Passion for Leading Meaningful Change
This life is about adapting, being flexible but adhering to ones value set.
Too often we can be swept along and flounder rather that recognize the ebb and flow of life’s waves.
Anne believes in facing into change, riding the wave and dealing with grief and loss. This open mindedness makes us wiser, more human, and more able to embrace joy and the inevitable new beginnings in our lives.
This skill can be learnt.
