National Young Leaders Day

Last week we attended the National Young Leaders Day (NYLD) in Wellington. We got to listen to a number of different speakers about their journey in their field of expertise and how they overcame challenges and faced their fears. It was a really cool day! Thank you to Jasmine Direen for joining us on the day.

Some advice from the speakers that resonated with us:

Emily: Graci Kim (Author)- Failure is not a stop sign.

Lucie: Riley Elliot (Marine Biologist, Shark Man) – Face your fears.

Ardie: William Pike (Amputee, Motivational speaker)- Never give up and keep going.

Ami: Lola Fisher (Co-Founder Create Happy Media)- You can create change.

Mrs Chambers: Stephen Gallagher (Emmy nominated Film & TV composer)- Don’t be afraid to ask for advice and make new connections.
