Meet William, a resilient and dynamic public speaker whose journey through life reads like a blockbuster movie script. From 1990 William navigated the worlds of creative agency ownership, specialising in everything from TV commercials to news productions, and captivating audiences as a public speaker in the realms of attitudinal enhancement, motivation, and sales training.
In the pursuit of personal development, William honed his skills under a Brian Tracy International licence, thriving as he delivered courses in the vibrant city of Auckland. But fate had other plans, and a family tragedy in 2009 forced William to hit the reset button, packing up and heading back to his small hometown of Timaru.
Life took a series of unexpected turns, testing William in ways most could never imagine. Battling the heartbreak of losing several family members to cancer, the plot thickened when his wife decided to embark on a unique journey—with William's dying sister's husband. Talk about a plot twist!
Amidst the chaos, William found strength and resilience in the face of adversity. Embracing the "attitude of gratitude," he turned his tale of tragedy into a story of triumph. With humour and a touch of cleverness, William is a living testament to the transformative power of embracing life's challenges.
After stepping into a General Management position, William's health took an unexpected hit, leading to frequent encounters with wheelchairs and crutches. But here's where the narrative takes an inspiring turn—William shed a remarkable 70 kilograms, defying the odds and emerging from the ordeal feeling younger at 50 than he did in his early 30s.
Now, William is not just a speaker; he is a beacon of hope for those facing chronic diseases. Drawing upon personal experiences, William helps clients restructure their thinking, proving that even in the darkest moments, a story of resilience, reinvention, and gratitude can emerge.
In the grand tale of William's life, each twist and turn has become a building block for a brighter future.
