Last week I had the privilege of being a guest speaker at Melbourne High's school assembly. I spoke about resilience and not giving up and the things I do to stay balanced. I was pleased to engage and interact with the students. Education is such an important part of life and I was honoured to be able to share my experience and knowledge.

Last month I spoke at South Oakleigh Secondary College to 100 year 8 and 10 students. I talked of my struggles/challenges with not fitting in, growing up as a first generation Greek Australian, having low self esteem, low self confidence, no self worth, and how therapy and Martial Arts helped me overcome many of these struggles.
