ATTN: Doctors in Training, Australia

I have some thrilling news to share, am about to launch a significant research study, and I want you to be part of this transformative journey.

Here’s what makes this opportunity special.
You’ll participate in a scientifically proven, fast - track mindset improvement program. It's online and self-paced, featuring colourful bite-sized multi-media content, organised within an online virtual world environment spanning 7 chapters to create an engaging learning experience.

Participants have previously reported improvements across all areas of well-being, as well as better focus, productivity and resilience in across all areas of their lives.

At no cost, I’m inviting 10 interested and committed doctors to participate in this dedicated research study measuring the impact and outcomes of this one of a kind program.

Send me a message with your email address, and I will send through the application process.

Look forward to seeing you on the other side....

I stand with Whitney Houston “I believe the children are our future… “

Not that these were children I had the privilege of engaging with, they were outstanding brilliant medical students, eager to take on the challenges ahead.

Thank you for having me, enjoyed sharing my stories. Some funny, some sad, some heartbreaking. All real, too real.

May you find the greatest love of all….

Such an important reminder, to focus on the ‘in between moments,’ make them matter, make them count. They will have to carry us through the hard and dark times. Perhaps a universal truth, not just relevant for Medicine, also for Life….
