Отрывок из книги
The creation of this book has required the support of many people. I would first like to thank my husband Neil for encouraging me to follow my passion of helping people learn and grow to their fullest potential. Without his support I would not have been able to complete the journey of writing a book and creating a successful coaching and training business.
I would also like to thank my kids for their love, support and for allowing me to tell silly little stories about them in my book. Thank you, Amy, for all the extra time you dedicated to the success of this book. And finally, I would like to acknowledge the support of my parents and friends that provided their encouragement through this journey.
