Kurt Foessel is a man of faith and action. It was a privilege to sit with Kurt Foz and talk about how he has dealt with many challenges both personal and work wise and how he utilises various strategies to maintain wellness.

Pere is a man who serves his community with heart and soul. Part of that means at times the work can take its toll but Pere proves that even a diagnosis of PTSD does not stop your dreams and your goals and you can in fact continue to live a full and meaningful life.

Joshua Phillips could have been just another statistic having been misunderstood in school and facing a life of hard labour. However it was something his foreman said to him while labouring at the Mt Smart Stadium as a teenager that turned his life around. He then embarked on a journey towards education and this decision to do so has made Joshua a agent of change in the lives of many communities and workplaces he has led. His insights into what leadership means are also inspiring. Thank you Joshua for coming on the show and giving of yourself and what a awesome journey it has been. I look forward to the next chapter and what you will bring next to enrich everyone that you will impact.
