The word spirit is such a common thread in Canadian language but here in Aussie it’s been hijacked by religious concepts. In the Himalayas, it is everyday language and it means the same to those who love sport and the outdoors. It defines us, not philosophically but in our approach to love and life. My call to action for all my students is, Live with Spirit, and I know what I mean when I say it, even if there are no words to do so.

in this amazing video, Nicola faces her demons, steps up and does the impossible. Although it’s an advert for her shoes, I think it’s a wonderful gift for those of us who live in the world of business, sport and spirituality. Please enjoy, Nicola’s Spirit.
