Keynote: Overcoming Adversity
Catherine has faced many levels of adversity – always with a positive attitude that has almost always led to success!  In this presentation, she’ll tell stories from her life to explain that tough times can show you that you’re made of strong stuff as you learn and grow as a person. 

Case in point – Catherine’s plans as a wife and mother, plus her career as a nurse, were shattered by a diagnosis of terminal brain cancer. That was more than ten years ago. In those years, she has learned that what others label as adversity can actually be positive surprises loaded with love. She acknowledges that accepting change is hard, but not accepting it makes life harder.

This keynote will brighten your sense of humour and help you surround yourself with people who share your newly positive mindset. Catherine promises you’ll never be afraid to shoot for the stars again!
