"I love the daily sense of companionship, of having a coach on your side, pushing you on"

What challenges were you facing before starting the Quest, and how did that change after completing the Quest?

I have a lot of big dreams and ambitions, and over the last 18 months or so I have been very much immersed in Mindvalley to help me on my path.

I started Speak and Inspire on the 7th October 2019, and while this is not really the context to discuss that, it was a starting point and naturally connects me to Be Extraordinary.
Lisa Nichols had an enormous impact on me and helped me focus on the craft of storytelling in a way that really enhanced a beautiful solo concert I did in November that year (in the oldest monastery in Portugal).
I was invited specifically to do a concert that was a set of 10 of my songs, linked together with stories of the song's origins.
This context gave me the liberty to go into much deeper and more emotional stories (that I was able to access because of Lisa’s brilliant guidance in Speak and Inspire).
The result was a beautiful show and a book that’s almost complete, of the stories.

I started Be Extraordinary with the fuel that Lisa had given me, in the hope that it would help me to refocus on, and perhaps even rediscover, this ongoing path towards my authentic self, and my drive to be an artist at the highest possible level. I am happy to report I am getting closer to that vision, with another event that came to fruition as I was doing this Quest – a special concert in an amazing venue in Portugal accompanied by a world-class choir.
This will be a prestigious event, the most prestigious of my artistic life so far, full of love, and joy, a celebration of the spiritual life and the values that are reinforced by the Quest.
It’s top-secret for now, but I will share details about it when everything is in place.

What were the biggest positive changes that you have noticed?
 

One of the things I love is the daily sense of companionship, of having a coach on your side, pushing you on. I also love the feeling that Mindvalley is there to help you become the person you want to be, or the best possible version of yourself.

One of the biggest changes is that I have fully implemented an hour per day of Personal Growth time, and it feels essential, tremendously valuable - it’s helping me get to where I want to be. I feel supported, in other words.
My dreaming is a bit bolder, my decisions are quicker, I’m calm, clear, confident.

Reasons why I recommend this Quest are...

I can’t recommend Mindvalley enough, and this Quest was wonderful, it really helped me to dig deeper into myself, disrupted my life in many ways, in the best possible ways, which have resulted in clearing a pathway for myself. I still have a long way to go, but the best part is that I will be in the best possible company for the journey – and this Quest has helped me to see this too.
