The best advice my mum gave me: Nikki Arnold, Founder and Director of Inspired Living International

“The best thing my mum taught me was… to not put ALL of my time and energy into raising my children. My mum said that it was important to also focus on my husband and our relationship, making him a priority when possible and having date nights once a month. My husband and I are still very much in love, are very close, have time for one another and look forward to each date night with anticipation. Thanks Mum!”

The best advice my mum gave me: Maggie Georgopoulos, author

“The best thing my mum taught me was that everyone was the same. I was classed as the collector of strays when I was a kid as I always saw everyone as someone who wanted to be included. It meant that the reasons other kids had to avoid them weren’t applied and I liked them for who they were inside. It has lead to who I am today as I’m still a strong believer in diversity and that we all have the ability to succeed.”

The best advice my mum gave me: Chris Dyson, author

“The best thing my mum ever taught me was not to let circumstances get in the way of going after what I wanted in life and to believe I could achieve whatever I wanted. Being born with a serious heart condition, having open heart surgery at just 30 months old, experiencing over 100 cardiac arrests in a single day at age 7, receiving a pacemaker implant and then having a deadbeat dad walk away from our life, certainly could have given me reason to become a sheltered, meek person who felt sorry for myself, but my mum would never have allowed this and it made me who I am today – A successful professional hockey coach, heavily involved in the game I was never excepted to play because of my ‘condition’.” – Chris Dyson 


As an author and educator of coaches, children and parents, I am now an advocate for the ethical advancement of kids in minor sports and I am developing an online educational system for coaches that will allow us to accomplish the goal of helping 50,000 children and coaches in sports to better enjoy the game, stay within it longer and learn lessons that will enhance their lives forever. All because my mom taught me to go after what I wanted and believe in my ability to do anything. www.authorchrisdyson.com
