Abigail uses her story as an opportunity to inspire, equip and empower others to face challenges, head-on, to bounce back and to achieve greatness. She talks about ideas of ‘success, failure, resilience’ and all that is in between. This interactive workshop on ‘Achieving Greatness’ will not just be about her, but also about us too!
