Testimonials
“…You are simply one inspiring human being, thank you for sharing your journey! Anyone that is fortunate enough to be in your company is given the opportunity to truly understand the foundational elements of true holistic person-centred care and how it truly is a non-negotiable and an absolute human right.”
Tanya
Director of Community Health, Timboon and District Healthcare Service.
“I have heard you speak Emma and been absolutely blown away by the value in what you have to say. The combination of the patient perspective and the clinician perspective is a treasure! It’s gold!”
Susan Aldrich
Occupational Therapist
“Not only is Emma an absolute joy to work with but her unique journey and insights are the most inspirational to learn about, both personally and professionally. I’ve engaged with Emma on two occasions now and we will continue to collaborate in the future. My speech pathology team were lucky enough to hear Emma speak and they left feeling so empowered to approach their clinical work with a new found perspective and, practise our mission with even more precision and understanding; ‘to empower every person to reach their full potential’. Emma highlights her rehabilitation journey following stroke and the critical impact that holistic and functional approaches to care made to her outcomes. Emma is a true inspiration to all and encapsulates, so beautifully in her words that; ‘it’s not what happens in life that matters, it’s how you choose to deal with it’. I can’t recommend Emma more highly for your next professional event! An absolute icon!”
