  • Talent Day - The Power of Inner Strength

    "I just wanted to say – thank you so much for making this event so wonderful! I’ve heard nothing but how amazed and touched people were by your story and how personal it was – almost as if we were there with you."

    Helga shared us with her incredible story of summiting Mount Everest. Her journey challenged us to reflect: What is the "summit" we are striving for? Who stands by our side on this ascent? And most crucially, how do we overcome the inevitable challenges we face along the way? We discovered that success isn't just about reaching the top — it's about the climb itself, building inner strength, and lifting each other up along the way.
