Authentic Happiness

Summit 2011

Discover how you can be happier, healthier and truly authentic now and forever!

Like most of us your life is out of kilter, isn’t it?

To be honest, that’s not really a question. You see, as a kid you weren't expecting life to be quite so... challenging (that’s the polite word for it).

  1. •Weren’t relationships meant to last forever?

  2. •Weren’t you meant to enjoy what you did for a living?

  3. •Weren’t you meant to be wealthier?

  4. •Weren’t you meant to have more fun?

  5. •Weren’t you meant to be, well, happier?

Well how would it be if you knew you could be happy not only now, but five years from now, and ten years from now? That you’ll be happy whether the sun shines or the rain pours? That at the end of your life, you’ll look back and smile?

Well, here’s the thing we all know but we all forget: Real happiness is not about what you have. It’s about who you’re being.

The coaches we create deal everyday with the frustrations people feel in their lives. And the transformation we bring about is really more about shifting the person’s ultimate connection with themselves and their happiness.

That’s why I am so thrilled to be holding the

Over the course of one MIND-blowing day you’ll hear from a range of POWERFUL SPEAKERS who will help you discover how to gain the authentic happiness you desire.

You’ll explore where your own happiness lies and how you can harness your natural ability to be truly happy.

You see, authentic happiness is not about wanting to be happy for a moment. It’s not just having a romantic date, a fun night out with friends or an evening at a music concert. This is all fun but it passes, it fades.

Authentic happiness is deep and lasting and real.

Authentic happiness doesn’t depend on anything or anyone having to be in your life. It’s about realising that you are complete as you are.

You might already be aware that your current beliefs and attitudes are sabotaging your life but perhaps you didn’t realise how you can take hold of these and banish them so you’re in control of your happiness.

The Authentic Happiness Summit is a unique event designed to help you take control of your beliefs and attitudes and to find the power to make the decision to live an authentically happy life.

With blistering speakers each with a message, not only of hope, but also practical, down-to-earth advice and tips, you’ll come away transformed.

Each speaker is a leading coach from the Smart School and each is blazing a trail in their field.

You’ll have a wonderful, memorable day but we want it to be more than a memory. We want it to be a line in the sand for you.  We want you to stake a claim on your happiness.

This Summit is now SOLD OUT – sorry if you have missed out

At the end of the summit,
you can fully embrace that:

Happiness doesn't depend on anyone but you

You are loved and people
are there for you

You can choose
to see life differently

You have the power to create
the life you want

Your happiness actually increases your ability to
take mighty action

You can be different; you aren't predestined to a life of struggle

I urge you to take this one day to step out of your daily routine and draw that line in the sand of your life.

Rachel Smith

Re-emerging to Happiness After Loss

Who hasn’t experienced some loss in their life?  Be it bereavement,  breakdown of a relationship, health, job or even a home. Your past experiences shape who you are but they needn't define how you are being, today or in the future. Authentic happiness comes from a place of peace, compassion and forgiveness.  Being happy today means making peace with your past. Rachel Smith, founder of Re-emerging Widows shares how to re-emerge from loss to a life filled with happiness.

Michael Pagnotta

Becoming Truly Resilient to the Negative Forces

With the amount of negative media coverage barraging our eyes and minds on a daily basis, it's no wonder people find it hard to realise their desired ambitions. As these words and images come into our minds, they immediately affect our way of thinking, our behaviour and the language we use. Before we know it, we find that the goals we seek to achieve for a more contented life can at times become an uphill battle. Michael will show you how to overcome this outside influence to increase confidence, change thinking patterns and increase self-awareness using powerful, proven techniques.

Claire Habel

Build An Inspiring Future From Your Passion

What if you could turn your passion into a way to live.  Who said we were meant to work for someone? Imagine not doing work that grinds you down or waiting for someone else' permission to change how you do things or even take time off.  How would it feel to be in control?  Claire Habel, founder of Inspiring Futures, helps women turn their passions into a business transforming their lives in the process. Claire will give you a glimpse of what running your own business can help you achieve personally, as well as providing some powerful cornerstones for getting started.

Olamide Agbaimoni

How to Look Good "Naked"

Clothes do more than just keep us warm and modest! They allow to project carefully cultivated images and keep our true identities hidden.  They are our armour around our vulnerability and weaknesses.  So how would it feel to look good "naked"?  To be the real you, accepted as you are with no façade, no shield and no pretence. Let Olamide show you how to strip down to the real you inside and we promise you'll stay fully clothed in this session!

Mary White

Time for Play

Mary will present a vibrant way of looking at life that makes it a game and allows us to remember the joy of discovery and play that we had when we young. She will show how play can be at the very core of how we live our lives and that when play is embraced as a philosophy and practice, it gives us power beyond expectation.

Paul Kensett

Beyond Fear and Self-limitations

Life isn’t all a bed of roses.  We face pain, rejection and fear.  It’s all part of life’s rich experience but it often leaves an indelible mark. Paul Kensett, lead trainer at the Smart School and founder of The Freedom Coach describes how you can move beyond fear and the beliefs that hold you back to regain control of your life.  He’ll offer powerful exercises that can be used throughout your life to remain strong, determined and purposeful.

Nick Bolton

Nick is committed more than anything else to the principle of owning your own life and allowing blame, excuses and pain to simply blow away.
