How do you go from leaving school being told "there's nothing we can do for you" to becoming a leader in your field, someone who creates their own unique methodology that instructors now teach to create a trusted relationship between owner and pet gun dog?
Lez Graham's story is as interesting as it is inspiring. Despite leaving school without GCSE's, her career to date has included riding instructor, coder, project leader on Y2K for one of the world's largest financial institutions, kinesiologist specialising in human, equine and canine treatment, Founder of the Kinesiology Association of New Zealand, fire walk instructor, dog behaviourist and author. PHEW!
Hers is a story of following your passions, reframing set backs and earning accreditations and qualifications while working. Oh, and of giving back to others every step of the way. You'll notice throughout our conversation how in each instance Lez's own personal development isn't something she keeps to herself - she has a lifelong commitment to helping others.
Currently studying for a doctorate, Lez goes to show that learning most certainly doesn't take place just in the classroom and that what's said to you when you're a pupil at secondary school doesn't dictate what you're destined to be.
