I Served 26 years in the Royal Air Force as a Communications Technician all over the world. The last 5 years were spent as a Drill Sergeant teaching new recruits the skills they needed to be an effective member of the RAF. Then I moved from the UK to Australia where I am now a Youth Development Coach. Helping young people (age 13-30) to achieve their dreams and desires, without causing too much chaos to others on their journey.
We asked Steve some questions:
What is your dream?My dream is to help as many young people as possible develop a toolbox of life skills that they can use at any given point in their futures to help them grow, develop and work their way through all of those pitfalls that everyone encounters during their life.
Who do you want to be connected with? I wish to be connected to young people who want to have a future, but are maybe not too sure how to get there, or even where “there” actually is? I want to be connected to anyone who is struggling in their lives and want to get out of the rut they currently find themselves in.
What opportunities are you looking for? To be able to raise the awareness of my business and to raise the awareness that the youth of today deserve a chance, just like we were given. Nobody should be written off.
