I feel incredibly grateful for my recent trip to Samoa—to join Kim Charteris-Wright & make the most of the opportunity to meet our amazing Free Spirit clients in person, reconnect with the Samoan family who looked after us so well, & revisit some of the beautiful places (especially the Lalomanu Coast) I remember from over a decade ago.
It was a perfectly balanced time of steady work & networking, combined with space to slow down, pause, reset & have FUN. I truly couldn’t have imagined a better way to celebrate 20 years with the Free Spirit family.
A huge thank you to my best friend & superstar boss, Kim, who made it all happen. This trip was a perfect time for us to reflect on the Free Spirit Training & Development journey - so many meaningful projects, the challenges we’ve overcome, & the many wins along the way.
Thanks also to Chris for holding the fort at the office back in Dunedin, & to my family for their support while Kim & I immersed ourselves in everything Samoa had to offer.
P.S. Here are a few photos from our adventure - hope they capture a little bit of the magic we’ve experienced.
