I am speaker who is a catalyst for companies who want to grow authentic leaders and their employees. My talks inspire them to bring their most powerful asset to their work; their authenticity 'I am Costa' - and with these three words on the cover of my new book I was no longer hiding. My journey to this authentic place in my life is what I passionately share in my talks, book and consultations. From a crippling crystal meth addiction to multiple marathons and Ironman races I have shown that true body, mind and spirit recovery is possible. On a deeper level I have found an authentic way of life that ensures that every step I take, now matches my own footprint. I inspire people using vulnerability, humour and my gutsy story to find their authentic selves, and show up unashamedly for who they really are to build a successful life. Key messages of mine revolve around authenticity, health, and transformation. www.thisiscosta.com for more information I am Costa; From Meth to Marathons: Published by Bookstorm. ‘An incredible story and a true testament to the strength we have.
