Jamie Fitzgerald
Jamie Fitzgerald strives for success in everything he does, and is constantly searching for new ways to test his own boundaries. Early in 2007, Jamie became the first ever Kiwi to reach the South Pole unsupported on foot with fellow adventurer Kevin Biggar. This 52-day expedition created media attention world wide as they implemented a 'business-like' approach to reaching success.
Jamie also holds the world record for rowing across the Atlantic Ocean (5000km) in a tiny row-boat in 2003 (again with Biggar).

Jason Barrell
Jason Barrell has gone through a lot: dyslexia, a broken neck, the loss of a promising rugby career, a tumour that took him close to death, facial paralysis, brain surgery, the loss of a second career, fatigue, depression, stage fright...and has survived it all.
Some would say Jason is "unlucky" but he thinks otherwise. "It never fails to amaze me how much strength can be found in adversity." Although Jason, an ordinary Kiwi bloke, has had more than his share of challenges, it is these adversities that have made him one of New Zealand's most successful inspirational speakers and has motivated him to share his experiences

Eighteen months ago she contracted localised osteoporosis and was confined to a wheelchair.
None of this has stopped Sheryl setting up in her new career as a financial adviser.
