Amberley was born in California as the second to six children. Amberley fell in love with horses at a young age and began barrel racing when her family moved to Utah at her age of 7. She competed in junior rodeos and up into high school, winning multiple titles and awards.

Her senior year she finished as the National Little Britches World All Around Cowgirl. Amberley was also serving as the Utah FFA State President in 2009.

In January of 2010, Amberley was involved in a rollover truck accident, leaving her paralyzed from the waist down. Eighteen months after that day, with a seatbelt on her saddle, she returned to competing in rodeo. She now competes in the Women's Professional Rodeo Association in the barrel racing.

Amberley has earned her place competing amongst professional barrel racers and has won multiple awards with the Cowboy and Cowgirl Hall of Fames. In 2018, Netflix released a movie based on her life titled Walk Ride Rodeo where Amberley was able to be her own stunt double for the film. Amberley shares her story of triumph over tragedy hoping she can motivate others to believe in themselves and get back on the horse.

In the early hours of Christmas Eve 2007, Royal Marines Commando Mark Ormrod was out on a routine foot patrol in the Helmand Province of Afghanistan when he stepped on and triggered an Improvised Explosive Device. 

Thanks to the swift action of the men around him and the intervention of the Medical Emergency Response Team he was airlifted via helicopter to an emergency field hospital in a desperate attempt to try and save his life. 

An innovative and dangerous procedure carried out onboard a Chinook helicopter en route to the hospital did save his life. 

He woke up three days later in the UK in Selly Oak Hospital, Birmingham: Both legs amputated above the knee and his right arm amputated above the elbow. 

He was the UK’s first triple amputee to survive the Afghanistan conflict.

During his recovery the doctors told him that he’d never walk again and that he should prepare himself for the rest of his life in a wheelchair.

Now it would have been understandable for Mark to bitterly withdraw in a state of anger and depression and to resign himself to live life on the sidelines. 

It would have been easy for him to cash in his disability pension and whittle away the days, forever regretting the decision to join the Marines and to deploy to Afghanistan, but he didn’t. 

To the contrary he used his set back as a springboard for growth and reinvention.

Today, Mark Ormrod is an internationally acclaimed motivational speaker, a peak performance coach, and the author of the award winning auto-biography Man Down. He is a source of daily inspiration for the thousands of people who follow him on Social Media. 

He has three children, a beautiful wife and an insatiable lust for life. He is a relentless charitable fund-raiser and a daredevil who has performed stunts that many able bodied athletes would find daunting. 

He has not used a wheel chair since June 9th 2009 and he jokes about the fact that children call him Iron-Man because of his high-tech prosthetics legs. 

As well as a peak performance coach he is a mentor and a role model to other amputees and an ambassador for the Royal Marines Association. 

His sense of humour is only equalled by his sense of wonder, love for learning and love for life.

Mark Ormrod turned his personal tragedy into an on going story of personal success and he is now committed to helping others who may have suffered setbacks or feel they are not yet achieving their maximum potential to take charge of their lives, unleash their personal power and live a life with #NoLimits

Hi. I'm Scott.

I am entering my 24th year with the FranklinCovey Company. For just shy of the past decade, I have served as the Chief Marketing Officer and a member of our executive team. I have recently transitioned in the firm to become our Executive Vice President of Thought Leadership. In this role, I focus on growing the reach and impact of our renowned authors and speakers including Stephen M.R. Covey, Chris McChesney, Kory Kogon, Todd Davis and others. I am also responsible for our speakers bureau, book and media publishing, public relations and other strategic initiatives.

I am honored to host FranklinCovey’s On Leadership interview series; the industry’s fastest growing weekly digital newsletter dedicated to improving our leadership capabilities. Each week we feature renowned experts and authors including such luminaries as Susan Cain, Seth Godin, Dan Pink, Doris Kearns Goodwin, Carly Fiorina,, Liz Wiseman, Rachel Hollis, Geoffrey Moore, General Stanley McChrystal, and numerous others. Subscribe to On Leadership: http://www.franklincovey.com/on

Additionally, I am a #1 best-selling author of my first book, Management Mess to Leadership Success, and a WSJ best-selling author of my second book, Everyone Deserves a Great Manager.

Before joining FranklinCovey, I spent four years with the Disney Development Company in Orlando, FL and had served on numerous congressional, senate and presidential campaigns.

Above all, I am honest, hard-working, and truly and sincerely believe in the work I’m doing to help people own their mess.

Just finished reading the book Becoming The 0.1%. The biggest takeaway for me was the Figure on Page 70. The small (relative to life) sacrifice it will take to achieve a significant, life-changing goal.

Crazy how I came across this book but so glad I followed through with the thought and purchased a copy. Apart from the interesting insight into a world that is beyond what I could ever imagine, the way Gareth relates this back to how everyone could apply what he learnt is amazing.

I found his Lessons and Key points at the end of each chapter full of so much wisdom.

This is an incredible read for budding entrepreneurs as it is not all sunshine and roses, and you need to take the hits and keep moving forward which was an overarching message for me from this book.

All I can say is thank you Gareth for persevering back in 2005 and keeping a diary so today we can have that insight into your learnings.

From Gareth's website "This book documents the uncertain journey towards achieving a 1/1000 goal, intricately unpicks how it was done and offers transferrable insight and advice that can be applied to other things in life, so the reader can achieve large and often intimidating goals. The strong message that comes through is one of self-agency – the author demonstrates how with focus & determination and living in the present, anyone can achieve dramatic life transformation and have the future they desire.

Becoming the 0.1%, therefore, systematically documents what can be learnt from elite military training and explains with experience and academic insights how it can be applied to all walks of life."

Donna and I first met Tom Hendrick as a recommendation from a friend of his, Lachlan Mullen, who we met on our Journey of meeting people every day.

Tom was a tax lawyer with Adelaide's largest law firm, until he left to start Adelaide Speaking Training.  

Tom helps businesses and individuals achieve outcomes when they speak, with less preparation time, and with more confidence.

At the age of 15, Tom delivered a one-hour stand-up comedy show in front of his whole school.  He won a series of auditions and competed at the Australian Public Service Great Debate, hosted by author and radio host Adam Spencer.  Tom also has a growing number of speaking awards from various associations. 

Adelaide Speaking Training provides personal and group speaking training using a method inspired by personal fitness trainers.  If going to the gym can affordably transform your health, where are the gyms for changing how we communicate? 

Tom's aspiration for Adelaide Speaking Training is to get people running towards the microphone, not away from it.
