About this event

Motivational Webinar with Kelvin

Kelvin’s motivational talk explains how he navigated bad influences and tough decisions to defy his critics and become a BMX World Champion. His session will explore the meaning of success and how that can change because of different circumstances in our lives. He will also explain and explore the mindset that he needed to finally become champion, making this practical and understandable for his audience. He prompts us to ask:

• What does success mean for me?

• Who do I need around me?

• Do I have a resilience mindset?

Worksheet materials for these questions are available to be downloaded for the Webinar.

Disclaimer: In these talks, our athletes describe the lowest points in their lives and how they overcame them. This is where the lessons for us are found. Considering this, please be aware that this talk makes mention of topics some viewers may find difficult to listen to. Across our speakers, the following triggering topics are mentioned: alcohol, depression, bullying, suicidal thoughts, self-harm, near-fatal accidents, amputation, chronic pain and illness, bereavement and assault. These topics are not to upset people. They are the real stories of our athletes and only serve to demonstrate the resilience they needed to recover from their setbacks to give context to their inspirational stories and subsequent lessons that we can also learn from.

Please note that all talks are positive in their conclusions and aspirational in their messaging. Most listeners will benefit from the talk by applying the lessons learnt to their own challenges. In some cases, listeners may relate directly to the experiences of our athletes and they will receive encouragement and a practical example of how to get through overcome and move forward.

However, we understand that this may be an overwhelming experience for some participants so if you are aware of learners in your group who are particularly vulnerable to some of the above topics and would like more specific details on your speaker to ensure the material is appropriate for your learners, or you would like to change your speaker, please contact Jared Patel (jaredpatel@bydesign-group.co.uk) or myself.
