Please join us in welcoming:
EMILY SLOAN, board member. Emily is a born entrepreneur who has run an events/creative agency for the last 6 years. After working in the film industry, at a digital agency and for several of SA’s biggest event companies, she realised that working as a salaried employee wasn’t for her. She accepted that she had no choice but to dig deep and find the confidence, strength, willpower, and ‘whatever it takes attitude to shift that reality.
A healthy pile of failed small businesses gave her the grit to learn how to dust off and ‘keep eating the elephant one bite at a time’. She now knows, with clarity that she is the master of her reality. “It’s not always rainbows and bubbles but it’s always mine and I’m learning how to vibrate more of my authenticity into my world. This is my greatest achievement because I’ve come to realise that anything is possible if we tap into our inner, authentic power”.

With over 20 years of financial services experience, he has worked for some of the largest financial services companies in the country (USA) in various positions such as Regional Vice President for Evergreen Investments and Senior Vice President for both Wells Fargo Advisors and FSC Securities.
ED can be described as a servant leader because he lives a life of servitude. One of his favourite bible quotes is “give and it shall be given unto you”, because he believes that through servitude you can not only assist others in realizing their dreams, but you will eventually realize your own.
Because of his servants' heart, he is very active in building community and serves on several nonprofit boards such as Board Vice President of SwingPals, Intermin Board Chair for United Against Slavery, Helius and Co-Founder/Steering Committee member of 100 Men Who Give A Damn.
