Dr Howard has always worked with people and helped them self-actualize and become more of themselves. After working in a psychiatry unit for many years, he knew that he wanted to continue his work outside of an organisation or corporation. (1:54)
Mark said he always thought feeling meant something, that they were a product of his environment and circumstances, but he came to an insight that feeling were made of nothing. (4:55)
Mark started sharing these principles with his staff and noticed some changes happening within the group in regards to being helpful and more lighthearted with each other. As he also started sharing his finding with his recovering addiction clients, he noticed major transformations. (12:50)
When it came to Mark leaving the major medical centre and starting out on his own venture, he already had the grounding and understanding of the principles and the client experience. What he didn’t have was the experience on how to get his name out there. To overcome this he went to organisations in his community and asked to speak at their lunch time and dinner meetings. (29:40)
