SUPPORT | GUIDE | EMPOWER #TheCentreOfYouthDevelopment
Leadership of others starts with leading ourselves first
What does it take to stand up, thrive, and be a true leader? Not just in a
team environment, but in every single environment you walk into...
What's so powerful about this skill, and what are the principles to focus
on when looking to develop leadership in ourselves...
This episode of YD was one for the ages. It was an immense amount of fun to
sit down with one of our OG's to discuss his growth over the past 24
months, what his sights are set on for the next 12 months, how he's going
to get there, what leadership is to him, and how to take the leadership
role and thrive in any environment

At the age of 7, this world-class young lady was taken to the AIS for a
3-month trial & clinic for a spot in their Gymnastics Program
The rest, as they say, is history
This isn't one of those fairytale stories however, as they often never are.
This story is filled with heartache, tears, Commonwealth Games Sliver
Medals, and lessons to last a lifetime
Severe Injuries. Heartache. Commonwealth Games. Silver Medals. Tears of
Joy. Making the Olympics Games Squad...
It's been the journey of a lifetime for this week's Youth Development
Guest, and in her early twenties she's experienced more in life than many
of us will in a lifetime
This experience breeds knowledge and wisdom, and that's what she passes
onto the youth and their parents today
In this episode with Mary-Anne Monckton Australian Elite Gymnast, we go
deep into:
✅ What makes a true champion
✅ Lessons learned from the international arena
✅ Why we're not our achievements
✅ How to fight for what you want
✅ And much more...

This young man was once knocked out within the first 10 seconds of the
first round of the National Judo Championships...
The very next year, he narrowly lost winning it
He's fought his way through the ranks of the local football competition -
from 2nd grade, to 1st grade, to the NPL - and now, he's in the Newcastle
Jets Youth System
He may be incredibly soft-spoken and come across as a little shy, but don't
let that fool you, as H knows a thing or two about fighting it out and
working hard
In this episode of Youth Development, we cover H's journey these past few
years, what he credits his achievements to, some gratitude for his parents,
and much more

evolve in life
