Date: Thursday 22nd November 2022 Time: 1:00pm - 2:00pm (NZDT) Price: FREE Course level: Beginners/Intermediate Many professionals today are becoming more exhausted and frustrated than ever before. They know there is more to life than the treadmill they are finding themselves on, but they aren’t quite sure how to get it.
