Storms will come in life - things will not go the way you want them to. However do not run and hide, be like the peacock, simply give it your best and go out and dance in the rain.
Show your best - your true colours and simply dance
We like the outfit Sally is wearing - it is really the same colours as the Peacock ... Amazing ... The Universe was telling Sally that she is also like the peacock we think ;)

SoulKids® Mentors - Beautiful Inside and Out...
We managed to sneak in a short interview with the beautiful SoulKids® Mentors while they were teaching life-skills to 13 beautiful children.
 |
| Left to Right: SoulKids® Mentors - Siok, Zoe, Kheam and Amanda |
Zoe
The SoulKids® program is fun and teaches
the children important life-skills that will help them in all sorts of
situations, through teamwork activities. They learn how to be a good friend, to
never give up and believe in themselves, among other things. Just the fact that
they leave being positive and learn one or more lessons, in itself, is a
fulfilling experience.
Amanda
Being a SoulKids® Mentor is an amazing and thought provoking experience. The ability to invoke story-telling techniques into learning about
various aspects of self-confidence is inspiring. They learn to be passionate
and creative. It also teaches children to think differently – not like anyone
else. It’s wonderful to see the transformation from who they are when they
enter to who they become when they leave.
Siok
Being
positive is a key lesson taught at SoulKids®, as is seeing the good in yourself,
focusing on your actions, being a team leader and a team follower at various
times and growing your self-esteem through various engaging activities. It
gives children the tools to create, a bigger, better and brighter life for
themselves as well as those around them.
Kheam
The SoulKids® program gives me a chance to teach essential life-skills through story and play,
to a group of wonderful, children. The experience is at times full of light bulb moments! It
teaches you to expect the unexpected and that each child is special and unique.
What
lessons do children learn from SoulKids®?
They
learn:
Teamwork
To
be creative
To
think out of the box
To
be caring
To
be loving and warm
To
be positive
To
be confident and overcome their fears
That
each child is different and unique
To
deal with the unexpected
How
to be patient
Not
to fear new things
It’s
a fun and engaging workshop and it is wonderful to see the transformation in
only one hour!!

Interview with SoulKids® Mentor - Jackie Ashby
Sally has been out and about interviewing the newly graduated SoulKids® Mentors. She met up with Jackie Ashby, who last year, relocated from Anchorage (Alaska) to Singapore.
Q: So Jackie what bought you to SoulKids®?
Jackie: I was seeking the knowledge of transformation for myself and I also
had the curiosity of learning new ways of working with children.
Q: So how did you hear about
SoulKids®?
J: From Santa Fe Relocation Company. I received an invite from Santa Fe to attend a seminar at SoulCentre®.
Q: What was your experiences of the SoulKids® Mentor training and
the SoulKids® Weekend Program?
J: It was amazing and thought provoking.
- The ability to gain self-awareness about one's authentic self was astonishing.
- The ability to invoke story-telling techniques into learning about various aspects of self-confidence was also inspiring.
Q: How has SoulKids® changed you as an individual?
J: I am more open-minded, I engage in self-reflection and am learning
to apply an attitude of gratitude into my daily life.
Q: What was your favorite lesson from SoulKids®?
J: My favorite lesson was Vikas’s "Human Trinity Concept". How our mindset, attitude and
behavior are all connected and how this affects one's view of everyday life.
Also I love the Sunflower and Rose story. Do not compare yourself to others and what they have or may not have;
rather focus on what your assets are and improve them. By doing this imagine how great
we all could be, nothing would be impossible!!
Q: What are your visions and dreams going forward?
J: My vision moving forward is to always keep my eyes open and my brain
fed with lots of nutrients that provides positive energy. Keeping an attitude of gratitude will take me far.
Q: Wow that sounds amazing Jackie – a lovely Vision for sure. Anything else you want to share with our readers?
J: I just want to share
that experiencing my first SoulKids® Mentor Training was unforgettable and
rejuvenating
Sally: Thanks Jackie – we
really look forward to working more with you and taking SoulKids® global in the
months to come.

SoulKids® Rockstar - Ella
Sally our roving reporter has been out and about doing her interviews again. She met up with ELLA and had a wonderful discussion.
Q (Sally): Ella how old are you?
Ella: I am 8 years old
Q: You are fairly new to SoulKids®, when
did you attend?
E: About 2 weeks ago
Q: What did you like about SoulKids®?
E: I liked the stories because they
taught me new things. I also like the great teachers.
Wow thanks Ella – the teachers will be
happy to hear that!
Q: What was your favourite story?
E: I liked the Bruce Lee story because
it taught us never to give up and to always say YES to life.
Also once you start something, be determined and finish it.
Wow – great lesson Ella!
Q: Anything else you learnt?
E: I learnt to stop looking at others
and what they have got, and to start looking at yourself and what you have. Do
not be jealous of others- be happy with who you are and what you have got.
Amazing learning Ella – thanks for sharing.
Q: What would you like to see in the world?
E: I would like there to be no wars and
have peace.
I would also like to see flying cars.
Q: And what about your dream? What do
you want to be when you grow up?
E: I want to be a famous gymnastic teacher.
Wow Ella – that is exciting – what
qualities do you have to achieve this?
E: I am gifted in being strong and a
risk-taker.
I get lots of support and I practice a lot.
I also am happy when I help others.
Q: Anything else you learnt at SoulKids® you want to share?
E: Do not be afraid to put your hand up
and tell what you know, even if it’s wrong.
Make friends and be kind and happy to
others.
Do not feel sad when someone says something
bad to you because you are special.
Be STRONG and have CONFIDENCE to always be YOU.
Q: Wow Ella- you are amazing and I
think you will be an awesome teacher when you get older.
E: Can I tell one final story?
I had auditions a couple of days ago and
they told us our roles. I did not get a main role and I was really sad, but
then I thought life is full of opportunities and just because I did not get a
main role that does not mean I should stop loving acting and and stop doing it. Just because one audition did not work out
– it should not stop you from loving what you do.
Thanks Ella- great advice for us all.
We really look forward to having you back
in SoulKids® soon.
