”Roman’s comfort zone workshop was the highlight of the festival… A high ropes course without leaving the ground.”— Nereda (Participant), Island Vibe Festival
“The structure of the whole workshop was built really safely and beautifully for a big group to more intimate groups… and was really gentle, kind scaffolding.
Philosophically the the real message about growing in courage and experiencing the humility and excitement of living in the moment and to keep swimming was so encouraging. Everyone was able to engage from where they already were at in terms of skill and personality. It really was masterful.”- Lucinda (Participant), WOMADelaide

Using storytelling and reflection activities, any audience will unpack the vital role of heroes in our global story, the qualities that make a hero and how we might cultivate a hero’s mindset in our individual lives, through a lens that explores personal integrity and taking radical ownership of our story.
This workshop is designed to encourage any individual to own their personal and professional story and step further into the role of being the hero of one’s individual story.
“In my 20 years working in the youth justice space, I have not seen a skillset quite like Roman's and it is amazing. Our school supports the most vulnerable students in the state. They are not always an easy bunch to engage in anything, especially the under-15-year-olds.
Roman's delivery of the Your Inner Hero program was mind-blowing. Not only did they engage, but he used EVERYTHING thrown at him and turned it into a positive and a growth mindset opportunity. He is a pro at working with disengaged youth. I can't wait to see what develops over the next year with these students.”
- Principal Project Officer, Brisbane Youth Education and Training Centre“Engaging and encouraging for even our most vulnerable and quiet students. Roman is a great storyteller and able to connect with and inspire so many.” - Teacher, St James College (Yr 11 Workshop)
