Mette Johannson, Singapore / Sweden
Golden Door - RKGF Medal (Bronze)
She worked in leadership roles across Asia and Europe for multinational corporations for over 15 years before she founded MetaMind Training.
This has to have been the most humbling yet empowering award ceremony I have ever been a part of. From the beginning, it felt like I was flowing along on a process with people who truly saw my message, the vision I held dear. The Golden Door Committee actually got me in the way nobody else had ; my truth, integrity and wholehearted work to empower and inspire those who had no voice, to find theirs in the same way I had found mine.
The encouragement given to us all on awards day is something I will always treasure and keep with me as I go for gold. I actually felt like I had just won the X factor and had visualised that dream many times over.
