From Recluse to Unstoppable International Speaker with Vicky Martin – 066
After leaving her job as an auditor and feeling like a helpless victim, Vicky Martin spent four years hiding from the world. Then something happened that gave her the strength to take back control of her life. She switched careers and found her purpose.
That was 19 years ago, when she became a Tattooist. Over the 19 years since she has developed her skills in tattooing to become an industry expert, teacher and international public speaker. She has also spent years studying the mind and its impact on our lives, and today its part of the medical tattooing she teaches, the service she gives clients and her public speaking.
She is passionate about helping people discover their best selves and become Unstoppable and she shares her journey and tips about mindset and speaking on this show.
