I'm a freelance garden designer with a passion to creating green spaces designed to not only look good, but feel good too. I'm not a climate change activist and I like the finer things in life. But I do think we have lost the connection with nature and I hope to restore it by designing spaces that encourage people spending more time outside. As someone that was not born in UK, I've had to battle with impostor syndrome and stigma of being from Eastern Europe before I was allowed to earn my stripes. Now I'm a female entrepreneur with a burning desire to expand my brand, grow my company and inspire other girls and women in the process.

With a surprising blend of deadpan humor, infectious passion, captivating stories, and eye-opening participant interaction, David Shar is anything but your typical academic. As a behavioral scientist and subject matter expert, David makes the latest psychological research, best practices, and ready-to-implement tactics understandable and relatable to the entire audience. David combines decades of firsthand leadership experience with his extensive academic training and research to help his audiences improve their leadership and culture, combat burnout, and reignite their passion for work. As a young restauranteur of an ice cream franchise in the heart of Baltimore City, David thought he had business and leadership all figured out... until the day that a young frontline employee showed up to work shortly after learning that her boyfriend had been shot multiple times and left for dead. “As soon as she told me what had happened, I insisted that she go be with her family, her friends, or anywhere but work, as she grieved. But, she refused to leave. My employee explained that she ‘needed to be here... I can only be here... this is my happy place.’ Her words were forever ingrained in me… that's where my journey began.” While so many of David's friends and colleagues: nurses, doctors, lawyers, teachers, and HR professionals dreaded going to their objectively meaningful jobs on Monday morning, David's employees saw work as a refuge... a place where they were trusted, empowered, valued, and where they could have a positive impact on the world… They found meaning in scooping ice cream. “Ever since that day I've been on a journey to learn as much as I can about employee motivation, passion, meaningful work, and burnout prevention. A journey to learn and to share the art and science behind these things with leaders across industries, because when leaders can build strong passionate cultures, everyone wins.” David has worked with organizations and leaders from a large variety of industries as the president and founder of Illuminate PMC. In addition to David’s work within industry, David is also a popular adjunct professor at the University of Maryland’s rigorous Industrial/Organizational Psychology Master’s Program. He teaches a diverse set of courses including Talent Development, Performance Management, and Organizational Change. David is a SHRM-Senior Certified Professional. He holds his master's in industrial/organizational psychology and is a current doctoral candidate in business psychology at The Chicago School of Professional Psychology, where he is researching the interaction between meaningful work, burnout, and the changing nature of passion for work.

“In my almost 25(+) year career, I have been blessed to have spoken to large and small audiences in dozens of states, Canada, Thailand and around the world… and I have never stopped being inspired and thrilled at the same time. To me, the most important part of any and every talk/speech or training session and all the messages I share or will share will always be the audience who receives them. I find a huge amount of joy when speaking and sharing and even more so when I witness and feel them (the audience) engaging, sometimes laughing, sometimes crying but all of the time learning”. “What a refreshing approach to life and learning. Dale's heart-centered LIVE Now coaching classes, 28 Day Sculpting Challenge and events are packed with Live NOW tools… All delivered with deep sincerity, humor and a-ha moments.” Craig King, COO “I fill my seminars and training with tangible tools and methods for using that creates enthusiasm about the life you have been gifted (and soften business) and the amazing place you can take it”. Diagnosed with terminal Systemic Lupus, in 1975 and surviving heart attacks, a transplant, emergency open-heart surgery and many, many other challenges throughout his life, Dale has persevered to follow a belief and career path with one driving focus; Helping people own the life they have been gifted… and to be consciously awake. His deep belief is that no matter our differences or where we seek or look, each of us at some level, has a desire to know ourselves better…to grow our skills…to know who we are…to know why we are…to know how to grow beyond perceived restrictions. Dedicated to helping others, Dale takes his audiences and students on a real and tangible roller-coaster ride through truth and personal discovery that combined with application tools and a connection that leaves each person with real-life solutions, enthusiastically elevated and a new spark of belief about being all they choose to “be.” One of the many differences is that Dale writes the curriculum, provides the tools, and presents it based on “real life". His philosophy- “We are only alive NOW but not often are not really living now. People can and probably should alter this way of thinking and doing. Lawrence’s teaching is about learning how to consciously grow from the inside out by wrapping your heart and thinking around current programming, lack of belief, and lack of a process than can launch you forward instead of holding us back.” According to Lawrence, his Live NOW coaching as a name is no accident. Live NOW is all anyone can do. The questions; is this your best life now or, can you find reasons to alter your course? You CAN change your direction and own who you are, who you are going to be and your way of engaging in your life and/or business.

I’m a speaker and educator, passionate about translating overly complex financial speak* into plain English so Freelancers and Agency Owners can understand it. *I call it “accountant-ese” - an overly complex language that is most often spoken by financial planners and accountants. I could, literally, talk all day. So here is the short version of “The Life of Nev”. 6 facts about me… 1. I'm an Agency Owner and I teach other Agency Owners and Freelancers how to understand their money so they can use it as a tool to make better decisions, have less stress, more freedom, and higher profits. In non-copy speak, I show businesses how to know their numbers (so they can make heaps more money without trying that hard). 2. I’m a speaker and I travel internationally to talk to agencies and freelancers about understanding money and using that knowledge as a tool to grow profits. I really, really like talking about and teaching people about money (which is great because I suck at almost everything else). 3. I figured out a few years ago that I HATE having a boss so I turned my talents to something that really lit a fire under my ass: Improving the financial literacy of Agency Owners and Freelancers. 4. I get really (REALLY) angry at how inaccessible and complicated the finance niche makes money out to be. It definitely doesn’t have to be like that. In fact, I could rant on that all day. And sometimes I do. 5. When I’m not spending my time talking about money, I spend my time working out, drinking smoothies and reading the Wall Street Journal. Yes, I’m incredibly wholesome but don’t let that turn you off working with me. I’m a wicked Cards Against Humanity player and always up for a “robust” discussion paired with a robust glass of red. 6. I firmly believe money talk doesn’t need to be scary. Or boring. Or something you do behind closed doors with an accountant who looks like your dad wearing his funeral suit. Life’s too short for that stuff. Know your numbers, create your freedom. Easy!
