Leigh’s core principles
Every human inherently possesses a bottomless reservoir of inner strength.
To unlock that strength, we must learn to effectively focus our minds.
Movement and breath are the most efficient methods to calm and focus the mind.
The words we think and speak drive our approach to challenges and if we achieve greatness.
Our legacy is determined by the words we live by.
These principles, combined with her passion to help others, led her to create The Strength Blanket Project. The Blanket Project provides emotional support for cancer patients during treatment.
