What is success? What does it mean to be enough? Do our imperfections matter? Paula Constant outlines her trek through some of the world's most hostile terrain in what was to be a journey of self discovery. Her discovery was a realisation that we need to change the way we define success. This is her story.
In 2004, Paula packed her life into a backpack and began walking from London. She continued walking for three years, covering over 12,000km through eight countries, including 7,000km across the Sahara. Upon returning from the desert, Paula began to speak to schools, groups and corporations about identifying what success looks like and how to achieve it. Gradually she began to feel something was missing from her talks and she set out to find what that was.
