The Voice on Fire Interview - Series #5 - Terri Tonkin - Be inspired by everyday people. Become a Change Agent and make the world a better place.

Terri is an International Best-Selling author; speaker; facilitator; mentor and coach, and now ghostwriter.

Writing her own book, "My Time To Shine" started her love and passion for writing, and she went on to become a contributing author to several compilation books.

Recently, Terri began her ghostwriting services for those wishing to tell their stories. Her clients are heard, validated, acknowledged, encouraged, and supported to find the solutions they are searching for.

Terri believes every person has the capacity within them to create the life they choose to have, and to write and share their story. By assisting her clients to transition and transform, a ripple effect is created when they are able to empower others by paying it forward.

Terri aspires to inspire the people she meets to reach their potential, as inspiration leads to motivation, and motivation leads to action, providing results.

Her life has been a journey of ups and downs, trials and tribulations, both personally and professionally. She is a life-long learner, seeks out new opportunities, is an avid writer and reader and loves to travel. Terri draws on her diverse skills developed through her experiences, numerous employment opportunities, networking, and cultural awareness from the many locations in which she has lived.

Terri is committed to inspiring people to action and to busting through limitations and old beliefs. After her initial Defence Force service, Terri's life with her Defence Forces husband has meant relocation, adaption, and readjustment, and instilled in her an appreciation for life-long learning, travel, and cultural awareness.

Then, Terri's brother ended his life and from tragedy and heartache came a stronger realisation that tomorrow is never promised and the time to live is now.

Running her first marathon at 54, returning to study at 58, starting her business Connect Within at 59, writing her first book at 60 and now a ghostwriter helping others to reveal their own untold stories, Terri is living proof that we must live life on our terms, and she certainly is inspiring others to do this.

TRADITIONAL ACKNOWLEDGEMENT

I wish to respectfully acknowledge the Traditional Owners of the land where I live, work and study, the Kulin Nation people, and pay my respects to their Elders past, present and future.

I also acknowledge I am living on stolen ground, the land we now know as Australia, and that sovereignty was never ceded.

I celebrate First Australian history and the survival of the world’s oldest continuous culture and extend my deepest apologies for the horrific transgressions of my ancestors. I am sorry.

I recognise the vital role of Treaty and Uluru Statement, and openly support Indigenous People's Voice in all areas including the Constitution.

I pray for Indigenous Equity and world peace.
