Idrissa Turay was born and raised in Kabala, Sierra Leone, West Africa. During the crisis in his home country, he was able to migrate to Winnipeg, Canada. The only son of a large family, he uses music to connect to the people of his new country and the support of his fans to help the family he left behind. Music lifts his spirits has he responds to those who enjoy his melodies.  He says he’s learned that at heart, people are all the same.

Liz Van Reenen says, I know that there are no mistakes in life. I take more risks because experience has taught me that there really is no risk to living fully. Risk is a perception and a state of mind. I trust life and all that happens a lot more. When I do what’s in front of me and just practice right living, there are miracles in every day. Born with a severe case of shy-itus, Liz had to record her class presentations in high school and be out of the room. She’s not sure how it happened, but Liz van Reenen has been a professional speaker for three years now. She encourages people to get real and celebrate who they are, and reap the benefits of authentic living. There are no limits when you are simply all of you!

Stefan Aarnio is one of Canada’s leading up and coming Real Estate Entrepreneurs and the 2012 winner of Canadian Real Estate Wealth Magazine’s “Joint Venture Partner of the Year”. Starting with only $1200, Stefan has built a multi million dollar portfolio for his partners and has earned himself a spot on The Self Made List.  He says, “We do not actually love poetry, music, fine food, travelling, art etc. What we do love is the feelings we get from those things. When I “failed” as a musician, I learned to find all the feelings I loved about music through other activities and am much more happy, successful and wealthy today.”  www.freedomway.ca
