Aged just 21, travelling to the Kalahari desert 5000 miles away from anyone she knew, Gillie Barlow started her own journey of self-discovery. Seeing life from different perspectives, one day she had a dream of a mountain house and disabled people. Learning that first you have to understand your truth to find your success, through strength and resilience and a maxim of “I’m going to do it, the question is how?”, Gillie found fulfilment whilst pursuing this dream.
KEY TAKEAWAY
“We have to pick ourselves up and remember that we're responsible, mainly for ourselves. We're responsible for our own lives and how we take things, how we react to things. How we empower ourselves or not is up to us.”

property but even more for people. A property entrepreneur

where she lived for a while, working with a safari

formation of the person she believes she is today.
