Coffee with Phil – an interview with Mary Wanhill
CWP.7. Live Life Wide Open.
When you race a motocross bike you want to have the throttle “wide open” as much as you can. That’s because you want to be the fastest in order to win. But what about when your life shifts? What does it mean to live life “wide open”?
Mary Wanhill and her husband Joel lead an organisation called Youth Encounter, where they invest in young people to help them discover who they are and how to succeed. As Mary says, “When you try and uncover the gold in someone they don’t mind when you remove some of the dirt.”
Before Mary worked with youth she had a career racing dirt bikes and then as an international athlete completing massive jumps and tricks in the air while on her bike. No wonder they called her “Scary Mary”!
Enjoy this interview with Mary – her stories are bound to encourage you.
