	Nephalie Demei – Planning and Catering. After teaching underprivileged adolescents English for four years, I have started teaching at a private secondary school in Amsterdam. More than the differences, it is the similarities among people that always catch my eye. I feel very fortunate to able to do what I do and I constantly seek opportunities to nurture and share that notion. website
	Tara Phillips – Communications & Speech Coaching. Tara has a way with words. She has used them to forge a career in brand communication, life coaching and public speaking. Relishing what most people abhor – standing up in front of a group and talking – she now coaches speakers to deliver their most impactful speech. website
