Jolt Provides the burst of fresh thinking needed to upgrade yourself from ordinary to extraordinary

Deep within all of us lies an inner spark to be unleashed, if only we can find the way to shape our thinking, carve out the right action, and rock the world. Jolt will show you how to:

- Shake up your thinking, embrace the new and unleash the extraordinary version of yourself
- Help make a sustainable gear change
- Recognize the habits and limiting beliefs holding you back
- Test out new ways of thinking and doing things
