BEST MOMENTS "I do believe that we're all born pure, et cetera, and we're all born with so much love, abundance, potential, et cetera. But over the years, I think it's buried." "I was being coached on a personal level. By the way, I'm not born into personal development or business. I am absolutely completely different to my whole family." "I think I was trying to prove to myself. I think that's the thing I'm always trying to prove to myself." "I always say, asset is in wisdom. Asset is not what you've got, it's who you've become." "It's amazing what you can achieve, though. I haven't got any money, I can't do it. We're struggling, you know, beans on toast style, but I'll go and sell some stuff from the garage to get the three grand." HOST BIO Toni's journey defies the norm. Raised with a strong work ethic and a traditional career path in mind, she initially pursued a corporate job in HR after earning her degree. However, in 2015, everything changed when she attended a property training seminar. Little did she know that this event would ignite a profound passion for property investment. With her husband Chris, Toni raised millions in joint venture finance, creating a multi-million-pound property portfolio. But her story doesn't stop there. By the age of 33, she left her HR job behind to empower others in building their successful property businesses. Toni's passion for public speaking led her to become a world record holder. Beyond the accolades, she sees it as a calling to educate and inspire. Toni hosts training events and uses her "Talks with Toni" podcast to share insights, interview captivating guests, and motivate her audience.
