About Our Presenter:

Dr G took the traditional path — med school, hospital, GP training, Fellowship — and somewhere along the way, fell in love with entrepreneurship (although it didn’t always love him back).

He wrote blogs no one read.

He ran bootcamps that no one came to.

He has led wellbeing programs in primary schools (this wasn’t too bad).

Eventually, he found his way into coaching, speaking, and authoring — building a career that is aligned with his values and lit him up.

This year, he published his first book Do Happy, a dream come true that he dedicates to his patients (and the person he once was).

Now, he helps doctors and health professionals do the same — make money, doing meaningful work, that they love.
