Carla Schesser
Born 7th March 1994 in Johannesburg, South Africa, Carla and her family moved to Cairns, Australia in May 2005.
Carla was born with a rare disease which has fussed her spine stiff, stops muscle growth and makes it incredibly hard for her to gain and maintain weight. Carla has used these circumstances to motivate and inspire both herself and other youth. Carla believes that life will always throw you challenges but it’s up to you if you let those challenges become limitations or if you develop a warrior like mentality and not let anything stop you achieving what you desire. At 19 years old she ‘fired her boss’ and started following her passion in life. She now tours the country speaking with teens about persistence, making wise choice and taking responsibility for their life.
Her book #Success: Master the Basics to a Happy, Healthy and Wealthy Life was written with one thought in mind – create a simple, practical and motivating book any young adult could read that gives them the skill to identify their purpose in life then the inspiration and tools to live it.
Carla has the rare ability to connect with teens on their level because besides being a young adult herself, she speaks from experience in all areas in life. She is able to reach the audience in a way most can’t and inspire them to do what most don’t.
