A Sydney native, and a University of Technology graduate, Myriam graduated with a degree in Adult education and training. This was the basis of her current business- even though she did not realize it yet, and she quickly entered the business world after 10 years as a training career. She was working as a corporate business trainer and had a four year old child already with number two on their way. It was then that a young Ms. Borg had her epiphany as to what to do with her life.

Myriam Borg had all the training she needed to start this business, and now had the passion to make it happen. It didnt take long to grow her business quickly, before selling it for a tidy profit. It was in this moment that she started her new passion. She personally put her first refund business on the market and was bombarded with many offers to buy. She made her choice on who to sell her business to, and then had the offer that changed her world. Many of her potential buyers were, understandably, a little miffed that they did not get to be the purchaser of the hugely successful refund business, but one such woman asked her the question that made her dream come to fruition. She said, ok it sold, but can you train me to do this myself? Myriam decided that yes she could do that for her, and anyone else that asked.

Ever the humanitarian, Myriam constantly is making choices that help others and make the world a better place.

It wasnt until I did this interview did I know what steez meant. I would have to say I like to dress with class most of the time. The rest of the time you could find me in yoga pants either exercising or hanging out with my kids.

Technology. Not only does it play such an important role in the way businesses succeed nowadays but I love the fact that I can work from anywhere I choose. Whether I am at my home office or off sailing somewhere I am running my business and taking care of people.
