More about Kay: Kay Suthar has made it her life goal to empower individuals, entrepreneurs, groups and businesses in order to maximise their potential and expedite their success by assisting in achieving their goals and improving their performance through various business strategies. Kay transitioned from having several health issues at one time, to closing sales, streamlining businesses and managing their finances to hit monthly targets before embarking on her own. Now she is running her very own business, coaching and training others. So successful are her methods Kay received a letter from the Queen of England advising her that her book had been specially selected to be placed in the Private Royal Library. Furthermore, she was presented with an award for “The Authority in Inspirational Journey to Success” at her book launch in Toronto, Canada for her outstanding contribution. Soon after this then led to Kay being interviewed on TV in New York, where she was featured on MNN, Roku Channels, Footprint TV, Amazon Fire TV, Huffington Post and ITunes. She was also approached by magazine editors from One Tribe Magazine who are one of the best personal growth magazine resource. Kay has been involved in an amazing charity called Bali Wise which is located in Indonesia, where she also lived for 2 years. The charity empowers women through skills and education as a means to develop sustainable communities in Indonesia. Her role is to use her teachings to transform the women from being traditional housewives into growing and monetising their skills to achieve a better quality of life for them and their families. Kay created Uncensored Society for entrepreneurs and business owners to help them with the 5 main pillars of business, Sales, Marketing, Finance, Operations and Leadership. This also includes the most important areas of their business lives: personal-growth and balancing family and career. The goal is to provide entrepreneurs with the resources, tools, and skills they need to prosper and succeed with their business. As an entrepreneur, I believe that it is important to be able to use strategies that are result based, to be undeniably genuine & authentic as well as being resourceful, creative, committed, determined & UNSTOPPABLE!
