Tell us about your journey into healing.
It was almost by accident! It happened when I took a sabbatical from my high flying career in banking; I was the Director of Marketing for a banking institution, which is now called Clear Stream. I decided to take a sabbatical since I was looking for a different kind of job. I fully expected to learn to fly because I was passionate about it, but, instead, I had a call from the spiritual world. It was in that year that I found a French meditation teacher in La Source in Grenada. His technique gripped me. That was the first time I had stillness in my life. Wherever I travelled that year, I met healers or mediums or psychics. It was natural for me to gravitate towards healing.
