info_outlineSo we are deep into a story together…
A story of the darkest must tumultuous time in my life.
A time that almost ended me.
And now things are about to get very, very weird,
It starts with an event that spiralled me into panic followed by multiple appointments with the UK’s top specialists.
And then there was a flash of intuition from my mentor that turned my entire world upside down.
And of course, because I was at rock bottom, turning my entire world upside down sent me soaring amongst the stars!
A new me. A new beginning. A new life.
You will of course make your own conclusions about what happened.
Was it a message from the Universe? Was it nature intervening? Was it a ‘million in one’ pure coincidence? Or did God have a hand in my fate?
I know what I believe.
In fact I know what I know…
Now I’m curious to hear how you put the pieces of the puzzle together in your mind.
