The speeches were made to open the festival and finally the lights went down and the film began.

info_outlineOn today's podcast I chatted with relationship crisis coach, Puya Delavar.
About 10 years ago Puya was on the brink - his successful corporate career came at a huge price as his marriage and his personal health were in crisis.
He had successfully played the corporate game, giving his career everything and more but realised that he was about to lose thievery thing that was most precious to him and he wanted to change.
It got so bad that his own doctor recommended that he should quit his job!
He studied and researched how to repair the damage and recover his relationship and this process of discovery not only led to what he calls “holistic success”, but it also led him on the path to helping other men who find themselves in the same life predicament.
Puya’s ‘Crisis to Connection’ programme helps men to face and embrace their emotions and over twelve weeks he helps them to repair their relationships and prosper.
Enjoy the show...
