Guest Biography:
When I’m not coaching my clients, speaking on stages or volunteering at my children’s school, I am sitting at my computer writing or scribbling notes into any note  taking device I can get my hands on.



Someone asked me the age old question not long ago, “If you were stranded on a desert island with only one thing, what would that thing be?" My answer was "a notebook with pen attached." My pen is my magic wand and I practically panic when I don’t have something to record my thoughts with.



Several years ago the writing faucet turned on and I haven’t been able to turn it off. My thoughts are a continual stream of insights that inspire even me. And because I am so inspired by the message that moves through me I wouldn’t want to turn off this wondrous gift.



My first book “Transcending Fear: The Journey to Freedom and Fulfillment” is now available everywhere books are sold.  My series of illustrated children’s books are in the works, and before you know it, a few other non-fiction books in the publication process will be making their way into the world.



Along with my books I write my "Practical Magic" Blog. A blog that I recently started up to go along with my magical new brand and I write The Polygamist Daughter's Blog where I share stories with my readers about growing up on “The Ranch”.  I also maintain a monthly newsletter where I share my insights, stories and other yummy things that come across my path.

Guest Biography:

Better known as The Word Queen, I have been a professional writer since the age of seventeen, initially for local newspapers, before progressing to corporate publications and magazines. I have even written for OK magazine!

I now spend my time writing and publishing books which empower people and spread Loving and Light to the world.

I grew up on the edge of a council estate in south east London in a quiet street called Thorn Close which I never liked the name of much.

I lived in that four bedroom semi for the first eighteen years of my life before I moved out and bought my first flat in Dartford. I rented out my spare room to a varied collection of tenants before I sold it in order to move to Spain at the age of 23.

My favourite pastime as a child was reading and I would go to the library with my mum and take out the maximum number of books allowed, then go home and read them all within a couple of hours. I was a true bookworm!

I also loved to write and when I wasn’t reading, I could often be found sitting on the kitchen floor penning a cute little story while my mum worked through a pile of ironing.

Growing up, I collected furry toys and the two that never left my side were my pink frog, Pinkie, and my hand-knitted gollywog, Jolly. I still have Pinkie today but unfortunately, little by little, Jolly fell to pieces and couldn’t be salvaged.

As an adult I have an over-active imagination, a positive outlook on life, and I adore rainbows, stars, hearts, flowers, butterflies, and anything else which involves Love, Light, and beauty.
