I am a doctor, a speaker, an author, a consultant, an entertainer, a coach, a vocalist, a workshop facilitator and an actor. What do all these labels mean?
I am deeply committed to the pursuit of authenticity, in my own life and in the lives of others. People don’t always understand why a doctor would want to work in entertainment, or why a singer would want to write books to help others achieve authenticity. This is who I am, and I am simply honouring all the aspects of my true self. My knowledge is grounded in this direct experience of an authentic life - with all its joy, fulfillment, challenge and risk - and I use this experience, fortified by intuitive understanding and academic learning, to help others realise their full potential.
Everything I do is underscored by this purpose. Whether sung, spoken or written, the message is the key, and it is a constant invitation to discover and fulfil your true self, and to express yourself authentically through the practice of your God-given gifts and talents.
I first received my invitation when I was a medical student and had the privilege of spending time with patients in palliative care wards. As they prepared themselves for death, what mattered most to these people was not the traditional measures of success: material possessions, promotions, popular recognition or approval. Regardless of their background or financial success, their most urgent need was the knowledge that they were truly known by someone, and that they had been true to themselves. Most importantly, they listened, some for the first time, to the gentle whispers of their intuitive voice.
At that moment I asked myself, “How can we live in such a way that these final moments are peaceful and happy?” I listened to what my heart was telling me and knew that the answer was to live an authentic life, and in this way contribute to something greater than ourselves. What I have learned on my journey Life works when we listen to our true voice. Learning to listen to our intuition (rather than our false voices) is paramount to any true success. My life experiences have been an exercise in applied faith, humility, wisdom, courage, and love.
When we ask, we receive. When we receive we must act. We must be grateful for the resources God provides, and for the people with whom we are fortunate to share our journey.
