My Journey

from light to darkness, then light again; lessons in life from one awakened in our midst…

early doors...

I was born in Sefton Park, Liverpool in the sixties, a hard-working, multicultural sea port, bursting with international shipping.
From its midst grew a huge music scene led by The Beatles, along with comedians galore and two fiercely rivalled football teams; for a decade or so, it was the place to be.

However, as the city crested its wave and drifted into massive industrial decline, I grew out of childhood and fell into major problems of my own.

breaking free...

Custodial sentences came and went, I was as lost as a man can be. But when I found the solution that set me free, it completely blew me away.

The key was to realise that my ‘True Inner Self’ was trapped inside a false, outer personality that I’d constructed since childhood; a persona that was killing me.

Realisation of the True, caused the False to crumble and fall.

Almost 40 years later, I’m still free. 

it's within you...

Public speaking came as a surprise, and more especially the impact. In fact, I’d describe myself as an ‘Impact Speaker.’

The ground of people’s hearts is often hard and unyielding, therefore a jolt is often needed to break them free.

If you want to make a difference in this world, it starts with you.

Welcome aboard.
