In September 2013 I set up in self-employment as an Inspirational Speaker/Writer/Poet. The sole purpose was to creatively help others through my own experiences with mental health, depression, addiction, recovery and well-being. Since starting the business there has been many highs and lows along the way, but I truly believe when someone finds their purpose in life they will overcome any obstacle to reach their goal. This is the reason why A Compassionate Voice has evolved into what it is today, because of my determination, drive and devotion to what I consider to be my calling. My story has caught the attention of many, however, although I am extremely grateful for the ongoing interest within the media, more importantly for me is where I am now, and how I can continue to help make a difference with the gifts I have been given. My love for animals, wildlife and nature has been with me since being a child, but since 2010 this passion has returned to me in earnest, so along with my allegiance with mental health issues, recovery and well-being, I am now also using the spoken and written word to help raise awareness to some of the countless issues of animal abuse across the world. In February 2016 I self published my first book titled There Is a Way. Going public about mental health issues, past mistakes and life errors that most people would probably choose to closet, rather than use as examples in a book to help others was a huge gamble to take, but I felt it was a venture worth the risk. A choice, which was definitely the right one to make, as a few months later the book reached No 25 in the Amazon UK’s self-help category. Due to the book’s success, on August 28th 2017 an updated version of ‘There Is a Way’ is set to hit the high-street and on-line book shops, under a new title Stripped Bare. I am also in the process of writing a follow up book titled ‘Step Outside the Box’, which will hopefully be published late 2017/early 2018. My talk packages have already been a huge success at numerous and varied functions, including annual conferences, well-being events and mental health seminars.
