Have you ever wondered how to embrace both light and darkness in life, whether professional or personally?

In a podcast episode for ‘The Good Listening Show’ I recorded with I share my journey of faith and resilience on the 15th anniversary of my late father’s death. My story takes you on a journey through the challenges of living with bipolar disorder, the influence of my guardian angel, Christina Bruns, and departure from the West Midlands.

My vision of ‘shining light into the dark places of the world’ is intriguing as it is inspiring. I share my dream of creating a global social enterprise organisation called ‘LIGHT, dedicated to illuminating the world’s darkest corners.

Tune in to hear my story of resilience, purpose, and the human spirit. This isn’t just another podcast episode; it’s an invitation to explore a life lived in light and darkness.
