Highly Functional Females Podcast

Louise is a mum to two girls and has been a Chiropractor for twenty years. Newly wed, she moved out to the Caribbean where she set up the first practice on island as well as experiencing great adventures commuting by boat! Knowing there was more, Louise travelled to the nearby US to further her Chiropractic work and to explore our powerful mind/body connection. On return to the UK, she set up her own practice in Berkshire where this work revolutionised how she practiced and she witnessed the power of working with the mind, specifically our beliefs, not only the physical body. Having explored Bruce Lipton’s research in epigenetics alongside Joe Dispenza’s findings from the fields of neuroscience and quantum physics, the discovery of PSYCH-K® for Louise was the missing piece (and peace) in her life. A beautiful methodology that embraces science and spirituality together to bring about change in a simple and easy way for those that are inspired to create positive change in their lives. As a result of her own powerful personal journey with PSYCH-K® facilitator, Louise has been working for the last five years with clients, supporting them to quickly and easily reprogram their subconscious mind to transform their life and their health.

Andrea’s journey into Personal Development as a Transformational Coach started years ago following ‘burn out’ from practising as a Barrister in a busy UK based practice specialising in Employment Law.  She was listed in the Legal 500 and had been appointed Treasury Counsel, which she was balancing with having 3 young children and a husband who was also working full time. Sound somewhat familiar?  Is it a wonder we burn out? Join me on this podcast as I interview Andrea about her journey away from a career she dreamed of for so long, to what finally made her take a courageous leap into the world of personal development.  Are you feeling a need for change or a more purposeful direction? Join me on this podcast and with a powerful and inspirational woman.
