“Growing up, I was always accused of talking too
much and all I wanted to do was teach. When I  
presented my first seminar, I remember looking up
and saying ‘So this is why You put me on earth.’ At
that moment I knew I had found my calling and that
I had a responsibility to use my God-given talent to
educate and enlighten others.”
