During her corporate ascension, Sheila had an awakening.
At the age of 38, Sheila experienced her own life-changing sequence of events. She fell into a serious depression, triggered by a relationship breakup and breakdown at work after years of striving for perfection. Everything in her life had to crumble to make way for a new life. During this time, she started speaking and connected to the ‘other side,’ being deceased souls. Sheila is a rare individual who combines her spiritual wisdom with her skills and experience from the executive-level corporate world.
She has been featured in the media sharing her insights and strategies for an empowering and courageous successful life from Thrive Global, Sydney Morning Herald, Body + Soul, CEO World Magazine, New Idea, Women’s Agenda, CFO Australia, just to name a few.
