The Speaking Club: Mastering the Art of Public Speaking Tips for Good Health and Tackling Taboo Subjects in Your Talks – 079
Katherine Brooke-Mackenzie helps people feel well again using alternative therapies, but particularly colon-hydrotherapy. She has spent a large part of the last 15 years happily taking people’s crap. Based on what she has seen she believes that many of us are living with discomfort, pain and shame because we don’t feel like we can talk about what’s wrong…and she is on a mission to change that.
