by Karlene Rickard (Author)
Karlene began her career as a science teacher and later got involved in community work and counselling. She has worked extensively as a parent facilitator, trainer and counsellor in the UK, USA, Jamaica, Grenada and Trinidad for over 15 years.
Her powerful 'Empowerment for Parents' parenting programme is credited with changing lives and creating happier families. She was presented with the Millennium Award for it in 1999 and for her work with African Caribbean families.
Karlene's autobiography 'He Speaks' has been widely read and has spread her message that positive relationships, genuine love and being attuned to the voice of God is essential to building well-balanced adults. She has achieved all of this despite the challenge of living with Multiple Sclerosis.
In this book, Karlene shares not only her experiences of living with MS for 33 years, but also the strategies she has employed on her journey to conquer the limitations of the condition. This has equipped her to return to her mission of supporting families.
