My journey

My early life was challenging. I experienced addiction and heroin use. I was arrested in China and served time in prison. I take full responsibility for this period. It became a turning point in my life.

After my release, I returned to Scotland. I studied counselling, life coaching, and autism. This began a new path of purpose and service.

Global experience

I spent eight years in India. I worked with charities and centres across India, Nepal, and Sri Lanka. During this time, I developed simple support systems for families.

I also wrote three books for parents in India. These are now combined into one accessible ebook.

Qualifications and training

I hold a diploma in counselling. I completed postgraduate autism studies. I trained in life coaching and clinical hypnotherapy. My work is grounded in both knowledge and lived experience.

Stewart’s healing journey

I have faced significant health challenges. These include stage 3 bowel cancer, thyroid cancer, and a heart attack. I have also experienced the loss of my daughter.

Through these experiences, I made deep lifestyle changes. I lost 40kg and rebuilt my health. This journey continues to shape my work and perspective.
