Born in South Africa, raised in Zambia, an adventurer across 35 countries to date. Birthing Wholly Aligned in 2012, she stepped away from a successful career in banking, to fully embrace the wonderous world of health and healing.

Leaving London in Summer 2022, she now lives in Ramsgate, the place where the ravens fly, with the swell of the vast salty seas nearby.

Vivien. 25 year friendship through dialysis, transplants, pregnancy, love and laughter
Episode 3 in the series 'Integrating a holistic approach to kidneys'.
Ciara talks to one of her closest friends Vivien, who has a working transplant for over 25 years now. Ciara and Vivien met in the St Helier dialysis unit when they were both young students at different universities. And over 25 years later, they remain firm friends.
Through the rollercoasters of their own unique journey with their kidney transplants, their friendship has been a solid through line of soulful solace, honest conversation, adventures, true kinship to rely on through highs and lows. What a gift to have these gems in our lives.
A truly beautiful conversation where the pulse of deep friendship shines through.
