Kelly is a bilingual author,therapist, storyteller, public speaker and gifted musician. He is also a born teacher, with a commanding, yet gracious presence, who helps people to see the joy and potential in their lives, both professionally and personally. His audiences have acclaimed him as a compassionate healer, a creative, insightful and wise man who is a lot of fun ...
His first book, "Loss of Soul: Burnout", which captured the story of Kelly's own experience with failing to look after oneself, was first published in 1995 and reprinted by popular demand in 1997 ...
He uses his piano and entertaining skills to get audiences singing along with him, tapping their feet and providing a much-needed respite from the daily grind. His audiences are touched by his special insight as he shines a different coloured light on life ...
Kelly has traveled extensively, spreading his message of balance, optimism and joy to business professionals, health care providers, clergy, teachers and just plain folks who need some inspiration.
