Who is Wallace Huey, the co-developer of Trans4mind and director of the Trans4mind Network?Wallace entered the architecture profession in 1983, working in the profession until he turned 30 years of age. He then set up a small management training business in Belfast, Northern Ireland, where he lived. Success eluded him, because he experienced two mental breakdowns due to the resurfacing of an illness he first experienced when 23.
There followed a decade of extreme mental torment from which he emerged a transformed human being. After working for a period for an international charity as a volunteer, he went back to the world of management, this time as a self-employed consultant. In 2000, after a profound spiritual awakening, he wrote his book, Unfold Your Wings and Watch Life Take Off, a poetic manual that takes the hand of the reader and gently guides them toward a powerful dependency on inner guidance. While writing the book he courted and married his soul mate Carolyn and moved to Dublin, where he now lives. In Dublin Wallace worked as a Life Coach, but realized he had insufficient energy to carry on with his public speaking engagements and to coach face to face, due to his mental condition. Feeling at a dead end, Wallace turned within for guidance and received powerful inspiration to work as a Heart to Heart coach on an Internet magazine, being immediately guided toward Peter Shepherd and the Cultivate Life! emagazine.
Peter accepted Wallace's offer to coach on Cultivate Life! straight away and, after a number of months, Wallace and Peter began to develop the Heart to Heart service and the Trans4mind website together. Today Wallace partners Peter on development work for the whole Trans4mind site and its future plans; and in particular he manages the Trans4mind Network of Service Providers. Also he is responsible for developing two new websites, the first to train leaders of businesses and organizations in personal development and the second to cater for the personal development needs of teenagers. These two new websites will be created in English initially and then be rolled out on our developing international network, to every language and region on earth.
If you would like to assist with the development of either of these two new websites contact Wallace at the link below. You can find out more about Wallace by reading his online and paperback book at Unfold Your Wings and Watch Life Take Off.
What is the source of Wallace's inspiration?
Wallace is powerfully inspired to help others - a result of his compassion engendered by his own time of trial, the 10 years he spent experiencing mental anguish. His inspiration comes from within, delivered through inner guidance. At the core of his understanding is his heart to heart relationship with his spiritual mentor in India, the Avatar, Sai Baba. If you would like to know more about Wallace's life experiences and learn what led to his passion for coaching, you can read his book, Unfold Your Wings and Watch Life Take Off, or you can read the articles he wrote for Cultivate Life! about his relationship with his spiritual teacher - Love in Action and Expansion is Life, is Love.
Wallace has a six-fold mission:
- To provide the means for a vast untapped resource, the wisdom and compassion of ordinary men and women, to be offered to people facing life challenges.
- To offer personal development services which have love as their only source of inspiration.
- To express this freely offered love and wisdom in the form of innovative self-empowerment services, which stand as a landmark for personal development on the Internet.
- By these three means, to bring the personal into personal development on the Internet.
- To focus the above 4 points in developing 3 website platforms in the English language, each one meeting the specific personal development needs of...
- men and women
- business leaders
- teenagers
- Not to rest until, along with Peter Shepherd, he has brought personal development based on love, to these three groups in every region of the world, thus fulfilling the Trans4mind mission - Harnessing the full potential of the Internet to awaken the consciousness of humanity.
Who is Nicole Shepherd, the developer of Trans4mind in French?
Nicole has been director of centers for leisure and vacation for the last 17 years and has recently started devoting her energies to teaching personal development directly to young people and to develop the Trans4mind.fr site. As an educator she believes that children need to learn much more than they are currently taught in school: how to direct their own learning, how to understand and best use their emotions, and to be able to communicate with confidence and empathy.
10 years ago she met Peter Shepherd as a student on his Insight Project course of spiritual development and soon discovered they share the same ideals and values. Indeed they share an unconditional love that has enlightened both of their lives. Peter moved to France and they married in 2003.
Now that Nicole is free to work more on the Trans4mind site, expect to see the French version advance rapidly. In addition, Nicole will be contributing her experience and expertise in the fields of education, parenting and relationships in the form of articles and eBooks, both in English and French. You can find out more about Nicole on the French website, Trans4mind.fr and on her Bio page.
Who is Peter Shepherd, the founder and managing director of Trans4mind?
Peter Shepherd has earnestly travelled the path of personal growth all his life. As a child he studied Buddhism and found there a validation of each individual as a spark of the universal consciousness. There were meditative methods to help the person attain a higher level of that consciousness for themselves. However, he decided to both stay clear of organized religions and also to look for better ways of expanding consciousness that do not take lifetimes to achieve their goal.
He realized that inner gnosis - intuitive knowledge of spiritual truth - was the way to go, since fundamental truths are simple and graspable when we look inside to our intuitive understanding. What remained complex was the structure of mind, and the million and one ways that mind sneaks in to obscure or corrupt our natural insight.
Thus began a quest to understand the mind and the spirit and to find out how to master these things. He received training in Rational-Emotive psychology but also studied the 'transpersonal' dimension of consciousness, that which is beyond the Ego personality, as pioneered by Assagioli, Grof and others. He found these two divergent branches of psychology only really formed the full picture when combined as one. The everyday, rational and behavioral understandings of psychology were just as important as the more esoteric understandings to do with consciousness, and in fact each needed the other to provide a true and holistic picture of things.
He wrote the book Transforming the Mind which summarized his knowledge to date, and further developed the most effective methods he'd found to create a set of home study courses, accessible and beneficial to all. Moving to France, he began running the web site full time, to reach all those people who are looking for the same things he had searched so long for - and to be of service in the most valuable way he knew how.
As individuals, our being has several components: consciousness; mental processes; emotions; and the physical. One depends on the others. Even the layers of our brain - the cortex, limbic system and primitive/reptilian - correspond to our head, heart and gut. Each can do nothing much on its own.
We function in the world according to our programming. This software is in our minds and the hardware is our brain and nervous system. We are largely unaware that we can actually change this programming, switch one program for another, or actually to rise above the level of mind and write new programs for ourselves as the meta-programmer. We can do this as individuals (see The Insight Project) and we can do this as humanity; it is our God-like spiritual nature. But first we have to come to terms with reality and point ourselves in the right direction… Start a New Life! is the home-study course Peter has developed for that purpose.
Peter's goal in life has been to break free of the consensus trance, to find instead his own truth and to help others find their own truth also. He declares his life purpose to be: "To contribute and maintain the services needed to help human beings consciously evolve toward a more loving, peaceful and just world."
This requires tools. Peter comments: "Because we are each such different individuals, with personal goals and at different stages on our various paths, we at Trans4mind have found there is no singular tool for transformation, there are many, and we've tried to select the very best ones for our web site. We trust that you will benefit immensely."

As a psychotherapist, Maurice's feeling-based approach to grief recovery is the culmination of over 25 years of clinical practice that involved thousands of clients, hundreds of whom were dealing with Grief and Loss.

In terms of spiritual and personal growth, motivation, confidence building and prosperity creation, Dr Turmel has experienced and applied many of the personal development practices and programs available since the early 70's. From these experiences, and his professional training, he has evolved a unique approach to spiritual and personal development which is described in the Conscious Evolution section at Trans4mind.
Today we are hearing more about Spiritual and Personal Growth, to address such questions as: Who am I? and Why am I? It is time, he believes, for the next stage of our Evolution - The Activation of "Self and Soul" within a Purpose Driven Life. This is Conscious Evolution as he defines it, and has been the substance of his Life's Work for the past 40 years.
With his vast experience and close affinity with the role of Lightworker in today's world, Maurice is now also providing a great new service at Trans4mind: Coaching for Lightworkers. Maurice coaches Lightworkers (those who have a mission to bring Light to the world) to be grounded in the reality of their humanness, to deal with human issues (e.g. dysfunctional family, chilhood abuse, sexual abuse, feelings of abandonment, defenses and addictions, etc.) so they can truly become clear and deliver the gifts they brought into this world. You can send your own question to Maurice, which he will answer and publish his coaching response for other readers to benefit from.

The Trans4mind Vision and the Trans4mind Network
Trans4mind stands as a landmark in the world of personal development, because it is being devised, presented and maintained by the power of love. Trans4mind intends to harness the limitless power of the Internet, freely and in all the main world languages, offering personal development to every man, woman and young person that is specific to their life challenges. Furthermore, where a person needs in-depth help and support, Trans4mind will introduce him/her to the very best paid-for products and services.
Trans4mind.net is an international network of websites in different languages that co-operate to deliver the Trans4mind vision and which use the Trans4mind brand and system of presentation.
In the Network each Trans4mind website is produced and managed by a Service Provider, working alone or when possible supported by a community of authors, writers, poets, musicians, photographers, educationalists, coaches, counselors, psychotherapists, technicians, and others, whose work is co-ordinated by the Service Provider. This community of people work together, to deliver personal development products and services, created with extraordinary care, brought to the viewer using the Trans4mind brand and system.
The original Trans4mind site, Trans4mind.com, was founded by Peter Shepherd (psychologist) in 1998 and supported by Nicole his wife (educationalist) and later joined by Wallace Huey (life coach) - together they have created the Trans4mind vision, brand, system, and network. Peter and Nicole live in France. Nicole has recently established the French version of Trans4mind: Trans4mind.fr. Wallace Huey lives in Ireland and he is Director of the Trans4mind Network.
We anticipate new Trans4mind Partner Websites in the Trans4mind Network. We currently reach English, Spanish and French speakers and we have sites in preparation for these languages: German, Hungarian, Arabic, Hindi, Italian, Kiswahili, and both simplified and traditional Chinese. Each will be announced on the Trans4mind Network home page, when they are ready to begin offering services.
