“My consultant was compassionate and very knowledgeable on the invisible illness I am dealing with; Lyme disease, chronic fatigue and Hashimotto. I feel blessed I could gain all this access from my home as I was too weak to travel. I am already feeling the benefits from the regime I was given by CCH Live. Very important. I have been ill for 34 years and there is so much information out there that it gets confusing. Great to have someone I can trust at long last.”

I am so grateful to CCHlive – I feel everyone could benefit from their expertise.”

“Jacqueline Harvey has a spiritual aura that radiates around her, infectiously enlivening all those in her presence. Her naturally calming benevolence defies her fun-loving vivacious character though this bubbles up in the form of joyous laughter at the slightest provocation. Her great gift is the insightful sense of wellness she inspires and her advice is always worth listening to.”
“My mental health was really important. With 50 people involved in the project, the bigger it got the more pressures emerged – it was becoming really stressful and overwhelming. Jacqueline helped me to cope with organising something on such a massive scale.”
“My eating habits were really bad and made worst by a very stressful work situation – I was being bullied by my boss. Jacqui helped me through this by working on my body and the self-doubt that raged in my mind. Eventually, I had the strength and courage to deal with the situation legally and I can’t tell you how much I appreciated her skills and care.”
“A really enjoyable day, interesting topics and knowledgeable speakers. Well put together event. Nice, quiet hotel with plenty of space and not too far from local transport. Well done Jacqui!”
“I thoroughly enjoyed this fantastic event. It was inspiring, thought-provoking, and illuminating. It happened at just the right time in my year – coming into winter when I’m slowing down and being more reflective, thinking about what I want to achieve next year and how to go about it.”
“Such a great way to ease into space of events after long months of lockdown. Jacqueline is a true professional when it comes to hosting events. She made all the speakers and guests feel comfortable and included. Great content too, lots of interesting information and I loved that it was done in the interview style as it made speakers more relaxed and also to the point.”
