As a Laughter Ambassador and a healer I have always been happy and joyous. However we theripest too got thru certain situations in life and that's the time you need a friend and an other expert to support and help you to bounce back. I was recovering from Covid and had lost a friend at the same time. This was when I and Vivek connected after a very long time. I shared what I was going thru and he immediately helped. In absolute gratitude to him for his session which helped me to bounce back.
