Emma Slade (Ani Pema Deki), Buddhist Nun, inspirational speaker, transformational coach & charity founder.
A deep-seated desire to enquire into the deeper aspects of humanity arose following a life-changing trip to Jakarta, where she was held hostage at gunpoint. She resigned from her financial career and explored yoga and meditation and methods of wellbeing with the ultimate aim of turning a traumatic episode into wisdom and conditions for thriving.
Emma is the first and only Western woman to be ordained in the Himalayan Kingdom of Bhutan as a Buddhist nun.
In 2015 Emma founded and became CEO of the registered UK charity, Opening Your Heart to Bhutan, to help special needs children in Bhutan.
In 2017 Emma was given the Point of Light award by the UK Prime Minister in recognition of her exceptional volunteering.
