Jes Kerzen, author of A Mind Beyond Words: My Decades of Discovery with an Extraordinary Guide, holds a postgraduate degree and has worked in a huge variety of roles in many educational settings. A passionate advocate for neurodiverse students, particularly those with autistic spectrum perception and communication challenges, she found that wherever she worked, these were the children who so often appeared in her life and enriched it greatly.

An encounter with one small boy, however, set her on a journey of discovery that would completely change her life's trajectory. From this child and his classmates, Jes learned that there were ways of communicating and perceiving she had never dreamed of. She has consequently spent many years researching telepathy, remote viewing and other psychic abilities, along with the spiritual insights they can sometimes lead to.

Now retired and living in Somerset, England, Jes devotes much of her time to working with Asher, her former pupil, continuing to learn from him and writing about their work together.Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices
