From Diplomat to Yogi: A Jamaican Woman’s Life in Bali

Meet Nadine McNeil.

Though Jamaican by birth, this Universal Empress is a Personal Development and Transformation Coach, Workshop Facilitator, Writer & Yoga Teacher. As stated in her EPK, she discovered yoga while working with the United Nations, where she began practicing regularly to find balance and respite from the job’s emotional and physical demands.

During her 22 years with the UN, her assignments included stints in Sudan, Iraq, Kuwait, and in 2004, she served as head logistics specialist for UNICEF in response to Indonesia’s tsunami.

After the 2010 earthquake in Haiti, Nadine led Global Volunteer Network initiatives in the country and has also worked in the Netherlands with the organization for the Prohibition of Chemical Weapons. These experiences have rooted her devotion to activism, which she threads through all her yoga and transformational work.
