Patricia Whyte was recently interviewed by TheCelebrity.Online Magazine and below is the Q&A session we had with Ms. Patricia.
How do you introduce yourself?
Patricia Whyte: My name is Patricia Whyte, I am a Global Success, Abundance & Feng Shui Coach trained personally with celebrity and Feng Shui Master Marie Diamond of the movie, The Secret. I specialize in the law of attraction, prosperity coaching, and an international bestselling author with #1 Best Selling Globally, “Global Conscious Entrepreneurs”, professional speaker, Feng Shui based practitioner, Tai Chi, Qi Gong, Meditation teacher and Feng Shui Coach.
How was your transition from childhood to adulthood and what are the bad and good things you remember?
Patricia Whyte: Those of us who have had the greatest amount of challenges are given the greatest amount of opportunity to help our family, friends and community to heal their life. I have experienced pain in my childhood transitioning into adulthood of my life. I will share with you growing up on a farm with various types of animals gave me the understanding that animals are my best friends, they helped me to transition out of my childhood and they continue to be my best friends.
One of my challenges was not being a good student in school. It is not that I didn’t try; I tried so hard, to no avail! When it came to transitioning to higher education, College/University, we take a test (the SAT) and from that test we apply using our score. I took this test two maybe three times and it wasn’t even average. I applied to my local University, The University of South Carolina (USC), and by a miracle I was accepted…not because of my SAT score but because of my everyday work in school and the classes I attended, they could see I was a hard worker. I did attend USC in a special program because of this and then transitioned into the Retail program and graduated with a Bachelor of Science Degree in Fashion Merchandising/Retail.
It wasn’t until I had taken a class in psychology later in my retail career that I found out I was dyslexic. This helped me understand so much why I had challenges in school with reading, studying and spelling words. After learning this I went looking for information on dyslexia and made great progress as I did go back to school a couple of years later and achieved my Homeopathic Degree. Many, many years after that when I was certifying in hypnosis my teacher, Laura Jane Nash, hypnotized me out of dyslexia which I feel has helped me greatly to spell efficiently and to become an author.
Struggle – What hardships have you gone through in life?
Patricia Whyte: Dyslexia was a hardship which affected my childhood, young & adulthood. The thing about dyslexia is that it psychologically put me into a place that made me feel less than others and therefore that line of thinking/feeling fed into all my relationships. The feeling ‘less than’ mentality attracted to me more of the ‘less than’ experiences in my relationships including my former abusive marriage. Everyone else was far more important than me in my mind up until I went through a huge transformation. I had to dig deep inside of myself to feel the pain of what being abused felt like, recognize that I didn’t want to feel that feeling any longer and say “No” to then find within myself what I did want to then make different choices that did feel good.
What do people usually not know about you?
Patricia Whyte: Everything I have shared here about my childhood, young and adult life very few people know about me. Even my mother just learned a few months ago that I had dyslexia.
What sets you apart from your competitors in the industry and in life?
Patricia Whyte: Experiencing lifelong challenges like a learning disability and abuse automatically sets you apart especially if you transform it all and become successful. I am successful not in spite of but because of the challenges. Those challenges taught me or better yet trained me to find relief/healing for the pain I was experiencing. I am like an Olympic champion who has trained 12 hrs every day for all my life and as a result I am able to share what I learned to help others find relief/healing to become successful and abundant. Tenacious doesn’t even begin to describe me as an entrepreneur, I am more than tenacious.
What are your upcoming major events?
Patricia Whyte: I am so excited to share my #1 Global Bestselling Book, “Global Conscious Entrepreneurs” that was launched a couple of weeks ago on Amazon March 21st. It is still available if you want to purchase it. Together 49 of us authors share our stories about how we are global conscious entrepreneurs and how we arrived to help change our world. I do share how I came to find my power in my chapter and I hope that you receive something great when you read it.
What are your food preferences and body measurements?
Patricia Whyte: I enjoy a vegan diet in my food preferences. I am a petite 5’2 and although I am in my mid fifties many people tell me I look 40 as I practice and teach tai chi, qigong and meditation for the last 12 yrs.
Your love life, relationships and family?
Patricia Whyte: My relationships personally and in my family are the best they have ever been in my life. I am beyond grateful for this gift.
What expert advice would you like to give?
Patricia Whyte:
- Ask for help & Act on what is offered.
- Know what you feel & What you want to become successful.

Be as tenacious as an Olympic champion to find the answers you seek.
