“Kiss of the Whale” Book presentation, Celebration & Signing Event

Join us for a long-anticipated event as we celebrate the release of “Kiss of the Whale,” a deeply personal and transformative memoir by international bestselling author, psychotherapist, scholar, and spiritual advisor, Vesta Chandler.

Vesta’s remarkable journey as a healer and world traveler began in 2010, when she was forced to flee her home country amidst a harrowing court battle over child custody and the pain of severe parental alienation. Armed with only a one-way ticket, she embarked on a five-year odyssey across Vietnam, Thailand, India, the Middle East, and Europe. This journey, fraught with challenges and profound discoveries, led to extraordinary personal and professional transformations.

In “Kiss of the Whale,” Vesta chronicles her encounters with shamans, sages, and royalty, as well as her participation in sacred ceremonies and pilgrimages. The book is a vivid tapestry of experiences, including receiving a sacred tattoo in a Thai monastery, managing a nightclub in Mumbai, opening a Russian restaurant in Chennai, and living in remote Himalayan villages. Each chapter reveals a new layer of her quest for healing and understanding, all while reflecting her unwavering love for her kidnapped daughter through intimate letters penned throughout her travels.

Vesta’s notes, meticulously taken during her journey, were woven into this compelling book in 2018. “Kiss of the Whale” is a story of healing, reconnection, and self-empowerment, written during a time of great personal and global change. It is a book for anyone who seeks depth and resonates with the profound emotions that accompany such a journey.

Now available in English, “Kiss of the Whale” invites readers to connect with the wisdom within themselves. Vesta is thrilled to share this special moment with you, offering a unique opportunity to explore her world through storytelling, visuals, and heartfelt connections.
