]]> Ep. 10 - India Hicks Discusses Philanthropy, Her Latest Book, Lockdown Realizations and Her Decision to Marry After 25 Years! Gavin McLeod-Valentine 00:58:11 In this week’s episode I talk with international tastemaker, entrepreneur and philanthropist, India Hicks. Raised in England, India grew up within extraordinary circumstances. Her own father, David Hicks, was an icon in Interior Design, creating a kaleidoscope of color with his signature geometric prints. India’s mother, The Lady Pamela Mountbatten, is an extraordinary woman herself, who served as both bridesmaid and Lady-in-Waiting to Her Majesty, The Queen. In 1981, at the request of her godfather, His Royal Highness, The Prince of Wales, India appeared in front of a television audience of over 1 billion people, in her role as bridesmaid to then Lady Diana Spencer. For the past twenty-five years India has lived a life on her own terms, choosing to live and raise her five children with her partner, David on the tiny Harbour Island, often described as the ‘crown jewel’ of the Bahamas. Just like her father, India is a decidedly creative person and has produced successful partnerships and business ventures in both interior and product design and written several design-focused books on her island life and British heritage. In my former life as a luxury publicist I had the great fortune of working with India when she launched an eponymous lifestyle brand six years ago, offering artisanal collections that also provided business opportunities to other women looking to run their own business on their terms and in their own time. In today’s episode we discuss the lessons learned in building and subsequently closing that business, the personal impact of life in lockdown, her decision to marry her partner after 25 years and touch on family life, vaccinations, her newest book, “An Entertaining Story,” and most importantly India’s dedicated work with The Global Empowerment Mission and Harbour Island Food Bank. For Royalty lovers we even touch on the Netflix show, ‘The Crown,’ who’s fourth season portrayed the shocking and traumatic assassination of India’s grandfather, Earl Mountbatten of Burma at the hands of the I.R.A. I hope you enjoy this episode as much as I did making it. In this week’s episode I talk with international tastemaker, entrepreneur and philanthropist, India Hicks.

Since I was 11 years old, Melanie Dyer has been my best-friend and one of the most important people in my life.  

Having found her soul-mate,  her husband Luke, Melanie set about the process of starting a family. After what appeared to have been an easy pregnancy, and as her due date was approaching, she began to feel that something wasn't quite right.

Unable to feel her baby moving she raced to the hospital, resulting in a traumatic birth for both mother and child.  Melanie would soon learn that her son Matthew has been starved from oxygen, due to  the umbilical cord being wrapped around his neck twice. 

After being sent home with no instructions or guidance, Melanie and Luke were left to watch and worry as their child appeared significantly  delayed in his development and displaying  a slew of physical and behavioral abnormalities. 

Knowing that something was very wrong and with no clear guidance from the medical professionals, Melanie and Luke started their own research quest to try and understand what was going with their son.  It wasn't until discovering a video on YouTube that everything became clear to them. 

In today's episode we discuss Melanie's  birth experience, Matthew's subsequent diagnoses and the reality of raising a child with special needs.
