    Ray Chanania bio:


    Ray is an entrepreneur, motivational speaker, and group home manager of South Asian descent from North Vancouver, Canada. His parents raised him and got divorced when he was 16, and it was a very traumatic time for him. So, he started hanging out with the wrong crowd, such as criminals and drug users. Which eventually led him to live a very wild lifestyle with drugs and the club. 


    After a lot of negative experiences, Ray, being at the end of his rope, went to rehab, into the controversial ibogaine program. Iboga is a route from Africa with strong lysogenic properties, similar to Hawassa. It was a powerful experience where he saw visions of his life leading down a dark path. As well as Urdu. But after the treatment, he was a Changed man, and his connection to Spirituality deepened. He started meditating and doing Yoga intensely. 


    He also found his love for music again and started producing. And recording hip-hop. He did the songs very well locally; he performed all over Canada and was even chosen to perform in Toronto in front of 3000 people. He also got back to theater and acting, as well as healthcare. With his savings, he decided to start a group home for troubled youth. 


    After doing that very challenging work for two years, he moved to working with adults. For the past five years, Ray has spoken at church and school fundraisers, spreading the message of recovery, success, and motivation and letting people know that change is possible because if he can do it, they can also.
