Catherine Baker was born in Edinburgh Scotland in 1947 and has lived in many places in Scotland, England and for the last 35 years in The Netherlands. She has been involved in Christian Ministry and has been a prayer minister, teacher, and counsellor. She has travelled to many parts of the world and been exposed to many different types of people and cultures. She has always been interested in the various aspects of relationships and personal development for herself and others. This inspired her to look at many sources where they taught more about living out of your heart, which led to her writing expressive poems in trying to connect her heart with God.
