Rhonda Byrne

Not only the producer of The Secret, but she is the inspiration behind it.

Rhonda says she stumbled on what she calls "The Secret" at the end of 2004. At the time, everything in Rhonda's life had fallen apart — physically, emotionally and financially — and she was in "total despair." Then her father died suddenly, and she was worried about her grief-stricken mother. "I wept and wept and wept, and I didn't want my daughter to see me sobbing," Rhonda says.

That's when Rhonda's daughter gave her a copy of The Science of Getting Rich, a book written in 1910 by Wallace D. Wattles. "Something inside of me had me turn the pages one by one, and I can still remember my tears hitting the pages as I was reading it," Rhonda says. "It gave me a glimpse of The Secret. It was like a flame inside of my heart. And with every day since, it's just become a raging fire of wanting to share all of this with the world."

After that first discovery, Rhonda read hundreds of books, listened to hundreds of hours of audio tapes and scoured the Internet for more information. She says she traced the idea of The Secret through history — all the way from 3500 B.C. to the present day. "Since I discovered The Secret, every single moment of my entire life has changed, and I am living my life for the first time," Rhonda says.

In 1992, Hagelin attributes his unusual career path from physicist to spokesman for global human concerns to his practice of the Transcendental Meditation technique and to his studies with the founder of the technique, Maharishi Mahesh Yogi.

An inspirational speaker, and best-selling author. She claims to vocally translate blocks of thought for a group of non-physical beings who call themselves Abraham.

She brings her knowledge and inspiration of the teachings of Abraham to us in a wonderful enlightening way.

Once you understand this idea, it is enormously helpful in starting to redirect your thoughts towards producing the outcomes which you want in your life.

Esther Hicks was raised by a Mormon family in Park City, Utah. She married for the first time when she was 20 years old and had two children in that marriage. She later divorced, met her present husband Jerry Hicks in Fresno, California in 1976 and married him in 1980.
