‘Mummy’ to my tiny human
Ambassador for behaviour change, sobriety, deep rest, & mindfulness
For over 20 years I have worked as a coach, trainer and teacher. In educational senior leadership, I handled the stresses of staff, students and parents, often at the sacrifice of my own wellbeing. I spent (too) many years of my life on autopilot, exhausted, run-down, feeling trapped by the never-ending to-do lists and back-to-back meetings.
As a training consultant in leadership, negotiation, and behavioural change working with companies around the world, I am well-accustomed to the pressure and demands that corporate life brings.
I handled this pressure with an evening drink or two to ‘take the edge off the day’. It was my treat, my relief, my anaesthetic. I’d see-saw between working hard on becoming the best version of myself and then sabotaging it all when I opened a bottle of wine. Rinse and repeat. It’s exhausting just thinking about it!
Despite my dedication to yoga, meditation and mindfulness, and my love of all things wellness-related, I didn’t truly live a happy and present life until I made changes to my habits to become the best version of me. Living alcohol free, breaking habits that were holding me back, and redefining what I want from life, changed everything. And everything in life got better.
I wasn’t just coping with the day-to-day pace of life anymore – there was a beautiful clarity that enabled me to ‘thrive’. I rediscovered the stillness and strength that was already and always within me. I felt genuinely happy and discovered a deeper sense of purpose, appreciation, and gratitude for life… in all its complexity and messiness.
With over 20 years’ experience of neuroscience-backed methods, as an accredited coach in behaviour change, deep rest, mindfulness and meditation, I know what works and I can’t wait to share it with you.
