My Journey...🌱
Well...where to start!..My 'rollercoaster' life as a mum, wife, daughter, sibling, owner of a rescue dog, and someone self-managing a chronic illness (hEDS) has profoundly shaped my empathetic and intuitive approach to my world ...and all those people around me (that 'ripple' effect).
I’ve faced obstacles full on (with that 'go girl' attitude) and overcome significant life, work & home challenges... including family bereavements, illness, and difficult personal adversities, which have deepened my inner strength and determination (so I get it...it's tough out there...but there is always a solution!)
I even embraced my dyslexic inner critic recently and co-authored a book about my journey ...Look it up; 'Daring To Be Visible...It's raw!
O'yeah... and along the way, I've brought a wealth of professional expertise, including an extensive background as a senior nurse, leadership skills, mindfulness practice, NLP techniques, learning how nature is a great healer... and fabulous resources in my 'tool box' to improve the wellbeing, performance and work-life balance for my clients... and all those around them (remember that 'ripple' effect!)
Take a look at what my services can do for you... Can't wait to meet you!
