A guide, a teacher, a deeply compassionate human, a purpose-finder and a wisdom seeker — the mysteries of the universe have captivated my soul since I was a young child.
I began my career in the corporate world. Through a beautiful series of twists and turns, I found myself in the corporate art world — a creative shift that aligned with something deeper inside me. Like many, I turned to western medicine in search of answers when my health began to wane. But when my body’s aches, pains, mood, self-esteem and daily stamina kept worsening instead of improving, a quiet persistent sense of unfulfilment loomed — like an inner knowing I could no longer ignore.
I’ve never been one to accept defeat. So, while remaining under the care of my family GP, I began exploring the world of alternative healthcare. Under the sage guidance of leading natural medicine practitioners — and many a ‘magical’ mentor (yes, you know who you are) — I steadily transformed my life, overcame ill health and healed in ways I never imagined.
Although I explored several different healing modalities, it wasn’t until I experienced holistic counselling, hypnotherapy, kinesiology and the Chinese medicine arts that I truly understood the limitless potential of the mind–body–soul connection and its profound impact on our physical health and emotional wellbeing.
These practices revealed something miraculous: they taught me that our bodies are truly extraordinary! We all have access to a deeply innate, primordial wisdom — that continually seeks to return the body to a state of healing and equilibrium. I know this, not just as a practitioner, but as someone who has lived it! Over time, as humanity evolved and focused on survival and providing for our families, this inherent knowledge was quietly forgotten — and today, it remains largely untapped.
Holistic counselling, hypnotherapy, kinesiology and Chinese medicine gave me the space I needed to shift and release buried internal conflict. Steadily, I realigned with my core values, beliefs and inner faith — and was able to reverse a chronic health condition without the need for surgery!
This healing journey allowed me to move beyond the limits of my mind. What I experienced through this work felt nothing short of extraordinary — not just physically, but at every level of my being. It was empowering, humbling and life-changing! In time, it became clear to me: our greatest challenges are also our greatest teachers.
My curiosity deepened. My thirst to understand — to explore what lies beneath the surface — led me to study the very holistic healing modalities that had once saved me.
Today, it’s my greatest honour to walk beside others as they remember their own power, reconnect with their inner healer and reclaim a life that feels balanced and whole again.
My Driving Passion
🍃My driving passion is to reach as many people as possible — to share the same awareness and transformation that changed my life from the inside out.
Without doubt, I know this to be true:
+Good health, joy, trust, enthusiasm and love for life are not luxuries — they are the natural expression of our true, innate being.
+Emotions are energy. Energy cannot be destroyed — only transmuted. When stress, fear, anxiety or trauma begin to surface, it is simply energy asking to be felt, acknowledged and transformed. This is not a breakdown — it’s a breakthrough. The body is asking to shift into a more regulated, life-giving state — one that welcomes vitality, freedom and joy. This is the gateway to deep peace, profound healing and robust emotional wellbeing.
+Community, passion and purpose matter. Our wellbeing flourishes when we feel connected — to community, to purpose and to something meaningful.
When we’re guided by awareness, fuelled by knowledge and anchored in a sense of belonging — healing becomes not just possible, but inevitable.
If this resonates with something stirring inside you, I invite you to explore the therapies, tools and nurturing environment I’ve created to support your own journey back to balance, calm, clarity, confidence, resilience and a deeper sense of well-being.

🍃That powerful thirst also led me to question the brain — and the role it plays in all of this. I began investigating and dove deep into the latest research on neuroscience, neuroplasticity, epigenetics and any information I could lay my hands on around heart–brain coherence and the profound role it plays in deep transformational healing. Since then, I’ve completed the following courses…
—Neuroscience + Neuroplasticity: ‘How to Rewire Your Brain’
—The Focus and Flow State: a Comprehensive Brain Guide
—Heart-Brain Coherence
—Neuroscience for Parents: How to Raise Amazing Kids

Today, evidence really is the loudest voice. And the latest research in neuroscience, epigenetics and neuroplasticity beautifully aligns with the foundations of kinesiology, hypnotherapy, Chinese medicine, holistic counselling and mind-body coaching.
We all have access to a powerful, innate intelligence — one that continually seeks to return the body to a state of healing and equilibrium. I know this, not just as a practitioner, but as someone who has lived it.
