In 2018, I heard the familiar voice of a workplace narcissist belittling a colleague. Something inside me snapped—I simply couldn't endure it any longer. I packed up my desk and signed myself off sick from my corporate role.
Amidst the chaos of burnout, workplace stress from a toxic environment, and years of unresolved personal issues, I felt completely lost, clouded, and unfulfilled. What initially seemed like a severe dip in my mental health and self-esteem became a transformative spiritual awakening. By granting myself the sacred time and space to reflect, I unknowingly embarked on an incredible journey that would alter the entire trajectory of my life.
From a young age, I possessed a remarkable intuitive mind. I first sensed energy shifts at six years old when my Granny passed away. In our teens, my sister and I would read cards and began our spiritual explorations together. However, as I grew, my focus shifted to my career. I entered the corporate finance world in 1994 after a friend helped me escape the monotonous cycle of local authority work, and I found purpose in the excitement of goals, targets, and bonuses. I thrived on this energy, excelling by supporting and coaching others, revitalising struggling branches, and training teams to achieve excellence. My spiritual side was aglow with personal growth and the potential for self-actualisation, though the practice of spirituality, took a backseat, surfacing only occasionally through tarot and readings for fun.
The pace of mergers and takeovers gradually stripped the soul from the organisation—and mine, too. When redundancy came in 2008, I took a much-needed break. With young children, a demanding career, and a husband who travelled frequently, I was beyond exhausted. During this hiatus, my creative side flourished, along with frequent visits from the spirit world. Those 12 months as an entrepreneur—running an online craft and gift shop, organising kiddies' craft parties, and professional scrapbooking with my beautiful friend and temporary business partner —were joyful and illuminating. Yet, I missed being part of something larger. I thought I missed the corporate world, so in 2009 I dove back in, embarking on a new career journey with fresh educational opportunities in a new industry, and a thrilling level of busy-ness. I thrived in challenging environments, and this experience reaffirmed that I was capable of being a successful business owner, my true purpose was starting to emerge. During this period, I was introduced to the powers of the universe, which was utterly mind-blowing and life-changing, I attended seminars, brought in personal practice of journalling and gratitude, which helped me through many difficult times. 2018 not only brought me a mental health crisis, spiritual awakening, it also set me on a path of learning professional energy and creative based healing modalities, my new era of entrepreneurship . Yet, as before, when I found my soul fading in the corporate wheel, I couldn't break through the feeling of not making an authentic impact, I knew I had to leave. I did in 2021 when I brought a new self -actualised grounded energy to my own thriving Holistic Wellness business set up a few years earlier.
The 2018 break had taught me a crucial lesson—there was more to life, and I had a greater purpose. Every experience up to that point was essential to bringing me to this moment. Learning to be kind to myself was one of the greatest teachings. These days I still work with coaches for accountability and growth, I attend wellbeing events locally, and have even completed solo retreats to Bali and Spain. My commitment to my craft is unquestionable with CPD for professional memberships, hosting events and always learning, I love it - its not easy being a solo business owner but I wouldn't have it any other way. .
Now, I dedicate my life to helping beautiful souls like you break through barriers to find genuine purpose and alignment—whether as entrepreneurs, career climbers, or those embracing retirement. With my life experience, qualifications, knowledge, and practice, I’ve developed the tools to support you on your journey. Remember, there’s no one-size-fits-all solution, and I’m here to guide you every step of the way.
During my mental health crisis, I felt lost and unsure where to turn. I reached out to the employee assistance program at work, completed five counseling sessions, an eight-week mindfulness course, and learned Reiki—all of which were life-changing. I also got a personal trainer at the gym, tackling this challenge with the same determination I apply to any new goal. This time, though, the project was me. It was a chaotic journey as I navigated everything, not realizing I was also experiencing a spiritual awakening—shedding my old self while still operating from outdated patterns.
Energy healing became the turning point, guided by masters of their craft who supported me with compassion. However, it often felt like taking scattered steps—bits here and there with no cohesive plan. This left me frustrated, straining relationships, and overwhelmed as I tried to piece everything together on my own. But I now believe it had to happen this way so I could experience profound growth and develop the presence and compassion I bring to others in my professional role today.
Each new modality opened doors to fresh perspectives, more expansive living, and deeper knowledge of the human mind and energy systems—crucial to my journey and teachings. I’d love to be part of your story, whether through one or many sessions, offering the support system I lacked. If you’re interested in learning a modality, I have the tools to help you find peace with the past, illuminate a brighter future, and embrace every moment in the present.
