My Story - Personal
Ive always been a big Feeler and Seer since I was a little girl, back then growing up it felt like a curse - my world was intense, loud, often scary and painfully amplified because I had to hide and suppress my gifts, but now I know it was the start of my calling and the wounds from my childhood became my greatest source of wisdom.
For many years this gift was tamed, feeling ‘too much’ it was kept in the shadows, through owning a business, travelling, working in corporate and living an extravagant yet half-life I continued to push down my uniqueness. I felt like a hologram, yearning for something to fill the void, but that void was the dis-connection from my true-self.
Back in my early 20’s I discovered yoga which anchored my curiosity to a multitude of modalities — I studied, trained and obsessed over many forms along side my ‘normal’ London life until I was guided by one of my most defining moments — Motherhood, it began with a gut-wrenchingly painful loss but was then followed by a beautiful gift, this in-turn cracked open my heart and gave me the courage and clarity to leap into some huge changes.
When I look back it was very confronting, not easy or pretty yet in the mess it felt like HOME. As the fire in my belly began to burn bright, I immersed in to what I call - the sacred Heart and Art of Being Human and uncovered my souls wisdom through the embodiment of my human experiences.
The deepest work began when I made a vow to speak and move from my soul and not a script, to live from truth and REframe fear no matter how imperfect, dark or icky it gets or how many times I think I’ve fucked up, it’s all beautifully real, meaningful and life affirming.
A few years on and after my 2nd child I was given another defining moment - A chronic dis-ease in my nervous system which left me frequently collapsing, having seizures and weak for many months.
Call it a Shakti activation or just a serious wake-up call but it quite literally jolted me to unearth even more authenticity and vulnerability, revealing an unshakable sense of knowing who I am, my path and why I’m here:
For the Heart and the Art of being Human and…
Somatic alchemising, somatic living, somatic mothering, somatic storytelling and guiding others back home to wholeness through the beauty of our humanness.
My mission: To embody a sacred and fulfilled life rooted in trust, integrity and truth, to guide my children by example and support others to regulate, reconnect, reframe and discover wisdom, wholeness and freedom.
Feel the pull to explore and celebrate the art and heart of being human? Ready to listen in, transform your experiences and remember what you are here for….?
COME in CLOSER.
