Release self-sabotage, rise with confidence & lead your business + life with clarity & heart đ¤
âŹď¸ Start your journey Like many, my past has been filled with ugly moments and deep trauma. As a child, I faced sexual abuse, followed by toxic relationships where my partner's addiction became the catalyst for me leaving and stepping into the challenging role of a single mum to two young children. In my late 20s, while juggling motherhood, I secretly struggled with debilitating panic attacks. Fearful of being seen as anything less than a strong, independent woman, I kept my suffering hidden. The weight of it all became unbearable, and I sought help to break free from the spiral I was in. I vividly remember going to my doctor, only to be told, "Itâs all in your head." While that phrase stuck with me, I was left confused, with no tools or guidance on how to change what was happening inside me. Thankfully, fate intervened, and I found a healer who would shift my world in ways I never imagined. Over the next 20 years, I committed to peeling back the layers of pain and releasing the limiting beliefs that had held me hostage for so long. Each session, each breakthrough, helped me reclaim a part of myself that I had lost to trauma and fear. One of the greatest lessons Iâve learned is the importance of trusting my intuition and silencing the external noise. I stopped seeking validation or direction from others and began to recognise that the answers I needed were always within me. This realisation led me down a completely different pathâthe path I was always meant to walk. Suddenly, everything clicked. After a lifetime in the corporate world, I found the courage to leave that life behind. I embraced my journey fully, listening to my heart and soul, trusting that I was on the right path. And that journey has led me hereâto a place where I can help others through their own healing, transformation, and empowerment. Now in my 50s, I am filled with gratitude for every part of my journey. I am finally living life by my own rules, continuing to grow, heal, and make the most of each day. And through my experiences, Iâm here to guide others to do the sameâto find peace, to release what no longer serves them, and to embrace the life they truly deserve.

Our feet are the foundation of movement, our connection to the earth and symbol of forward momentum.
Stiffness, aches, or discomfort here may reflect:
Feeling stuck or unable to move forward
Lack of trust in the path ahead
Fear around where youâre stepping next
Somatic release:
Sit comfortably and gently flex and point your toes. Then, roll your ankles in circular motions. As you move, whisper: âItâs safe to step forward. I trust my path.â Can you feel even a small shift?
If you felt that nudge toward movement, drop a STEADY in the comments or save for when you need courage to take the next step.

Your essence is curious. Open. Expansive. It doesnât judge.
Thatâs the space we step into together.
As a coach, my role isnât to criticise, itâs to create what I call a âloving sandwich.â
⨠âHereâs what I notice from my perspectiveâŚâ
⨠âAre you open to some reflection?â
⨠âThank you for sharing.â
From there, curiosity replaces judgment.
Self-forgiveness softens the edges.
And the mirror? It helps us see whatâs truly ours to explore and what belongs to others.
Sometimes, when something stings, thatâs the sign. Thatâs the gold. Thatâs the place ready for healing and growth.
Coaching isnât heavy. Itâs liberating.
Itâs permission to get curious about your inner world and step into the version of you thatâs always been there, waiting.

Dave once said to me,
âI give you full permission to tell me anything... even if you think it will offend me. Iâm not a mind reader, and I might be able to change what Iâm doing or fix it.â
It stopped me in my tracks.
Because how often do we not say the thing?
How often do we bite our tongue, sit in silent resentment, or tell ourselves, âThey should know!â
The truth is⌠most people arenât mind readers.
Even the ones who love us deeply.
We expect others to meet needs weâve never spoken.
We carry wounds in silence, hoping someone else will just get it.
But real connection, real healing, it starts with courageous honesty.
You are allowed to express whatâs not working.
You are allowed to say what hurts.
And you are absolutely allowed to ask for what you need.
Your needs donât make you difficult.
They make you human.
So if youâve been holding it in, waiting, hoping, tiptoeing around your truth,
this is your reminder to speak up.
Not everyone will give you permission like Dave did.
But you donât need their permission to honour your truth.
Your voice matters.
Use it.

You can have the best systems, the latest tech, and the hardest hustle... but if youâre carrying:
⢠Self-doubt
⢠Fear of failure (or success)
⢠Perfectionism
⢠People-pleasing
⢠Old beliefs that youâre ânot enoughâ
âŚthen youâll keep hitting the same ceiling, no matter how hard you push.
True success starts on the inside, with clarity, confidence and calm.
Thatâs where your energy shifts, your focus sharpens and your results expand.
So let me ask:
Whatâs the invisible block standing between you and the next level of your business?
đż Supporting entrepreneurs, professionals and real estate agents in finding balance, clarity and inner alignment, so success flows from within.

Our elbows are about flexibility, boundaries and adaptability. They bend and twist, offering us choice in how we straddle our world.
When the elbow feels strained or sore, it may signal:
Difficulty bending, not wanting to compromise or adapt
Holding on too tightly to control or old beliefs
Resisting change or new possibilities
Gentle somatic release:
Extend your arm gently, then slowly bend it toward your shoulder. Do this with intent, breathing deeply. As you move, say to yourself: âI allow flexibility. I release the need to control.â Let the movement soften whatâs held tight.
If this resonates, drop a YES in the comments or save for a day your body needs to bend with grace.

Thank you for tuning in and trusting your intuition yesterday. Here are the messages from the universe, just for you:
đż Left - Building Blocks
Youâre being reminded that the strong foundation youâre creating now is setting you up for long-term success. Every small step counts. Trust that what youâre building... in your life, relationships, or career, will stand the test of time. Stay grounded and intentional.
đ¸ Middle - Breathe
This is your invitation to pause, soften, and reconnect with your breath. You donât need to rush or force anything right now. Give yourself space to simply be, and clarity will naturally arise. When you slow down, you allow your intuition to guide you with ease.
đ Right - Message in a Bottle
The universe is sending you signs, pay attention! A message or synchronicity is trying to reach you, whether through a conversation, a dream, or something that catches your eye. Be open to guidance in unexpected ways; what youâve been seeking is already on its way.

Mistakes donât define you, your response to them does.
Beating yourself up only gets in the way of the lesson.
Take a breath.
Take the learning.
Then take a step forward.
Thatâs how resilience grows.
Thatâs how you grow.

What if your tr@uma didnât come from the event itselfâŚ
âŚbut from the silence that followed?
Many experts in the field now understand that itâs not just the event, but the lack of care, validation, and safety after it that leaves the deepest mark.
đż Dr. Gabor MatĂŠ, renowned tr@uma expert, says:
> âTr@uma is not what happens to you, but what happens inside you as a result of what happens to you.â
đż Peter Levine, founder of Somatic Experiencing, explains:
> âTr@uma is not in the event, but in the nervous systemâs response when that event couldnât be fully processed and released.â
In simpler terms?
When you experience something overwhelming and youâre left alone with it, judged for it, told to "get over it", or had no safe place to land, thatâs when it sinks in deep.
And thatâs what we gently begin to shift in healing work.
đŤ Not by âfixingâ you, but by helping the parts of you that felt abandoned or frozen feel safe, seen, and supported now.
This is your reminder:
If youâre carrying something heavy, itâs not a sign youâre weak, itâs a sign you werenât met with the care you needed.
And that can be rewritten.
⨠My work supports women through:
â Somatic & energy healing
â Inner child connection
â Nervous system safety
â EFT tapping & intuitive coaching
Letâs shift the story with compassion, not shame.

When you want to scream, âIâm done with all this sh*tâŚâ
That moment you feel like everythingâs crumbling?
Itâs not a breakdown.
Itâs a breakthrough.
It means something in you is done pretending.
Done pushing down the pain.
Done people-pleasing, over-giving, self-abandoning.
It means youâre finally ready to:
⨠Drop the mask
⨠Face the truth
⨠Begin the real healing
These moments feel raw, uncomfortable, messy, but they are also sacred.
They are the doorway to the version of you thatâs been waiting to rise.
If you're here now feeling the unravelling, trust that this is the beginning of coming home to yourself. You donât have to do it alone.
đ§Ą I see you. Iâve been there. And I can walk with you.

I have studied many wellness and healing modalities over the years including Aromatherapy, Reiki, Kinesi-Crystal Therapy and Reset, and l am also active in wellness groups, including a mediumship group, and l use my intuition coupled with research to guide me when creating each of my blends.
I believe that nature plays a huge and important role in our wellness and we can only benefit from anything that comes from the earth. Our bodies and emotions grow and heal with thanks to what the earth provides and essential oils are a gift which come from various parts of flowers and plants and are known to be beneficial to us in so many ways.
I started my Melbourne based business to bring a natural alternative to those who seek it. I source local products where possible and hand pour all of my essential oil products, using top quality, natural ingredients and 100% pure essential oils only so the therapeutic benefits stay intact.
Let the benefits of essential oils become a part of your every day life.
