If you've read every book, tried every retreat, done the therapy, and you're still lying awake at 2am wondering why none of it actually stuck, hi. Pull up a chair, kettle's on.

I spent years doing everything "right" and still felt like I was running on fumes. ICU nurse, Mental Health Director of Nursing, single mum barely holding it all together on not enough sleep and definitely not enough support, and underneath all of it, a woman who was quietly losing the plot and doing a very convincing job of hiding it. (I mean, I was funny. How bad could things really be, right? - ask my kids)

So I followed the whisper. First into songwriting, because music was the only place I could actually breathe without someone needing something from me. Then into energy work, because I started clocking that the body holds things that words and willpower and yet another self-help book never quite reach. Then into EFT, which was honestly the first thing that worked at the level where the patterns actually live, not in the mind where I'd been poking around for years with very little to show for it, but in the nervous system, in the cellular memory of everything I'd learned to survive. And then Human Design landed and handed me the missing map, and I sat there going oh. OH. So THAT'S what's been going on.

The path moved through some seriously hard things too. 19 years of bulimia, domestic violence, homelessness, raising kids largely on my own, and a coercive relationship during COVID that stripped away the last of what I thought I knew about myself. But those weren't detours. They were the curriculum. Every single one of them is why I can sit with a woman in her hardest moment and know exactly where we are, because I've been there with a toddler on my hip and $-47 in my account, and I know the way out.

I completed my Advanced EFT Practitioner certification through ATI under Lorna Hollinger, then deepened that work with Peta Stapleton's specialised training. I'm a co-author in "Tap Into Your Best Life" alongside Dr Peta Stapleton and Karl Dawson, endorsed by Brad Yates. My book "Tapping into Motherhood: EFT for Pregnancy and Beyond," with a foreword by Dr Peta Stapleton, is published and out in the world, and yes, the royalty cheque landed and I absolutely cried. "Stress-Free Perimenopause with EFT" is coming soon. I host "Well Then..." on 2DRY FM, and I facilitate sound baths with crystal bowls because sometimes the body needs sound before it can hear anything else.

None of it happened because I had it together. It happened because I mapped the way out of not having it together, and now I know exactly where the doors are.

Grab a cuppa. You're in the right place.
