Hello you
Preferentially
Purposefully
I coach with thinking HUMANS.
At the core of my work is an unconditional commitment to helping you to cultivate a sense of home within you.
Based on developing robust and tangible self-belief, self-worth, self trust and self-acceptance, coaching with me is about deeply knowing and accepting your whole self and understanding the patterns you are living in your life, work, and relationships.
I mentor Bravehearted business owners.
If you’re driven to use your talents in service to your people, it is absolutely possible to do this with integrity and a healthy income.
I help you navigate self-doubt and support you to create, build and grow a sustainable and successful business that supports you to thrive.
I host like-minded souls around a workshop table.
People say these experiences have been the birthplace of profound and abiding change in their lives.
Allowing yourself some time to explore who you are now is a gift to your future self. Expect a safe and welcoming space, nourishing food, pragmatic tools to open up your interior world, and always: belly laughs and magic.
I write as a practising human on Spaceship Earth.
I’ve been writing online since 2007: it’s the longest relationship of my adult life.
Words are like oxygen to me and I am fascinated by stories, ideas and conversations. When my pen scratches along the (literal or virtual) page, I am able to create a bridge between my thoughts and emotions, reason and intuition, the mundane and the magical.
Professionally
Psychometrically
Personally
I am powered by curiosity, kindness and black coffee.
I’m sharing this adventure with Mr P. Ash is my best friend, co-conspirator and favourite human. On paper, we couldn’t be more different, but our conscious, loving, sometimes crazy-making marriage is the thing I am most proud of. I don’t ever want our conversation to be over.
I love our big squishy sofa on a rainy Autumn afternoon. I can’t see a great movie too many times. I’ve travelled to every country in Europe and I still don’t believe in the physics of flight. Home is where my books are.
I believe in the healing power of belly laughs, poetry, bear-hugs, singing loudly while driving alone. And pie.
I’ve come to understand that being alive is an unending meaning-making process of imagination, experimentation and interpretation.
I agree with John Steinbeck: nothing good gets away.
It’s never too late to change your story.
Thanks for being here. I can already tell we’re going to get along bloody marvellously.
Arohanui,
from grieving, burnt-out and lost, to finding my way home
