Hello
I am so pleased you have found my website!
Perimenopause and menopause is such a tough time for so many of us! 'What is going on with me?' words I repeated for years, life felt it was falling apart, failure and loss.
I didn't give up, I have evolved and now my purpose is to share my learning with you, hold space for you and bring you clarity and joy.
In doing so, we change our perception of this wonderful time of our lives and become a collaborative force to increase inclusivity at work and life.
You can have the life you deserve and everything you want and need!

My Story
Turning Challenges into Triumph: My Journey of Growth and Purpose
Life doesn’t just test us—it teaches us. Every challenge is an invitation to rise stronger, to discover parts of ourselves we never knew existed. I’ve learned this through experience, and today, I want to share my story of transformation.
Discovering My Passion
From the very beginning, I’ve been passionate about learning, coaching, and helping people unlock their potential. I quickly realised the power of connection. I could influence decisions, inspire confidence, and bring out the best in teams. Creativity, humour, and authenticity became my superpowers.
Building a Career I Loved
By chance, I moved into vocational training—a world that allowed me to combine my love for learning with leadership. I worked my way through quality and operational management, eventually leading large delivery teams across the UK to deliver apprenticeship programs for major employers. I adored this work. It was meaningful, impactful, and aligned with my purpose. I earned a First-Class Honours degree in Business and Leadership and gained experience in coaching, assessing, tutoring, and teaching. That was a turning point. Life was shifting. Then, redundancy happened.
Redefining Opportunity
Instead of seeing it as an ending, I embraced it as a new beginning. I pursued an MSc in Human Resource Management and moved my career to the Public Sector and the Civil Service.
Navigating the Storm
Behind the achievements, I faced personal battles—hormonal imbalance, perimenopause, surgical menopause, anxiety, panic attacks, asthma flare ups, multiple blood tests - I went from confident and capable to feeling overwhelmed. I searched for answers, sometimes in ways that didn’t help. I received an ADHD diagnosis at 52 years of age which gave me an opportunity. Eventually, I had a realisation: your strengths are your superpower, and your voice matters.
Finding My Voice and Purpose
Coaching became my anchor. I’ve always excelled at holding space for others—listening deeply, supporting growth, and creating a safe environment. But I also needed to heal myself. That’s when I discovered Reiki. Reiki gave me confidence, clarity, and a new perspective. It helped me tune into the energy I had always felt but never understood. Through Reiki, I found my voice and my truth.
The Bigger Mission
Today, I see myself as a catalyst for change—someone who sees things differently and uses that gift for the greatest good. My connections through Reiki and life have introduced me to incredible people working to make a difference, especially for women navigating challenges like menopause and hormonal health. When women thrive, families and workplaces thrive too.
Here’s what I want you to know:
Your challenges don’t define you—they refine you. Every setback is a setup for a comeback. Your strengths can become your superpower. And sometimes, the hardest chapters lead to the most powerful transformations.
