Hello – what brings you here today?

If we haven’t met yet and you are here for the first time …what an interesting time to be connecting as we enter the second half 2023 and beyond. If you have landed on my site today, I imagine you too are on your own deep journey of navigating some crossroads looming up ahead, undergoing current transitions or needing to be ‘stepping out’ in some form now, right?

I have been based on the small sacred ISLE of IONA, in the Inner Hebrides, Scotland for the last 18 months. It is my first home base after living #LocationFree around the world for 6 years. Yes, literally out of a suitcase traveling and working globally.

I underwent a mammoth re-jig of life, love, business and my country of residence a while back before choosing this islnd as my main home.

I took some much-needed time off back in 2020 /21 as I was in a place of both BURN-OUT and BOREDOM- a bizarre combination to be sure. This resulted from being way too overworked and lacking purpose for my next chapter up ahead. I had a business and author/speaker brand I had absolutely loved for 17 years. Truly loved. Yet suddenly things were rapidly changing for me on all levels.

I realize I needed some #MeTime, to really slow down and tune into what was going on inside my heart. I embarked on an intentional pilgrimage (aka personal retreat) to Iona, a remote western Scottish Isle. I had worked there over 20 years ago, and it was whispering my name to call me back to its rocky shores. I answered the call, and in July 2020 as soon as lockdown lifted journeyed there to pause, reflect deeply and greet my real self again. I  tapped into all the processes I usually do with my clients.

I needed to close out, honour and release the past, in order to truly bring all of myself into the present and feel proud of my life and my work. And from that place of stillness, I have been able to recreate a relevant, up-to-date version of myself and my life’s work again.
I now focus all my love and energy on hosting Retreats in gorgeous destinations – working with groups, private 1:1, and virtual!
You can find me on Iona, Greece, or Italy this year.

I love being in the sparkle of possibility that exists in that small gap between NO LONGER …and …NOT YET

You can also read my heartfelt sharing of my powerful retreat time on Iona here to get a sense of the depth of work I do and what exactly I processed on this minute Sacred Isle of Iona. I deeply respect the real power that emerges from letting go: whether the physical, body, emotional, mental or in spiritual realms. The intense ritual of letting go and actively embracing closure creates the next step – the intense and real space – what I called The Gap. That gap exists for a reason, as it’s a vital pause before you can decide what to ‘call into’ your life next

My experience, both professionally, in business and simply in the way I have embraced this journey called life, might just be the tonic, support and compassionate nudge you need at this time in your life.

I support you on the threshold of making courageous leaps
My clients are usually in what I call a mid-life phase.

It’s a magnificent milestone to reach and cross in our feminine journey. I am called to help you face and embrace your life, challenges, dilemmas and activate your dreams to create the next chapter in your life with purpose.

I will support you to find a sense of inner pride again.
Self-love and Self-care.
For you to expend energy in the right places for the right reasons.
To get closure, pause, and then re-dream your future.

I help clients to be bold and brave and say YES to the right things.
To cross those pivotal thresholds and take that leap.
That may mean closing out and completing various things for you – walking away from a partner, selling your business, leaving a country, facing retrenchment, selling a home, saying no, putting up boundaries – or any other manner of things that involve change, moving on, or a massive upheaval and rift in identity.

It is also about finding your way to sit in the sticky middle, that GAP, the unknown. And doing it mindfully and intentionally.

That potentially dreadful and uncomfortable place we do not usually find it easy to sit with.
We want to chase after the hints of excitement floating about the periphery rather than SIT still and reflect.

The next chapter can then be created from a place of space and it usually involves getting stuck into what really matters: Finally writing your book or blog
Starting that business
Taking that world trip
Buying that home and changing your lifestyle
Or do what I have done for the past 6 years and live #LocationFree globally?
Start speaking on stage, launch that course, start your family, finally stand up for yourself, accept that invitation to the dinner party upstairs, become that artist that resides in your heart or go on that date 🙂

To just live your life with pride, delight and a sense of purpose.
Step into your power & shine your light.

You might be drawn to come on RETREAT with me if you are: 

*  At a huge crossroads or milestone in your life
*  What used to work no longer does, but you’re not yet sure what is next
*  Needing to take some TIME OUT and find a way to listen to your heart again?
*  Wish to honor the call deep inside you – the one that usually gets pushed swiftly to the bottom of your priority list?

We are so terrified of that GAP after NO LONGER, aren’t we?

I am becoming more and more fascinated with the power of creating shifts through the counter-intuitive idea of slowing down, detoxing (both body and tech) and pressing PAUSE in order to PONDER what truly matters. Then from that place of mindful stillness, you can weave your way back into your life and activate your dreams.

If you are still reading, then chances are you are 45-65, a little bored and listless and KNOW in your heart there is more to life. But perhaps you are also too stuck, scared or exhausted to do anything about it.

Maybe it’s all feeling a bit BLEH and overwhelming to be honest?

I offer VIP private retreats on Iona (plus a few virtually – See NEW YEAR 2022) group retreats around the world, writing residencies and spend a lot of my time mentoring women approaching powerful transition points. I used to work extensively in the online space running courses, groups, masterminds and coaching for the past 19 years, and now work more intimately face to face or running Limited Edition Virtual Retreats that have a bespoke handmade Treasure Trove guide couriered to your door.

I prefer to offer more of myself and work heart-to-heart,  hand-to-hand and face-to-face.
With you right in front of me or using my product as your guide at home.

Sound like just what you need right now – then perhaps it’s time to make the journey to meet me and greet yourself?
