My Story

I'm passionate about health and wellbeing, and my own lived experience has shown me that small shifts can have a profound impact.

My approach brings together three areas that have shaped my own wellbeing journey: Coaching and Havening, Women’s Metabolic Health and Fasting, and the Science of Water and Hydration. Each came into my life at exactly the right moment, and each changed the way I understand health, healing and what it means to truly thrive.

Born in the UK, I’ve called New Zealand home for almost 20 years. I bring a blend of professional experience, lived experience and genuine curiosity to everything I do.

When I’m not working, you’ll usually find me at the beach, on my kiteboard, or at home with my daughter and our dog.

What makes me thrive? Time by the ocean, nourishing food, my hydrogen-rich water,  space to simply be, and people who lift me up. The simple things, lived fully.

I’m a person-centred coach with a Master’s in Coaching and more than 35 years of client-facing and leadership experience. I believe we all have answers within us, and sometimes what we need most is someone who listens deeply, thinks clearly alongside us, and cheers us on as we bring those answers to the surface.

As a certified Havening Techniques Practitioner, I support people to release what’s been holding them back and move forward with more clarity, confidence and calm.

As a certified Fast Like a Girl coach, trained under Dr Mindy Pelz, I offer science-backed, female-focused metabolic health support for women who want to better understand their hormones, energy and body.

As a certified Molecular Hydrogen Adviser, I help individuals, wellness-focused entrepreneurs and values-led businesses understand the role water can play in energy, recovery and long-term vitality.

My background spans statistics, business and professional coaching, and I bring that breadth to everything I do, along with genuine curiosity and a deep desire to support the people I work with to thrive.

My clients describe me as someone who truly listens, sees the whole picture, and brings both insight and care to the work we do together.

I believe we do our best work when we feel genuinely supported. That's why community is at the heart of everything I do, whether that's one to one work, group spaces, or simply knowing someone is in your corner.

I work with clients online and face to face. Wherever you are, I'd love to support you on that journey.
