I spent years looking highly capable from the outside while running my own internal shit storm.

High functioning 'A' Game, high achieving, and not entirely sure what I was actually building.

Sound familiar?

That is exactly why I do this work.

The brief back story

In 2012 I walked out of a lengthy career with JPMorgan and Goldman Sachs. Not because I could not do it. Because the version of me doing it was running on anxiety, adrenaline, and a persistent sense that something was deeply wrong.

My health was telling me what I was not yet ready to say out loud.

I did not arrive at that point by accident. I left home at 16 with a bag, a journal, and a teddy bear, heading to a women's refuge with my mum. I grew up in poverty and chronic adversity, with spiritual gifts I kept firmly hidden. I learned early how to function, how to perform, masking, how to keep moving. I was good at it. Dangerously good at it.

Corporate London was just a more expensive version of the same pattern. The title changed. The anxiety did not.

 

 

The rebuilding

Leaving was the first real choice I made entirely for myself. What followed was decades of figuring out how to actually live rather than just cope. Therapy, martial arts, yoga, deep self enquiry, mentoring young people through Young Enterprise and The Prince's Trust, building my own business from scratch, living as a digital nomad, writing a book. None of it linear. All of it real.

I trained my scattered, distracted mind to focus on what mattered to me. Not through force or discipline alone, but through understanding how my mind actually worked and building the structure to match it, I needed security and I created it.

That process is the foundation of everything I now do with clients.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Who I am now

I am a certified coach with twelve years of corporate leadership experience and twelve years running my own gig. I'm a digital nomad and when I'm not based in the South West UK, I travel the world and run my business remotely. 

 

I have held space across board rooms, creative circles and ceremonies. I have a foot in both worlds and I understand both kinds of stuck.

I trust my instinct and intuition fully, I make decisions and I commit. I get the things done that I want to do and I never wait for 'one day'. 

I work with like minded, intelligent, capable people who are moving but circling. People who know what they want and not quite getting there. People who are spiritually curious, or at least open to the idea that there is more going on beneath the surface than a productivity system or supplement can fix.

I do not pretend to have it all figured out. I fill my cup with this work because I need it too. That is not a disclaimer. That is why it works.

The book

I am writing a book. It traces the patterns I did not know I was in, the cost of high functioning without actually living, and how I found my way through. It is honest, a little woo in places, and entirely true. I am sharing the process as it unfolds on Substack, the unfiltered version from the writer's desk. If that sounds like your kind of thing, come and follow along.

If She Can, I Can. That is the title, and that is the truth. If I can build this from where I started, you can move forward from where you are.

Watch my book writing journey unfold:
 
If She Can, I Can.

I've never written a book, it's a dream.
But - when is 'one day'?
If you can I can. If I can, you can.


I write about finding focus in chaos, real execution and what it actually takes to move forward.
