Like most people, I’ve definitely experienced a lot of setbacks and challenges in my life. Growing up in poverty, becoming a single Mum at seventeen and losing my Dad to suicide when I was nineteen, just to name a few. As you could imagine these all affected my mental health deeply. It was during these early years I knew something had to change. I was determined that this was not going to be how my story went. I had two choices. Either sit back, play victim and let life happen to me, or get in the drivers seat and take the wheel myself. 

​

This is when I decided to start my journey of healing and self-discovery. I attended therapy, read self development books (originally begrudgingly but now I'm obsessed!), put the work into myself and made myself a priority. It was during this journey where I realized if I was able to help myself, then maybe I could help others too! While I was working as a Beauty Therapist, I discovered the thing I loved most about my job is the people I got to meet, the life stories I got to hear, and it felt great to know people left beaming with self-confidence and just feeling better about life after our chats. Although I did love my job, I knew I was destined for more. I knew I could help people in bigger ways. But how?

​

This is when it dawned on me, Mental Health Coaching! That’s what I wanted to do! That is how I want to help people! So, I did it. I took the leap and flew to Wellington where I embarked on the most life changing ‘Breakthrough Life Coaching’ course. I knew for sure this was my calling. This passion for helping people and desire for learning about how they tick has also led me to do more ongoing study where I completed a Diploma in Counselling and Psychology.

​

So, between my Certificates, Diplomas and a PHD in life! I believe I can help YOU become the best version of yourself and push past your own challenges and setbacks, and give you the space, tools and empowerment to embark on your own journey!
