About Me

A Little Bit More About Me…

When I found out that I had Hashimoto’s Thyroiditis, I was told that I would never heal from it. Everything I read suggested that I would need to be on medication for the rest of my life. I exhausted multiple possibilities trying to prevent panic attacks and nightmares associated with CPTSD. My diet was extremely limited. I had brain fog and lethargy and was in constant pain every day. But, rather than give up, I dug my heels in and decided I was going to take charge of my health, whatever it took.

I have dedicated the last eight years to understanding how the mind and body work in synchrony to produce our conscious experience, making some important discoveries along the way. The first of these was learning to manage my stress response via the Vagus nerve.

Once I had quieted my nervous system and began to improve my emotional wellbeing, I began to learn more about how diet, exercise, self-expression and creativity, social connection, my thoughts, time in nature, genetics, even posture, all affect how we think and feel. Using everything I’ve learnt, I eliminated my CPTSD symptoms, put myself into remission from autoimmune disease, made new friends and strengthened relationships with family, and discovered a level of health I never knew was possible.

In short, I found joy in life again and I live a much richer and happier life than ever before.

I became dedicated to knowing myself, inside and out, which empowered to change my health and my life.

A very long time ago, I made a commitment to do whatever I could to bring about positive change in the world. I’m here to help you discover how you can become an expert on yourself, and make informed decisions that allow you to thrive. I can’t heal you but I believe that I can give you what you need to heal yourself.

My mission is built upon the knowledge that within each of us there is an inherent capacity for immense health, wellbeing, and accomplishment. The articles and resources you will find on this website, workshops and events that I run, and my one-on-one consultations, are all designed to deepen your understanding of yourself. In doing so, I hope to empower you with knowledge and skills that will help you transform your life for the better, wherever you are on your journey.

The best thing about everything I’ve learnt is that it doesn’t require taking pills or synthetic drugs, which can often have harmful side effects. It’s an approach based on optimising your body’s inher It’s based on my synthesis and interpretation of the latest and most relevant research, from a systems perspective. This means that, while I like to explain things as simply as possible, I don’t like to oversimplify.

There are no magic bullets here, just an ever-deepening understanding of how we can live our best life.
