About me, work stuff!
After a successful but often miserable career in the corporate world, I decided that life is way too short to be so unhappy and escaped - crazily without a plan of what I wanted to do. I had always hated suffering and discovered NLP to help myself with my own personal confidence back in 1993 - my first introduction to Paul McKenna was a cassette recording on confidence! So, in 2009, I retrained as a Clinical Hypnotherapist and NLP Master Practitioner and Trainer, so I could feel like I was making a difference in the world and living life on my terms.
My journey was often crippled with crises of confidence and feeling like I wasn't good enough, and it took a few years of working with clients and on my own personal development to break through. I know that everything I have been through, including the struggles and doubts, has enabled me to serve my clients so much better. I spent years dreaming big but playing it small until I realised I wasn't doing anyone any favours by holding myself back.
I know that so many women have so much to give, who have all the potential to live the life of their dreams and build successful businesses or careers, but something is holding them back. These women know what they should do, but something is stopping them. It may be an unconscious reason holding them back, or perhaps a skill is missing.
Using a combination of human needs psychology, CBT and NLP, I work with the unconscious part of the mind. I help my clients take action and make lifelong, lasting changes by asking the right questions and teaching them the proper tools and techniques. Life's too short to be unhappy or unfulfilled — so what’s holding you back? Let me help you learn better ways to handle the issues that stand in the way of your dreams - helping you, your family, and all the people who are waiting for you to help them.
Yep, I am a bit obsessed with personal development and learning new skills to help you overcome what is holding you back and then to help you develop the skills to lead you to the success you are looking for.

I am a very lucky lady! (erm but don't we make our own luck?)
I live my dream with my husband and business partner, Tim, a certified Nutritionist, Chef, and Ultra-Runner (i.e., my personal chef!).
We live in a beautiful country villa in gorgeous Andalusia in southern Spain, where we have three rescued fur babies: Carlos, Brian, and Campy.
It is the perfect sanctuary to hold our retreats and a far cry from my unhappy commuting life 15+ years ago.
When we decided to sell everything and move to Spain, we made some scary changes in our lives, but they were 100% worth it.
We are now both so passionate about helping other people live the life of their dreams.
I enjoy daily pinch-myself moments and would love the same for you.
