Real transformation isn’t about results, it’s about people.
I have some big news to share, and I’m super excited about it!
After more than two decades of helping organisations lead change, lift performance, develop capability and capacity, and shape culture, I’ve officially stepped into a new chapter:
Helping heart-centred leaders and their teams reignite their spark, reconnect to what truly matters, and deliver meaningful results with energy and impact.
Over the past few years, I have noticed more and more people coming to the realisation that work isn’t working for them. And I started to feel it deeply too.
The pressure to fit into 'the way things work’ is silencing leaders and their teams, making it harder for them to be themselves and do their best work.
There is a relentless push for people to deliver extraordinary results despite shrinking resources, tighter timelines, and growing scrutiny, and it is pushing people to breaking point.
Yes, many teams are achieving incredible things, but at what cost?
Too many of us have spent years adjusting who we are to survive in spaces that were never designed for us. We’ve learned to make others comfortable, to hustle harder, to hide parts of ourselves just to get by. It works… for a while. But there comes a point when cracks start to show. Burnout creeps in. Passion fades. We lose connection not just to our work, but to ourselves.
While this is a common experience, it hits women, queer, and neurodivergent folk hard, and it’s particularly brutal for Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander communities. Our mob deserves better.
Now more than ever we need heart-centred leaders building and leading diverse teams who are unshakably grounded in who they are and the difference they make in the world.
This is my sweet spot - helping leaders and their teams activate their inner spark.
So, I’m about to officially open the doors to a new coaching experience called Luminous.
For 12-weeks I’ll be working one-on-one with a select group of queer, quirky, heart-centred leaders who are tired of feeling diminished.
Using the magic of embodied awareness, creativity, deep reflection, insights, and aligned action, we’ll explore what lights us up on the inside and figure out how we can all break free from conditioned patterns that drain our souls.
My work isn’t about quick fixes or surface-level development or toxic self-care. It’s about transforming the way we work so we can slow down, tune in, and rebuild the capacity to lead and work from the inside out. It’s about remembering what lights you up and choosing to lead and work from that place, sustainably and unapologetically.
So this is me:
I’m a transformation coach, facilitator, and inner spark activator.
I help queer and quirky leaders move through burnout and beyond the expectations of others, so they can reconnect with themselves and what matters most. My work blends coaching psychology, change leadership, art, creativity, yoga, and yoga therapy to support real, lasting change.

The more sparks we reignite, the better.
