Ireland
Throughout my professional journey, I have cultivated a diverse portfolio career marked by a breadth of experiences and achievements. However, behind the scenes, my trajectory was shaped by health challenges. And in 2012, I faced the difficult decision to step away from a flourishing management career due to the pervasive symptoms that impeded my daily functioning and rendered me unable to continue in the workplace. My quest for answers to my own health issues was the catalyst for my exploration into holistic wellness which then propelled me into the realms of Holistic Nutrition, Reiki, Yoga & Mindfulness. Along this journey, I discovered a passion for assisting others on their paths to well-being. And as a self-employed individual, I had the flexibility to balance work and manage an illness that remained unnamed and I built a wonderful yoga community filled with amazing women. Regrettably, in 2018, the severity of my condition compelled me to make the difficult decision to step away from my thriving yoga business. I continued to grapple with this mysterious illness until 2021 when I finally received a diagnosis of Endometriosis. Following expert excision surgery in London in Nov 2021, my life took a positive turn. The relentless nausea, pain, migraines, chronic fatigue, brain fog, gut issues and compromised immune system that plagued me daily for years eased significantly. This disease and the renewed ability to return to work has given me a new perspective on life. And I feel even more certain than ever that my joy lies in helping others, especially women in mid-life (30's and beyond). This period of social, psychological and biological transition includes such an array of potentially stressful events for us as women as we navigate our personal, family, work, health and financial lives. It can be messy and is often a time when we as women can feel lost, overwhelmed and sometimes at a real crossroads in our lives. But it is also a magical time of transformation. And it is our time. And if for whatever reason(s) you are not feeling it then as a professional coach (in the thick of this transition), I can offer you a safe and transformative space. One where you can shatter self-sabotaging thoughts and limiting beliefs and ignite your fire to be brave, make choices, seek clarity and embrace your potential. To be the designer of a life you love!
