My journey into well-being began around 20 years ago, when a health challenge prompted me to explore meditation more deeply. What started as a personal practice evolved into a professional path, and I became a meditation teacher. However, I soon realised that formal meditation doesn’t suit everyone. People have unique needs, lifestyles, and preferences, and for some, structured sitting practices may feel uncomfortable or impractical to integrate into daily life.

Determined to make mindfulness more accessible, I trained extensively in Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) to become an ACT and Commitment Coach (ACC).  ACC offers a flexible, evidence-based approach that combines mindfulness with values-guided goal setting—empowering individuals to navigate life’s challenges with clarity, purpose, and sustainable motivation for meaningful change. 

When I discovered ACC, something shifted. I stopped searching for the next answer or the next system, because ACC offered something fundamentally different: the ability to navigate life with greater ease while acting in line with what truly matters. It does not promise a life free from stress, grief, or disappointment—because we are human, and life happens. Instead, it supports us in building a meaningful life alongside all of it. 

Over the years, we’ve added a greater focus on self-compassion to our coaching. The same kindness we naturally offer a friend is practised inwardly, creating an inner partnership that supports meaningful change, resilience, and personal growth

We have also refined the way we present our material. Workshops and courses are packed with exercises you can use in your day. Our work translates wellbeing into practical, accessible skills that fit real work and real life.  Every session is designed so participants leave with one clear, realistic action they feel confident implementing immediately. It is material designed for real people leading real lives. Integratable, useful and meaningful. 

The heart of my work has always been the felt sense of coming home – coming home to your self – coming home to the quiet wisdom of your own heart.

 “listen to what your heart is whispering to you.”

This language may sound softer than the corporate messages we’re used to seeing, but the work itself is anything but fluffy. It supports people in developing a steadier, more grounded way of showing up in their lives — particularly during periods of sustained pressure, uncertainty, or emotional strain. Rather than offering a set of tools to apply when things go wrong, this work invites a way of engaging with life that becomes embodied and lived.

For many people, this experience feels like a coming home — not to a perfected version of themselves, but to a gentler, more anchored way of being. A place of greater presence, clarity, and choice.

And does that mean I have and we have all got life worked out?   Absolutely not.  But what changes is not the absence of struggle, but the relationship with it. As I continue on this journey with ACC, I notice these moments more quickly. I get better at spotting when I’ve slipped into autopilot. I get better at pausing, at choosing, at gently coming back. And that, for me, is where the real work lives.

When I stay connected to my values, something subtle but powerful changes. No matter what the day brings, I can find small moments to act in ways that matter to me. Those moments add up. They make life feel rich and meaningful — even when it’s hard. 

A life well lived isn’t tidy or perfect. It’s often messy, sometimes exhausting, sometimes deeply joyful, and often all of those things in the same day. What shifts is not the absence of difficulty, but the way I relate to it. I have a way of meeting life that feels grounded, honest, and real — even in a world full of distraction and constant busyness.

Now more than ever, we need space to pause and take stock. To reconnect with what truly matters. To listen for what makes our hearts come alive — and to act on it now, rather than waiting for the perfect moment, the right level of confidence, or for life to become easier.

Not waiting until the business feels less risky.
Not waiting until the children are older.
Not waiting until everything is lined up just right.

This work is about choosing to live in alignment — imperfectly, courageously, and in the midst of real life. This is our home.
