My Unfolding: A Journey of Belonging and Remembrance

 

Roots of Wonder

As a child, I was deeply connected to the natural world. I'd rush home from school, eager to escape into the embrace of trees, feeling an innate sense of peace, belonging and safety. My world was magical - speaking to the moon, creating worm hospitals, and reveling in the pure joy of mud and imagination. Even then, I showed a deep compassion and curiosity about life's intricate connections.

 

The Path of Disconnection

As I grew older, societal expectations began to dim my wild, intuitive nature. School and later, work demanded conformity - achievement became my currency of worth. I learned to mold myself to fit in, hiding my sensitivity and deep perception. Gradually, I became disconnected from myself, from nature, and from my true essence.

 

Awakening through Stillness

My journey of reconnection began unexpectedly in 2011 when severe burnout led me to be bedbound with Chronic Fatigue Syndrome and Fibromyalgia. This enforced stillness became my greatest teacher. I began to rediscover a gentler way of being - listening to my body's intelligence, embracing my emotions, allowing vulnerability and allowing myself to be supported.

 

The Catalyst of Grief

A profound loss in 2017 became the true catalyst for my awakening. Grief cracked my heart open, taking me to the depths of my being. In the darkness, I discovered what I'd been seeking had always existed within me - my innate wholeness and perfection.

 

Remembrance through Nature

A pivotal encounter with a silver birch in October 2018 renewed my deep connection

with the natural world. Nature became more than an escape - it became a profound

teacher, reawakening my sense of wonder and helping me to cultivate a deeper

sense of presence in my life.

 

My Calling: Guiding Women Home

Today, I'm called to support women in slowing down and reconnecting with their own true nature. I believe that by tending to our inner ecology, we can create meaningful change and heal our relationship with the Earth. Through my work, I invite women to choose a path of interdependence, moving away from the fast-paced "more-now-better-me" culture.

 

Professional Foundations

My approach is grounded in both professional expertise and deep personal wisdom:

• Chartered Psychologist

• Therapeutic Coach & Accredited Certified EFT Practitioner

• 8 Shields Nature Connection Programmes

• Emotional Intelligence, Resilience and Leadership Accreditations

 

I share from a deeply embodied place, drawing upon the wisdom I have gathered on my own journey of reconnection and remembrance of my own true nature, along with my skills, experience and knowledge as a psychologist and therapeutic coach. Since 2021 I have also been engaged with programmes inspired by the 8 Shields model of nature connection and culture repair, which have provided a framework and deeper level of meaning to my own discoveries.

 

The Path of Beauty and Wonder is not about doing more, but being more of who we truly are.
