🌿Sessions held ONLINE or IN-PERSON visit my website to learn more (link below) Like many, my past has been filled with ugly moments and deep trauma. As a child, I faced sexual abuse, followed by toxic relationships where my partner's addiction became the catalyst for me leaving and stepping into the challenging role of a single mum to two young children. In my late 20s, while juggling motherhood, I secretly struggled with debilitating panic attacks. Fearful of being seen as anything less than a strong, independent woman, I kept my suffering hidden. The weight of it all became unbearable, and I sought help to break free from the spiral I was in. I vividly remember going to my doctor, only to be told, "It’s all in your head." While that phrase stuck with me, I was left confused, with no tools or guidance on how to change what was happening inside me. Thankfully, fate intervened, and I found a healer who would shift my world in ways I never imagined. Over the next 20 years, I committed to peeling back the layers of pain and releasing the limiting beliefs that had held me hostage for so long. Each session, each breakthrough, helped me reclaim a part of myself that I had lost to trauma and fear. One of the greatest lessons I’ve learned is the importance of trusting my intuition and silencing the external noise. I stopped seeking validation or direction from others and began to recognise that the answers I needed were always within me. This realisation led me down a completely different path—the path I was always meant to walk. Suddenly, everything clicked. After a lifetime in the corporate world, I found the courage to leave that life behind. I embraced my journey fully, listening to my heart and soul, trusting that I was on the right path. And that journey has led me here—to a place where I can help others through their own healing, transformation, and empowerment. Now in my 50s, I am filled with gratitude for every part of my journey. I am finally living life by my own rules, continuing to grow, heal, and make the most of each day. And through my experiences, I’m here to guide others to do the same—to find peace, to release what no longer serves them, and to embrace the life they truly deserve.

We all carry stories that once kept us safe but now keep us small.
The moment you meet your past with compassion instead of shame, everything starts to shift.
You stop fighting who you were and begin to see who you’ve always been.

You don’t have to relive the past to heal it.
You just have to understand it differently.
For a long time, I thought healing meant digging up every old wound.
Now I know it’s not about reopening the pain.
It’s about meeting it with compassion. 🌿
If you’re ready to finally stop feeling “stuck in the story,” my 1:1 Counselling Sessions can help you find a new perspective that brings peace, not pain.

Now that you have awareness, the next step is uncovering your why.
Why do you give so much?
Why do you stay quiet when you want to speak?
Why do you rescue, fix or hold it all together?
Is it love — or is it fear?
Awareness is powerful, but transformation happens when you understand the story underneath it.
That’s where freedom begins.
If you’re ready to explore your why, I can help you untangle the patterns with compassion and clarity.

When I learned to stop rescuing others, I finally found peace.
It wasn’t easy, I had to face the truth that fixing everyone else was my way of avoiding my own pain.
For years, I called it love.
But what it really was… was self-abandonment dressed up as care.
The healing began when I turned that same tenderness inward.
When I started giving myself the love, patience and compassion I’d always poured into others, everything shifted.
That’s why I created my Journal Collection — to help you slow down, reflect and remember yourself again.
To hold space for your own release, not just everyone else’s.

As women, we’re often told that love means giving everything we have.
But love without boundaries becomes depletion — not devotion.
You don’t need to stop loving deeply.
You just need to include yourself in that love.
If you’ve lost your spark from overgiving, explore Counselling or Coaching with me.
Together we’ll uncover the patterns that make boundaries hard to hold, and shift them with compassion and clarity.

You can love deeply without losing yourself completely.
For years, I thought being kind meant saying yes, to everyone, for everything.

I have studied many wellness and healing modalities over the years including Aromatherapy, Reiki, Kinesi-Crystal Therapy and Reset, and l am also active in wellness groups, including a mediumship group, and l use my intuition coupled with research to guide me when creating each of my blends.
I believe that nature plays a huge and important role in our wellness and we can only benefit from anything that comes from the earth. Our bodies and emotions grow and heal with thanks to what the earth provides and essential oils are a gift which come from various parts of flowers and plants and are known to be beneficial to us in so many ways.
I started my Melbourne based business to bring a natural alternative to those who seek it. I source local products where possible and hand pour all of my essential oil products, using top quality, natural ingredients and 100% pure essential oils only so the therapeutic benefits stay intact.
Let the benefits of essential oils become a part of your every day life.
