Break The Cycle: A webinar for women ready to stop self-abandoning in relationships

  There came a moment in my past abusive relationships where something inside me said “not this, not anymore“.   Initially, it was a whisper, and the whisper got louder until I just couldn’t ignore it.  If this is happening to you right now too, it may still be a whisper that you don’t fully trust yet – and that’s totally ok.  But you are feeling it. Thinking it. Knowing it, deep in your bones somewhere.  That nagging feeling that…

I don’t fix people – I help them remember who the fck they are

  I help people get unstuck. Unstuck in their relationship, life and biz; but mostly unstuck from the mask they’ve been wearing to the outside world that’s been hiding their true, authentic self.  The kind of stuck that keeps your soul tired and your nervous system completely fried. 🫣 What I do best is help my peeps to clear the shit that’s been quietly running in the background that’s negatively impacting their lives; the patterns, limiting beliefs, conditioning, past trauma,…

When something feels off in your relationship (But you can’t explain why)

  It rarely starts with a big moment. 🤷🏼‍♀️  No dramatic fight. No obvious dealbreaker.

This means awareness is starting to…

When everything was always a drama: How toxic relationships turn emergencies into punishment

  As I write this, I’m mid-air flying to London for an emergency trip back to the UK. ✈️  Cam was there with me when I got some concerning news and he was so amazing, nothing but supportive. 🥰 It wasn’t even a thought that I had to ask for “permission” to book a flight home even though it means all our Christmas plans go out the window.  I had a moment where I thought what this would have been…

When love leaves you broke: How financial abuse nearly cost me everything

  “Have you ever considered bankruptcy?” 🧐  My stomach dropped when she suggested that to me. I was having a chat with My Budget, exploring options to get me out of the hole I’d gotten myself into. 🪏 🕳️  I was sitting in my newly built house, not being able to afford toilet roll. No landscaping, no blinds, and concrete floors after living there for three years. How did I let this happen? 🥺 I’d spent almost 8 years at…

How to know if it’s toxic or just hard work 💣

    “Relationships take work.” Well yep, that’s true, but there IS a difference between two people working on a healthy relationship and people disguising emotional damage as effort. The latter leads to slowly becoming a shell of yourself. 🐚  All relationships have challenges. Hard conversations, disagreements and growing pains are normal. But if you constantly feel anxious, confused, or like you’re the only one trying to fix things, that’s not “just a rough patch.” That’s a red flag. 🚩 …
