Life coach, vet, mum and wife.

I'm passionate about helping women find calm, clarity and confidence to make positive changes in their lives.

My mission is to help veterinary professionals, mums & busy women move from overwhelm to grounded, aligned living 💚

Using trauma-informed coaching to build calm, clarity, confidence & self-compassion

Including simple tools for nervous system reset, values-led change, shedding limiting beliefs, and finding your Ikigai.



You’re Not Alone

Veterinary professionals often carry a unique set of pressures. Ongoing stress, burnout, and emotional fatigue can leave you feeling stuck, overwhelmed, or disconnected from yourself.

If you’ve also become a parent too, you’ll be holding a lot. Your priorities may have shifted, and what once felt right might now feel misaligned. It’s natural to feel as though your career no longer fits in the same way.

Coaching gives you the tools and mindset shifts to:

  • Reconnect you with your values, strengths, and energy-givers

  • Explore what’s holding you back

  • Help you navigate the stress and chaos of modern day life

  • Move you towards your goals and aspirations

  • Feel calmer, more regulated, confident and like yourself again

Peace. Love. Joy. Making a Difference.

Being a vet and mum who has diversified into telemedicine and vet tech (currently working for Vet-AI as a veterinary developer with remote, flexible working), I have lived experience of this journey. 

I have been through matrescence twice and understand the challenges that we vets and women face in the profession and society. 

I feel passionate about normalising how this feels, to help women feel connected, self-compassionate and not alone on this journey. 

I plan to launch my Instagram page properly soon to share tips and ideas.
I offer 1:1 coaching over 3 packages:
  • Calm and Compassion Reset: 1 × 60 minute coaching call - £95
  • Calm & Clarity Package: 3 × 60-minute calls (over 1-3 months) - £250
  • Confidence & Calm Deep Dive: 6 × 60-minute coaching calls (over 3-6 months)
All packages include: Zoom calls, tailored tools, tips, journalling prompts to create achievable goals, habits and mindset shifts. Email support between sessions.
All coaching packages start with a 30-minute free discovery call.
Where to begin!

If you have a desire for change inside you, you must follow that intuition and that fire in your belly.

Starting by giving yourself time and space to breathe, reset and reflect is essential.

You need to get clear on what your values, energy givers and drainers are. What's most important to you in your life is not everyone else. Try to give up caring what other people think, and don't worry about people judging you. Let them (it's usually about them, not you anyway!)

You don't have to have it all figured out. Taking small actions will take you closer to your dreams, and the universe will help guide you.

There is no such thing as failure, just feedback. Everything you try is an important experiment.
