I believe we’re living through necessary times of rupture and reimagining.

My Story

I've been coaching and mentoring for over twenty years. I work from a trauma-informed, somatically grounded approach.

I came to flow from two directions, neither of them peak performance.

The first: a midlife of intensity, change and existential searching that needed - urgently - a new framework for how I was going to live into a new future. The second: a lifelong spiritual emergence that had little language in the culture I lived in, unless I was prepared to go new age or religious, neither of which felt honest for me.

I had spent twenty five years in every tradition I could find, including a dark night of the soul where I felt outside of all of it. I wanted what Emerson called an original relation to the universe - direct revelation, not a record of it. But I wanted it with rigour. I saw my spirituality as a kind of jazz mysticism: I had the influences and the improvisation, but I needed to go back and learn my scales.

That rigour arrived in a Zoom room, in pink pyjamas, my dog's head on my lap (we were both having a rough time), surrounded by CEOs and gym bros at my first Flow Research Collective training. I was looking for the practical architecture for what I'd always known intuitively: that expanded consciousness, effortless action, and deep aliveness are not the privilege of monks and mystics. They are everyone's birthright.

The two directions turned out to be two sides of the same coin. An old Tibetan teaching is to use everything. The chaos and the search. The dark night and the radiant grace. The wound and the wisdom. Nothing wasted. Everything, eventually, the same work and the same wonder.

I live in East Sussex, UK, with my husband, stepdaughter, and menagerie.
