a quick story time
When I was young I loved tap dancing. At school my friends and I would put gold tacks in the bottom of our shoes so we’d make a clackety-clackety sound, as we moved our feet. It worked perfectly.
However you can imagine what happens when the tack landed in a worn-out part of the sole. Suddenly a strong ball-change becomes incredibly painful. The tack goes straight through the shoe and into your foot.
Painful af.
Now imagine if the suggestion was a plaster and a Panadol. Great in the meantime to dull the pain. But no amount of arnica was ever going to fix the actual problem.
You had to find and pull out the tack.
That’s the work we do together. We pinpoint, pun intended, what the tack is. Where it is. And then we figure out how to take it out. How to change.
Most women come to me feeling like there’s a million things to fix. Their relationship, or the lack thereof. How they feel about their body. Friction with family. No passion at work, or in the bedroom.
And they think they should be sorting this out alone. Or, how would they ever explain years of backstory in a single hour.
If any of that sounds familiar, your feelings are valid. Every one of them.
But, here’s what I want you to know. What we usually find when we work together is that underneath all of it, there’s a pattern. One or two things underpinning everything. We find what it is, focus there, and the rest starts to shift.
Because doing the same thing over and over, expecting a different result. That’s insanity.
Because quitting the job, or leaving the partner may help in the meantime. But everywhere you go, there you are.
Just know there is hope, plenty of it. And you’re worthy of support, and a really really rich life. However that looks like for you.
Wherever you are, you’re in the right place.
Some women start with a journal in the quiet gaps of life.
Some book a call because they’re tired of going around and around in circles.
Some are ready to commit to a season of change.
All of them are the perfect place to start.
You know something needs to shift, but you can’t quite name what.
You’re good at showing up for everyone else, just not always yourself.
You’ve built a life that looks full, but something isn’t sitting right.
You ready to do something different?
If something in you is saying yes.
trust that.
One hour. One conversation.
An hour together to look at what’s actually going on. We slow down, get under the surface and you leave with one or two real next steps. No big commitment, but enough time to be heard and held.
It’s a good fit if you’re navigating something specific, feeling stuck but not sure why, or just want to get a sense of what working together feels like before going deeper.

For almost a decade, I’ve sat with women navigating life’s hardest seasons. I’ve been coaching since 2016, with training in psychotherapy (postgraduate diploma), coaching, mindfulness facilitation and yoga teaching. I pull from all of it.
I’m also a mum, a partner, a friend, a gemini and a lover of romance novels.
Thanks for being here. I hope to support you soon.
No. I’m a life coach, not a therapist or psychologist. I have a post graduate diploma in psychotherapy, so I align myself with many of those practices. The work is therapy-informed, drawing on psychodynamic thinking and nervous system awareness, but it’s coaching.
Please note: I don’t work with individuals experiencing severe mental or physical health issues. If that may be you, I encourage you to reach out to a registered psychotherapist or consult your GP to find the right support. If you are in urgent need, please contact Lifeline on 0800 543 354.
No. Plenty of women come because something feels off, not because anything is obviously wrong. You don’t need a crisis or a perfectly articulated problem to start.
If you’re navigating something specific and want to try working together, the clarity call is a good place to start. If you already know you’re ready for sustained work over a season, the coaching season is for you. When in doubt, book the call. We can talk about what fits.
All 1:1 sessions are online over video. I’m in Auckland but work with women across NZ, Australia, and the wider world.
That’s a really common feeling. You don’t need to be 100% sure or have it all figured out. Most women aren’t, when they book. A clarity call is the lightest way to test what it feels like. The hardest part is booking.
You’re always welcome to reach out by email during business hours if you have questions between our sessions. While I don’t offer ongoing voice or text support outside of our calls, know that this boundary is intentional. My role is to hold a safe space each week and to support you in building trust in your own wisdom. If at any point you need immediate support, please contact Lifeline on 0800 543 354.
Yes, for the coaching season. Get in touch and we’ll work something out that suits.
The silliest question is the one you don’t ask.
Ask away.
