ABOUT

I’m not at all interested in the feverish pursuit of purpose-hunting, but what I do find intriguing is how small moments in our lives can lead to where we are today. Throughout my life, there have been two things that have guided my decisions, the first is my adoration for words and the second is my curiosity about the human experience. Even when I didn’t know why I was making seemingly random choices, like nearly studying to become a forensic psychologist or writing about the lives of women in wartime Britain. My things (words and humans) were always there. They were there when I started my fashion degree which kickstarted a 13-year journey working in creative and cultural industries. From London to New York City, I was fascinated not by fashion and beauty itself, but the philosophical, social, cultural and historical context of it all. Working in museum collections, archives, fashion brands and magazines, I got to both write and relate it to what it means to be human. 


Sadly, it took a toll working in an industry that was fuelled on overworking, microaggressions and just silly behaviour. I lost myself and gained constant panic attacks. But my spiritual and wellbeing practices reminded me that there was more to life and led to my next steps. As a wellbeing guide and workshop facilitator, I worked with nearly a thousand people spanning the breadth from 18 months old to 80 years old, from London to Bahrain, Melbourne to Toronto and Mumbai to Krugersdorp. After shifting out of one-to-one sessions in 2022, I feel very blessed that the two loves that have guided all of my decisions, have found a beautiful meeting place. My romance with words now exists in my writing, through my book, newsletter and collecting other people's stories, as well as in my speaking engagements.
