And for years, it felt like I was juggling everything at once without a moment to breathe.
As a mother of four, I poured all my energy into being the best mum, partner, and person I could be. But life didn’t make it easy. Our family faced constant health challenges—from allergies and undiagnosed eye conditions to teeth and breathing issues. On top of that were the endless cycles of school and social pressures to navigate, a period of homeschooling, the challenges of COVID, and the daily struggle to support everyone while barely holding myself together. Slowly, I began to unravel.
The weight only grew heavier. We were building a house, renting, selling, and moving—over and over again. Each transition felt like a fresh layer of stress, another demand added to an already overflowing plate. I tried to keep it all together—for my kids, my husband, and myself—but the cracks were widening. I could see my patterns of overwhelm, anxiety and perfectionism showing up in my children, and the connection with my husband began to slip away under the strain of it all.
I was burned out, caught in a cycle of anxious thoughts and constant pressure to deliver, while my body carried an exhaustion I didn’t know how to name. My mind raced with worries about everything—my kids’ health, their happiness, and whether I was enough. I thought the only way forward was to push through, but deep down, I knew something had to change.
That’s when I found somatic practices. They didn’t promise to fix everything, but they offered me a way to pause, to notice, and to listen. Slowly, I began to uncover the emotions I’d buried and the tension I’d been carrying for years. Piece by piece, I started to reconnect—with myself, my children, and even my husband. For the first time in years, I began to feel like I could breathe again.
Dance has always been a language for me—a way to express what words couldn’t. Becoming a qualified dance movement therapist allowed me to guide others in using movement as a tool for healing and connection.
TRE taught me how the body holds tension and trauma and, more importantly, how to release it safely. This method has become a cornerstone of the work I do with clients to help them find ease and release.
Teaching yoga and breathwork gave me tools to help others regulate their nervous systems and create a foundation for calm and balance in their lives.
Somatic meditation brings together stillness and awareness, creating a space for clients to reconnect with themselves and process their emotions in a supportive way.
I didn’t pursue these qualifications because I wanted a career—I sought them because they saved me. Each one gave me another piece of the puzzle I was trying to solve for myself.
They taught me how to process emotions, release tension, and rediscover the connection between my body and mind.
Now, this work is my mission. I know how life-changing it can be to feel at home in your own body again, and I want to share that with you. Every session I lead is rooted in the belief that you have everything you need inside you—it’s just about finding your way back to it.
This work isn’t just my passion; it’s my purpose. Helping women like you reconnect, rediscover, and thrive is what drives me every single day.
These are the key elements of how you should experience Somaglow while working with me.
Connection is the foundation of SomaGlow. It’s about recognising that the mind and body are not separate but one unified whole. This value invites you to rediscover the bond within yourself, allowing for deeper self-trust, balance and the freedom to be fully present in your life.
Safety is a commitment to creating a space where you can bring all of yourself—your fears, emotions, your lows and your highs—without fear of judgement. It’s about feeling supported and held as you explore what it means to grow and heal in your own time and way.
Clarity is the moment when you begin to hear the messages your body has been sending all along. This value is about tuning into those signals, learning to understand them, and finding the confidence to act with purpose and intention in your life.
Empowerment is the process of reclaiming your voice, your choices, and your strength. This value encourages you to embrace practical tools and practices that guide you toward living authentically, with the confidence to navigate life’s challenges on your terms.
This is your time to reconnect—to yourself, your emotions, and your body. Together, we’ll create a space where you can feel supported to take the steps towards taking back control of your life.
If this feels like the right step for you, I’m here to support you.
