Reinvention Coach, Leadership Mentor & Retreat Host for
Midlife Women who want to reset, refocus and reinvent their lives.  

But, before we dive into my story, let’s start with you.

You’ve spent years holding everyone else together — a partner,
a family, a career, a life - while quietly unravelling inside.


You used to feel powerful, expressive, creative, alive.
But somewhere along the way, you dimmed.



You gave your heart, your time, your energy, your potential…
until there was nothing left for you.


Midlife. Mid-transition. Mid-reinvention — wondering:

You used to feel powerful, expressive, creative, alive. But somewhere along the way, you dimmed.




You gave your heart, your time, your energy, your potential…
until there was nothing left for you.


Midlife. Mid-transition. Mid-reinvention — wondering:

You’re a brilliant, capable, deeply feeling woman who has carried far too much for far too long.

Who am I now?

Who do I want to become?

And how do I even begin?

You used to know who you were.

You made yourself smaller to keep the peace.


Now you find yourself here

Maybe you’re divorced.
Maybe you’re burned out.
Maybe you’re recovering from trauma, a health crisis, or a lifetime of being the strong one.


Or maybe you’ve woken up one day and realised the life you’re living no longer feels like your own.

You want clarity.
You want confidence.

You want to remember the woman you were before the world told you who to be.

And more than anything?
You want to come home to yourself.

If you feel seen in these words…
You’re exactly where you’re meant to be.

You want clarity.
You want confidence.
 You want to remember the woman you were before the world told you who to be.

So Who Am I?

I am a woman who has lived many lives - corporate leader, expat wife living in Dubai, mother, daughter, friend, advocate, artist, survivor, and now a guide for women rising from the ashes of their own reinvention.
Before I ever held space for others, I spent more than 25 years building a successful career across FTSE 100 companies and global organisations. From a career at the London Stock Exchange, Accenture and global finance houses, I lived a decade in the Middle East, married to a man at the top of a Fortune 500 firm, surrounded by privilege, pressure, and a life that looked enviable from the outside but felt increasingly hollow on the inside. 

My life split open during a long, acrimonious divorce that dismantled everything I thought was secure. Emotionally and psychologically, it was a devastation that left me standing in the ashes of the life I had built. I returned to the UK with my three children and had to begin again - no home, a fractured career, and no co-parenting support. As a single mother, I rebuilt our world piece by piece, creating a home that felt safe, a life that felt true, and a successful business. 

I know what it means to wear the polished façade

and smile while you're silently crumbling.

I know what it means to have everything taken away 

and have to start over from scratch.

And I know what it means to lose your identity in roles that once felt powerful 

- wife, mother, professional - only to one day realise you no longer know who you are without them.

But my story doesn’t just live in boardrooms or relocation boxes.

It lives inside my body.

For decades, I battled with disordered eating - bulimia, yo-yo dieting, punishing cycles of losing and gaining extreme amounts of weight. I chased perfection, worthiness, thinness, approval - believing that if I could control my body, I could control my life.


My self-esteem, body image, and identity were built on shaky foundations, and depression followed me like a shadow.

I have lived inside the war between self-loathing and self-preservation.
I have clawed my way back from exhaustion, anxiety, burnout, and the quiet despair of believing “I’m not enough.”

And I’ve risen - not by pretending it didn’t happen, but by learning from every single chapter.


And I’ve risen - not by pretending it didn’t happen, but by learning from every single chapter.

And I’ve risen - not by pretending it didn’t happen, but by learning from every single chapter.

You see, there was once a moment in my youth when a different future whispered to me.


I had a professional path opening as an opera singer — talent, opportunity, possibility — but my imposter syndrome was louder than my potential. 

I turned away from a stage that was waiting for me, because I did not yet know how to stand in my own worth.

That’s what self-doubt does.
 It steals futures.


And that’s why I do this work - to stop it stealing yours.

My reinvention began long before my divorce.


It began in the quiet, painful moments when I realised, I couldn’t diet my way to peace, overwork my way to belonging, or perform my way into worthiness.

It began the day I decided to heal - for myself, for my children, for the woman I knew I could become.

Today, I am a renowned internationally accredited Reinvention Coach for midlife women who are experiencing divorce, painful breakups, loss of identity from a huge career change, health issues.

With almost a decade of professional coaching experience, I’ve trained in:

I am also completing my MSc in Applied Positive Psychology & Coaching Psychology because evidence-based transformation matters to me as much as empathy does.
