HERE I AM...

"I’ve always been a work addict. Overworking, constant stress, and perfectionism have been my biggest battles, often pushing me into burnout—or worse, into hurting myself. I used to justify it with lines like, “That’s just how it is when you’re building a business” or “This is only temporary.” But the truth is, those “temporary” seasons of stress stretched into months.

It wasn’t until I finally reached out to Alex, my coach, that I began to find my way back. For a long time, I carried deep shame—how could I call myself a mental health coach if I couldn’t even lift myself out of chronic stress? But the reality is, when you’re in that state, the brain doesn’t function rationally. Poor sleep, hormonal imbalances, constant inflammation, and the relentless inner critic make it nearly impossible to self-regulate. That’s why having a coach is so essential. Alone, you might survive the storm—but with guidance, thriving becomes possible. And once the storm clears, the view is breathtaking.

Beyond coaching, I also co-own a farm-to-table restaurant with my partner. That part of my life keeps me deeply connected to nature and our community. Through permaculture, I’ve designed a lifestyle that allows space for multiple passions. This balance fuels my curiosity, growth, and alignment with my values.

Still, coaching remains the most intimate and rewarding piece of my work. It demands my full presence and, in return, gives me profound fulfilment. Every client’s victory feels like my own, and it’s an honour to be entrusted with someone’s journey through life’s rougher passages".
