I was born in Fiji and raised in New Zealand, and for more than three decades my life and work have taken me around the world through wellness, healing, spirituality and human connection.
Much of my professional and spiritual journey unfolded while living and working throughout Asia. Alongside my international career in spa and wellness, I immersed myself in meditation, mindfulness, energy and vibrational practices, spending time with monks and in temples and exploring consciousness and spiritual wellbeing.
Over time, these experiences became more than practices I had learned. They shaped the way I understood wellbeing and our relationship with ourselves.
I came to understand us as four interconnected parts — physical, emotional, mental and spiritual. Much of my work is about helping people develop a relationship with all four, learning to listen to themselves as a whole person rather than simply responding to whichever part is speaking the loudest.
My own life has also been one of my greatest teachers.
I went to boarding school at five years old, and long before I knew the language of inner-child work, I began to understand how our earliest experiences can remain with us and quietly influence our feelings, beliefs, relationships and choices as adults.
My journey has also taken me through love, loss, grief, family, change, resilience and beginning again. Through these experiences, meditation, mindfulness, energy work and spiritual connection became not simply things I practised, but ways of continually finding my way home to myself.
Over many years I have developed a deep relationship with what I call our own language of knowing.
For me, this can come through intuition, signs and synchronicities, dreams, energy, messages through the body or simply a quiet inner knowing. I don’t believe there is one correct way to experience spiritual connection, nor does everything need to be immediately understood or interpreted.
Sometimes the deeper practice is simply learning how to listen.
I also believe being sensitive to another person’s energy doesn’t mean we have to absorb it. Grounding and energy awareness can help us recognise our own energy, inhabit our own space and return to ourselves.
The Compassion Key felt like a natural continuation of this journey. It gave me another beautiful way of meeting the layers we carry — particularly emotional wounds, protective patterns and younger parts of ourselves — with compassion.
Today I bring together more than 30 years of experience in holistic wellness with meditation, mindfulness, energy awareness, intention, spiritual connection and The Compassion Key.
I believe you hold your answers within you.
My role is to create a compassionate space where you can gently explore the layers that may be standing between you and your own inner knowing.
You reconnect.
You remember.
You come home.
At the heart of my own life and work is an intention I continually return to:
If I come back to my intention, and my intention comes from my heart, I am strong and at peace.
Everything you are seeking is within you.
Come back to your intention.
Come back to your heart.
Come back to yourself.
