Like many of us, the path to where I am now wasn’t a straight line.
Around 25 years ago, while working at Elemis HQ in an operational role, the company offered me the chance to train in holistic therapies… and I jumped at it. I loved it so much that I took a secondment and spent three incredible years at the Elemis Day Spa on New Bond Street, treating celebrity clients and living the spa-life dream.
But behind the scenes, something didn’t feel right.
The pressure to sell products… the league tables… the conveyor belt of clients with barely a breath in between. I adored helping people relax — I didn’t love the industry machine. Slowly, I fell out of love with it all.
So I put my corporate mask back on.
I returned to the office world, appearing super-organised, efficient, “on it”… and for a while, that worked. But underneath it all, I felt disconnected — boxed in, uncreative, longing for freedom and purpose. Then came marriage, motherhood, and all the beautiful chaos that brings, so big changes stayed on hold.
Everything shifted three years ago during the week I sat with my mum in the hospice during her final days.
Life suddenly distilled down to what really matters.
I realised how finite our time is — about 4,000 weeks if we’re lucky — and I knew it was time to come home to myself.
So I did.
I undertook more Reiki training and Meditation Teacher and Coaching Training, and slowly built a life and career that finally felt aligned. I love supporting others and showing how both consistent Meditation practise and Reiki treatments can help rewire the nervous system, create better mind-body awareness, process emotions more calmly, improve sleep, promote mental clarity and help regulate the stress response.
Over the past four years, I’ve been steadily growing my specialist Meditation, Reiki and Holistic Business.
I’m based on the North Hertfordshire and South Cambridgeshire border and offer 121 Meditation Courses & Coaching, Reiki & treatments and holistic therapies and Professional Reiki Training at my cosy Wellness Room in Steeple Morden or online.
