I’m a mum to two beautiful girls, we live by the sea with my husband and our two cats named Albus & Griffin. I’m a Transformational Life Coach, massage therapist and aromatherapist. I run masterclasses and events on how to use essential oils, and do 1:1 coaching either in person or online to help people move forward in life.
For both emotional and physical well being,I help people feel more in control of daily life.
My holistic journey
My holistic journey was the start of a transformation from a busy and stressed out mama to a more balanced, mindful, connected and aware mother to my two girls. I’ve been practicing yoga & meditation since 2011 and since been on a spiritual path of discovery. I’m growing & learning, there’s always space for improvement and I’m human just like anyone. Now I have learnt tools to help me balance, cope & succeed in day to day life, and this is what I share to help others.
Along with my passion for French Aromatherapy my studies have prompted research into toxin free products, toxin free lifestyle and eco living. Noticing the scale of waste in our modern lives and knowing I can make a difference has become bigger and more in the forefront of my mind!






I was a receptionist and then Private PA to an investor and entrepreneur. I suffered with intense migraines, struggled with managing stress, debts, and the daily school run. I barely had time for my little girl and had a new one on the way when my boss and his wife decided to move area so things were about to change again. I had my children and then 2017 was a year of change.
Frazzled mum
I eyed up Neals Yard because it looked a respectable sideline job, good quality and it seemed like flexible working but was disappointed they’re labelled organic yet not 100% pure. The start up seemed okay but I wasn’t sure. Around that time a mum at school heard me mentioning my baby had an unexplained rash Dr’s were baffled over and not very helpful with and she suggested using essential oils and I basically said no thanks to the hippy oils because I didn’t think they would work.
I was wrong.
After 6 months of seeing 7 different GP’s and 1 dermatologist, my little one still had an awful ugly rash on her legs. Doctors said don’t worry about it but it looked angry and red. The dermatologist told me we should not be using long term any of the creams we had been prescribed in bulk- due to a connection with renal failure!! I was pretty angry so started looking at toxin free products. There I discovered a minefield and hundred of baby items and household products are not actually safe or pure for anyone to use!
Magic oils
I found Emily at school and said okay I give in, let me try some of these oils. She gave me 2 tiny samples of Wild Orange & Peppermint the next morning for the online class. That evening I logged in to see what the fuss was about and during that class tried 1 drop of each, in my hands, rubbed together and inhaled…
In one split second it was like an explosion in my head.
The tension I’d had behind my eye, released and disappeared. Instantly. I was in shock. I couldn’t believe I’d had pain for 3 days straight. In 2 seconds these little oils had changed my life. I was needed them – and I wanted to know why and HOW did I not know about these before?! I was couldn’t believe it and just kept thinking I have to tell people about this!!! The next week I said to Emily I need to do this as a job. The rest as you say is history.


Life changed
My baby’s rash then disappeared completely within 2 weeks of using a combination of essential oils. It was incredible, and to this date I do not suffer with the discomfort or tension issues I had before. I have control over stresses and wellbeing so much more! Life changing 💯.
I’m now a certified doTERRA Essential Oil Specialist, an internationally accredited certified Emotional Aromatherapy Advisor, certified in AromaTouch Technique & practicing Aromatherapist. I’m a continuing student of French Aromatherapy and have interest in Clinical Aromatherapy. I’m qualified as a massage therapist and meditate every day. I opened The Wellbeing Studio Bexhill with my sister where we have over 250 clients, 750+ oils customers and are still growing.
I love expanding my qualifications, gaining new skills and certifications. I realise my strengths, weaknesses and work to grow with both. Coaching opened my eyes to what I could achieve and now I helped others remove limiting beliefs and mindset blocks- all the while incorporating essential oils in the journey.

One of my favourite things is collaboration with other specialists- yoga teachers, holistic therapists, baby massage teachers, beauticians, teachers, mums and people from many practices.
