Midlife Aliveness Coach

Hatha Flow Yoga Classes, Workshops & Retreats
@ Grove & Childrey, Oxfordshire
Welcome.....
Yoga and coaching are both invitations back to yourself — back to your own rhythm, your body’s wisdom, your quiet inner knowing.
I first came to yoga seeking physical healing, but the practice soon became something deeper — a space where I could breathe again, listen inward, and begin to feel at home in myself. That journey opened the door to coaching, which helped me unpick the patterns that had kept me small, stuck, or silent for too long.
Now, I guide women through their own process of remembering — supporting them to gently peel back the layers of people-pleasing, perfectionism, and disconnection, and come home to who they truly are.
Whether we meet through mindful movement or deep conversation, my work is rooted in body-based wisdom, inner safety, and nature’s rhythms. I offer a grounded, compassionate space where you can finally stop overriding your needs and start listening inward — not by becoming someone else, but by returning to yourself.
I’m especially drawn to working with women who’ve always felt a bit out of place — those who are highly sensitive, deeply intuitive, or quietly carrying too much. If that’s you, you’re not broken. You don’t need fixing. And you don’t have to do this alone.
I am deeply grateful for the wisdom and guidance of my teachers, including Rebecca Walden, Harriet McAtee, Claire McPherson, Theo Wildcroft, Simran Uppal, Deborah Curtis, Jo Tastula and Jen Mills.

The Life You Don't Complain About
Coaching for high-achieving women in midlife
who are ready to move from a life that feels fine to one that feels fully alive. Learn to trust what you already know.
Your life works.
You've built a lot to be proud of. You're capable, dependable, and probably the person other people turn to.
Nothing is falling apart.
And yet, somewhere underneath it all, there's a thought you can't quite shake:
Surely I'm supposed to feel more alive than this?
You notice yourself wanting more freedom. More honesty. More space for the things that make you feel like you.
Then the familiar conversation begins.
I should be grateful.
It's fine.
Maybe I'm expecting too much.
Now isn't the right time.
The women I work with rarely need more answers.
They need to stop talking themselves out of what they already know.
That's where Unbraced begins.
Over 90 days, through reflective coaching, nervous-system awareness and somatic movement, we'll notice the everyday places you've learned to soften, adjust or override yourself.
And gradually, you'll begin trusting yourself enough to make different choices.
To say what you mean.
To include yourself in your own decisions.
To make room for what you actually want.
To move from a life that feels fine to one that feels fully alive.
If you've found yourself quietly wondering whether there could be more than this, you don't need to know what needs to change yet.
A conversation is enough.
We'll explore where you are, what you've been noticing, and whether Unbraced feels like the right next step.

A little bit of information about the Gong.........
The gong is a sacred and ancient instrument of healing, rejuvenation and transformation. It synthesises everything so that it comes into functional harmony. To heal is to make whole, so where there is functional harmony and holistic resonance, healing takes place naturally.
On a physical level, the gong releases tension and blocks in the body. It also works deeply on the mental, emotional and spiritual bodies, cleansing and quietening the mind.
