Often, it is the thought of being judged by others – or even being judged by ourselves – that hinders us thinking clearly and making decisions freely. This can span every facet of our lives and can impact us moving forward and developing. EN-spiring is about encouraging you to think freely in a space with no judgement and where you are inspired to listen to your intuition and instinct.
First and foremost, I am me - and then most importantly after that, I am a wife and mother, a daughter and sister and loyal friend. I am a self-employed life, parenting and youth coach with a diverse background. I have gained immense experience and knowledge from working in the corporate world and small owner run businesses for the last 20 years and most recently founded and ran my own playschool where I was informally coaching parents on a daily basis. I have coupled my love of children, their well-being and my experience working with parents and young adults to form a supportive, encouraging and inspiring space where one can come to reach their potential. I thoroughly enjoy facilitating people’s growth and realisation that they have all they need within them, to be who they truly want to be. Everything in our lives is connected - it is important that we are aware of all areas in our lives and give each one the attention it deserves. Key to our lives are relationships – and my main priority in my life is my family. Being a mindful mother and wife. It’s not easy – or possible – to get it right all the time in this crazy world we live in, but I try to keep coming back to the foundations, to stay grounded and build on from there.
There's no test we can take to check that we'll be ok parents - but it doesn't have to be as daunting and scary as you may think. Let's work through it together and give you some tips and tricks to guide you through the journey.
Often what we want to do and where we want to go, is right there in our minds, we just don't always know how to access it, or are too scared to act on the change. Coaching gives you the space to work through the options in a non-judgemental environment.
It's a crazy, manic world that we live in today. There are so many expectations on our children and young adults. Often they just need an objective pair of ears to listen to them and help them through these trying years.
We've heard it a million times - the only constant in life, is change. Change can be scary and unsettling. Let's work together to give you tools to get through it and help you take control of your life.
What we all strive for! Every facet of our lives is intertwined. Imbalance in one area can - and will - affect another area in one way or the other. Let's work on getting that balance back.
Relationships are complicated - they involve more than one person. It's ok to not get on sometimes, but letting it ruin the relationship shouldn't be the outcome. Coaching can help you work through breakdowns in communication or difficult patches and give you the skills to manage them moving forward.
Do we let every little thing that happens in our lives define us? I’m not sure. The things that happened to me and that I went through definitely were a part of the journey and led me to the place that I am at today, but I try very hard not to let them define who I am. When I think back to the person I was as a teenager, it barely feels like that person was me. Looking back, I wish I had someone to whom I could talk through the thoughts in my head that wasn’t going to judge my ideas and decisions and who could – objectively – offer options, ideas, guidance and a view on what waited for me beyond those school gates. My journey has been interesting, bumpy and unsettling at times, but I have met some incredible people along the way. I have experienced so many amazing things that this life has to offer and I’m happy with where I am now – and who I am now. Through all that I have learned, I have created this space to share my experiences, to facilitate workshops where people can come and get assistance from others in a similar boat and to hold one-on-one coaching sessions which are focussed and personalised.
