Work with me and I’ll share my superpowers with you, as long as you promise to use them for good.

My powers: compassion and clarity. This combination gives me a unique advantage, as I am able to design efficient, elegant solutions that never overlook the fact that we’re all just human. I find that when people know it’s safe to speak freely, the answers are quick to arrive.

Over more than a decade of working with a diverse range of individuals and organisations I’ve developed a simple but powerful process that will support you to develop your next strategic plan just as effectively as it will help us identify the yoga practice that will work for you.

My process:
- Diagnosing the issues at hand
- Facilitating the dialogue necessary for identifying solutions
- Implementing the processes and tools for lasting change

(All with a good dose of encouragement and humour!)

Getting Clarity. Getting Started

I can help you if you don’t yet know what your purpose is. That’s a great place to start. I can help you if you are overwhelmed by great ideas and big dreams and don’t know how to translate them into a career, or a project or a plan. I can help you if you are an organization that needs a kick-ass strategic plan, or an action plan to make it all actually happen. I can help if you need a fresh set of eyes on an old set of problems.

Thanks to years of legal training, I have a brain that chews up complex problems and spits out simple, powerful solutions. Whether you are an individual, an organization or a team, I can help you cut through the crap, identify the real issues and then decide exactly what it is you are going to do about them.

This is the place to find out about: strategic planning and project management for organisations; ‘Zen and the Art of Peacekeeping’ online workshops; and the ‘Yoga in Action’ courses I lead to help people clarify their purpose and find ways to make a difference in the world.

Getting the Word Out. Speaking Up. Telling Your Story.

I’m an advocate, a writer, a photographer and a storyteller. Advocacy is the art of speaking out on issues of concern in order to motivate people to make change. I can help you or your organization find your own stories and I can help you tell them.

This is all about getting the good word out there. Once you know what your unique gift to the world is going to be, I can work with you to make sure the world – or whichever corner of the world matters to you – knows about it. Once you have identified what it is in the world that you want to change, I can help you work out who can help you make that change and how you are going to convince them to help you.

Taking Care. Being Well. Thriving.

All this excuse-dissolving, problem-chewing and story-telling tends to lead to powerful changes. When I work with people or organizations they often end up with BIG exciting stuff going on. I know from my own experience how easy it is to get lost in all that excitement and forget to breath, eat or sleep. I can help with that too!

As a yoga teacher and wellness coach I can help you take better care of yourself or your staff, making sure that you are in the best shape you can be to do your thing in the world AND that you’ll all be around to celebrate when you’ve finished changing the world. It’s about making your life and your work sustainable.
