About Me

I am a sister, daughter, wife, lover, friend, wolf, monkey, lion, otter

A mama to bunnies and two sweet wild kittens

I love to hold gentle loving space that is soft

and I love to learn what's underneath

I love to dance and eat delicious food 

I love being with others and I love being alone. I never used to, so have pleasure and pride in that

I really love to play and goof around and sling myself over friends sofas and talk past bed time

I'm from Scotland and at times miss home a lot. I'm connecting up these distanced parts. Some ways I love to do that are through nature, play, dance, reading. I just finished journeying with the book Women Who Run With The Wolves by Clarissa Pinkola Estes and a group of women and am so glad I did. I love myths, fairy tales and circling together to share stories and join dots 

For the past 5+ years I've been falling in love with my menstrual cycle - learning and connecting with myself, my womb and living in sync with the moon phases and inner and outer seasons. This work has changed me and how I live my life.

​

My background is in Occupational Therapy and I was an OT in Scotland for several years before diving deeper into yoga, massage bodywork, coaching and somatic experiencing. All of which have supported and molded me. 

​​

Before Somatic Experiencing I still had real difficulty bouncing between states of anxiety and depression. My window of tolerance for feeling different things was pretty tiny, so I'd fly off the handle into a rage or anxiety, or get stuck in a depressive, numb void. Big parts of my childhood were heartbreaking and scary at times and those experiences imprint. Thankfully, through somatic work I have been able to work through much of my "stuff" and start riding the waves with more grace and ease, and even fun!
