This is who I am in the world – a woman, a conscious thought leader and advocate for compassion,

creativity and self-expression. As an artist I explore my creation life force with wonder, openness

and gratitude. As I writer I challenge my perspective of the world through my words. As a wife I

always come back to gratitude for my partnership. Being independent and in flow with another is a

journey of humility, self-respect and unconditional love - a dance of movement and stillness. As a

mother I feel abundant in the overflowing love received from my children. Receiving is sometimes

difficult to acknowledge, I prefer to be a giver, but when they are equal and balanced my world is

simply beautiful and inspiring. As a conscious leader, not above any other woman, but conscious in

the sense of thinking and then take action, I lead from the heart. I continue to work on myself for my

most authentic alignment and re-alignment of my values in giving back to the world. I love working

with women so that they can also see themselves as inspiring, wise, and indeed whole and

magnificent no matter their status.

I have been through one of the worst things a mother and wife could have gone through – a tragic

freak totally unexpected accident, the unimaginable death of one of my four children. Guy died after

being in a coma having suffered an initial head trauma, and then a secondary accident that led to

severe brain damage, and finally his death five and a half months later. He was 22 years of age when

he passed – so young with so much life to live, but it was just not meant to be. I am a woman who

has lived and learnt from the ever-present faces of grief, continually navigating the highs, lows,

layers and breakthroughs of change, acceptance, love and loss.

The story I wish to re-write for women is that any lived pain, loss, grief, or setback is not something

to hide away from, be ashamed of or not be able to talk about from a place of empowerment. It is in

fact a beacon for all. Each lived experience is a new breath of life. There does not have to be a place

of fear, of isolation or judgement, it can indeed come from a place of light rather than our shadows

of darkness. The monument created by each light is not created from grief, it comes from a place of

resilience and heart. It comes from speaking your truth, from sharing your expansion of your light,

your courage and creativity and your gifts and from your love, passion and wisdom.

The story I want to write for myself is my next chapter, and then the next, until I have enough

material for my second book. I am currently in the editing stage of my first book. The book is about

loss and gain, about death and grief, but mostly about life – a creative, colourful life of experience

and personal evolution. I wish to inspire others through my written and spoken word and through

group embodied workshops and other environments. Our journey is not over when we leave our

physical body, our journey of love continues forever. Our life’s experience is seeing beyond the veil

and bringing it all into focus by creating a more loving and empowered life. I used to be terrified of

death and in the action of dying, but that has changed due to my experiences, all the soul searching I

have done, the channelled wisdom I have received and my own intuition that I have refined. With

the loss of my son, then my father at the end of last year, I am finally feeling the true connection,

and this is the story and the journey I am re-writing each day as I evolve and grow.
