Living the life you truly want it is not a pipe-dream, it’s a real outcome of doing this work.

All of us have unlimited potential, but to tap into it, we first need to learn to connect back to ourselves.

I’ve had some pretty traumatic and challenging experiences in my own life including nearly losing my twin brother to drug addiction and everything that comes with that, the heartbreak of ending long term relationships, a massive career change as well as my fair share of fuck up’s. I’ve sat with painful lessons and persevered with insanely uncomfortable emotions. I’ve been caught up in overthinking, feeling depressed, anxious, indecisive and at times, I’ve questioned my decisions and abilities.

It was a no brainer really, so I chose to make a change. I owned my shit, even when I didn’t want to. I made decisions that were initially uncomfortable, but with the faith that sometimes, our heart knows what our mind can’t always comprehend. I faced all my fears, one by one, until they no longer existed. Two fears that were huge for me included public speaking and spending time alone. I challenged every limiting belief I could find and transformed them into ones that empower and inspire me to keep consciously creating the life I wanted to create. I dug deeper to find purpose and happiness within my own life. I found myself emerged in my own personal development, devouring endless podcasts, at least 100 books and every seminar on personal development, philosophy, neurophysiology and quantum physics that I could find.

I first nailed it at shifting limiting beliefs during my third year as a High School Teacher.

Using the techniques I learnt, I shifted the belief that I wasn’t smart enough, to believing that I can learn anything I choose to focus on. Shortly after, things began to change. I went from solely teaching Health and PE, to teaching Science, Human Biology, Biology, Extension Chemistry and Physics. In my fourth year, I became a Year Coordinator and overcame an intense fear of public speaking by MC’ing Year 12 graduation ceremony in front of over 1,600 people.

In my fifth and final year of full time teaching, juggling work with my passion, I completed an Advanced Diploma in Life Coaching, mastering in NLP (Neuro Linguistic Programing) which is basically rewiring or re-programing the brain using language patterns and conscious hypnosis.

I now run a successful business as a transformational coach and speaker, and am the Founder of Empowering Pathways, personal development workshops for teachers and students in schools.
