Full Bio

For years, I struggled with depression and chronic asthma. It was a dark time in my life, and I felt like there was no way out. The asthma made it hard to breathe, and the depression made it hard to find any joy in life. It was a constant battle, and I felt like I was losing.

And in 2010, I hit rock bottom. I tried to take my own life in a drug induced psychosis. Emergency services found me lying unconscious, I was hanging on a thin thread.

Fortunately, my time wasn’t up yet. 

Through therapy, I learned to manage my depression and suicidal thoughts. It wasn't easy, and there were setbacks along the way, but I kept going. As I got better, I started to focus on my physical and mental health.

I realised that my asthma was being aggravated by my poor lifestyle habits. I started to train intentionally. And although I made a switch from high animal protein to a plant-based diet, my respiratory health still impaired me. It was only until I relearned how to breathe, did I finally get off my medication and have been drug free for years. What used to be my weakness is now my strength.

Doing the inner work and prioritising my mental and physical health, it became  my mission to be a disciple of my personal development and growth to overcome the void I felt, to become more. 

My journey brought me to becoming a licensed Unbeatable Mind Coach learning from former Navy Seal Commander Mark Divine, certified as a Neuro Linguistic Programming Trainer, Master Ericksonian Hypnotherapist that now specialises in Breath work, Plant-Focussed Nutrition and Lifestyle Optimisation. 

I am grateful for the journey that brought me to where I am today. I have a newfound appreciation for life, and I want to use my experiences to help others find healing, courage and strength.
