Looking back over my adult working life I have consistently been drawn to positions which focus on the facilitation of change and helping people. I have been lucky in that I have gained experience in a wide spectrum of settings from statutory to voluntary and business sectors as well as working with individuals on a 1:1 basis. These include working for and alongside County Councils, Legal Sectors, NHS, Youth Offending Teams, Small Businesses and Professionals, Domestic Violence Groups, Mental Health Services, etc.

Much of the work I did within various (and often changing) roles could now be considered my own journey of discovery. Whether I consider my aims and objectives in studying a law degree, my time spent working with young people and socially exluded groups, or my later work and studies in holistic therapies, I have primarily sought to 'help' people or 'give' on some level.

I am often asked how did I decide to become a life coach and mentor ? I no longer believe that I chose IT, the drive to assist others to facilitate change and find clarity and reach their true potential seems to have chosen me!

I have designed and delivered programmes for change within the Youth Justice System and have worked both in the community and secure estate with young people and their families.

I now run a business mastermind within Staffordshire and deliver learning points to help support and encourage other entrepreneurs on their journey as well as working on a 1:1 with clients and within my online group courses helping others achieve success, by focusing on clarity, confidence and taking action
