Turning Over a New Leaf in 2025


Hello Reader,

Welcome to 2025, my life fully loved readers, a time of intention setting, a time to turn over a new leaf.

My vision is to create a kinder, more compassionate world. As a coach, I want to help people connect with themselves on a deeper level and with others, so they can make the positive changes they want to see around them, as Gandhi suggested.

It may not surprise you to hear, then, that my core values are connection and kindness ... but there's a third as well - curiosity.

And if you're curious like me, you may want some tools to do some professional and personal exploration as you move into 2025.

Personal Growth

You'll learn how to get off the hamster wheel of your future self and the wagon wheel of your past self and instead find ways to get present because, ultimately, that's where the answers lie.

Those of you looking for more fulfilment in life can gain clear direction through my straightforward guide on this topic.
