When I graduated from college in the 90s, jobs were thin on the ground. I knew I wanted to work for non-profits in the communications area, but what I fell into was fundraising. And while I was passionate about the causes, and appreciated the need for my role, I hated it.

At 30 I moved into corporate sponsorship, working for Ireland's leading mobile telecoms company at the time. It was a dynamic company with a youngish workforce, and for the first couple of years I loved it.

from charity fundraiser to interior designer, and everything in between.

A little about me....

After a global buy-out of our company the culture changed rapidly and I started to become disillusioned. I was scratching my head wondering what my next career move might be, and I read a book called "Be your own Life Coach" in the hope it would help me figure out my future path.

I never did finish that book, but the outlook and attitude of the author, Fiona Harrold, had a huge impression on me. With my not-so-positive outlook on life, I wished I could adopt hers. I remember thinking, in order to maintain that kind of mindset I'd need to work as a life coach myself. But I was deeply resistant to the idea of retraining at the time.

Then, as if Infinite Spirit herself was giving me a push, I had a difficult experience at work and I hired a life coach to guide me in a new direction. In the course of those sessions I became excited about the prospect of retraining, and winded up becoming a life coach after all.

That journey transformed me. The training opened my mind and my curiosity about all things spiritual in a completely unexpected way.

by nature, I was skeptical, critical, anxious, socially aware and conscientious.

If you had told a younger version of me that I would become a daily meditator, she would have laughed at you. But the mid-30s, life-coach version of me kept reading about the benefits and I wanted to experience them.

To be completely honest, when I first tried it, I was chasing the spiritual benefits - the all-elusive concept of enlightenment.

I've long since stopped chasing that. The reason I still meditate daily is because of the benefits I experience in my mental, physical and emotional wellbeing. Headaches, indigestion, constipation, psoriasis, restless leg and more all quietly went away. And my previously short fuse became much longer.

Through a series of synchronicities I also ended up training to be a teacher, and was certified in 2009.


the lure of meditation

My interior design journey first started in 2003, when I bought my own little house. My friends were so impressed by the changes I made that some of them suggested I train as an interior designer. And I was pretty obsessed, to be fair.

But I wasn't keen on the idea of study at the time....this was before I worked with my life coach. In the years in between, after retraining twice, I came to realise that I will probably never be done with the learning.

In 2019 I finally allowed myself to study interior design. Initially it was for my own interest, rather than as a career move. But of course I loved it so much that I just had to work in it too. And with my coaching and meditation background, I knew from the outset that I wanted to take a holistic wellbeing approach.
