Experience & Practice
I have been lucky to teach and facilitate individuals and groups in a variety of settings, from Canary Wharf to rural woodland retreats, and online. I’m resourced with a consultative, coaching and deeply practical skill set that works across sectors, with people at all ages and stages of their life’s journey. I know this rubs up against the marketing trend of having a "niche clientele", but I'm genuinely quite happy about that!
