I've always felt a little lost on my journey — never quite sure if what I was doing was what I was meant to be doing. For years, I carried a lingering sense of purposelessness and self-doubt.

I’ve worked in many different roles — from running kitchens and working in cafés, to sitting in call centres, teaching and running my own cleaning business. Yet through it all, I couldn’t shake the feeling that I wasn’t living up to my full potential.

My life hasn’t been without challenges. I grew up in a single parent family, as the oldest child, and often being placed into a role that was perhaps beyond my years.  I've also experienced trauma in childhood and lost a close friend in my early twenties — experiences that shaped me deeply. In 2020, I realised that what I’d been living with for so long was actually low mood and depression. I had always thought it was just circumstantial, but in truth, it was something more.

My self-development journey began after a difficult but honest conversation with a friend helped me see how my depression was affecting not only me but those around me. That moment was a turning point. I began looking inward, especially while living abroad in Spain during the pandemic, and started to truly understand myself for the first time.

Through this process, I discovered that my biggest struggles were around self-belief, confidence, and purpose. Working with coaches helped me learn to be kinder to myself — and it sparked something powerful within me. I realised that coaching wasn’t just something that had helped me; it was something I wanted to do for others.

After completing my coaching training, I now know that my purpose is to help people who have felt the same way I once did — those who feel lost, unworthy, or unsure of their direction — to reconnect with their confidence, self-belief, and purpose.
