My Story

The experiences, choices and spiritual journey that have shaped the woman I am and the work I do today.

I believe every woman deserves to know who she is beyond the roles she fulfils, the expectations she carries and the responsibilities that shape her everyday life. She deserves to recognise her own worth, honour her needs and have the freedom to make meaningful choices about how she wants to live.

That belief is at the heart of Sacred Reclamation. It has been shaped by my professional experience, the challenges and turning points of my own life, and a deeply personal spiritual path that continues to influence how I see and experience the world.

I Arrived Here the Long Way Round

For more than seventeen years, I worked in further and higher education, building a career that involved management, leadership, administration, quality assurance and supporting the development of others. I held positions of considerable responsibility, developed a wide range of professional skills and took pride in being capable, committed and dependable.

But somewhere along the way, I began to lose sight of myself beneath the demands of my working life. Achievement, responsibility and meeting expectations had become so central to my identity that I was no longer paying sufficient attention to what I needed, how I felt or whether the life I was living was right for me.

I experienced two breakdowns, alongside periods of depression and anxiety. I have never felt ashamed of those experiences. Looking back, I recognise them as profound turning points, even initiations, that changed the course of my life. My body had been giving me warning signs that I was not listening to, until eventually I could no longer continue as I had been.

Those experiences forced me to question what success, fulfilment and living in alignment really meant. They also began a much deeper journey of learning to recognise my own worth beyond what I could achieve or how much I could give to others.

In 2017, I was diagnosed with fibromyalgia, adding another dimension to a life already affected by chronic migraines. Living with long-term health conditions has taught me much about listening to my body, respecting my needs and adapting to changing circumstances. But it has also strengthened my determination not to allow a diagnosis to define who I am or what is possible for my life.

Today, I continue to navigate the realities of running a business, living with my own health challenges and supporting loved ones through theirs. I am also responsible for my aunt, who lives with Alzheimer's and is autistic. These responsibilities are part of my life, but they are not the entirety of it.

I have come to understand that reclaiming yourself does not mean walking away from the people you love or the responsibilities you hold. It means recognising that you matter within that life, too.

A Calling to the Sacred

My spiritual journey is an essential part of who I am, and my dedication as a Priestess of the Stars holds a particularly sacred place in my life.

My path unfolded through studying Goddess Elemental Healing and volunteering at the Goddess Temple in Glastonbury. What developed was not simply an interest in spiritual practices, but a profound sense of calling and connection with Goddess and the Divine Feminine.

I went on to spend two years studying Goddess-centred astrology through the Silver Spiral, before dedicating myself as a Priestess of the Stars through the Goddess Temple. This was a deeply personal commitment to a way of life rooted in devotion, reverence, integrity and relationship with the sacred.

That devotion continues to shape my everyday life. I honour the rhythms of Luna, the turning of the zodiac and the cycles of nature, seeking to live with greater awareness of my own rhythms rather than constantly pushing against them. My relationship with Goddess, my spiritual practices and my exploration of feminine wisdom are woven into the fabric of my everyday life. They are expressions of a deeply personal devotion and an ongoing commitment to living in greater harmony with myself and the sacred.

My Priestess path is my own sacred vocation. Although it naturally influences my perspective and the way I approach my work, its meaning extends far beyond my professional life.

How Sacred Reclamation Took Root

Sacred Reclamation grew from my increasing understanding that a meaningful life cannot be measured solely by achievement, productivity or how successfully we meet the needs of others.

Through my professional experiences, personal challenges, spiritual exploration and work as a coach and facilitator, I have come to recognise how easily women can lose sight of themselves beneath the many roles they occupy.

I also know that recognising this is only the beginning. Making meaningful changes requires self-awareness, courage, boundaries, practical choices and a willingness to question expectations that may have shaped our lives for years.

For me, Sacred Reclamation is not about becoming somebody entirely different or trying to create a perfect life. It is about remembering that we have a voice, that our needs and aspirations matter, and that we can exercise greater choice over how we live, even when our circumstances are complex.

It is a philosophy I continue to practise in my own life.

The Experience I Bring to My Work

Alongside my career in further and higher education, I have developed extensive experience in coaching, personal development, facilitation and holistic wellbeing.

I am a qualified and accredited Spiritual Empowerment Coach and Life Coach, with additional training across a range of disciplines including mindset, meditation, Reiki, crystal healing and other holistic practices. My professional background has given me valuable experience in leadership, working with people, navigating organisational responsibilities and supporting learning and development.

I have also been honoured to receive several awards recognising my work, including the South West of England Prestige Award for Best Spiritual Life Coach and the SME News UK Enterprise Award for Most Dedicated Spiritual Life Purpose Coach.

Today, I bring together this breadth of experience with my understanding of the realities women face in their personal and professional lives. My work is grounded in helping women strengthen their confidence and self-worth, establish healthier boundaries, reconnect with their aspirations and make meaningful, sustainable changes in their lives.

I believe that genuine personal development must be relevant to the life somebody is actually living. There is no single formula that works for everyone, and I value an approach that respects each person's circumstances, autonomy and individuality.

Beyond the work

I am a Leo Sun, Leo Rising, with a Sagittarius Moon. All fire. Passionate, loyal, and with a constant yearning for freedom and adventure.

 

I love crystals and have them everywhere, throughout my home, in my office, in my bag, and on my body. I am vegan. I love black cats, although I do not have one at the moment.

 

In my free time you will find me visiting stone circles and ancient sacred sites, wandering through Glastonbury Abbey and Chalice Well Gardens, exploring National Trust gardens, practising yoga, swimming, and spending time in nature. Holford in Somerset is one of my favourite places in the world, along with the Eden Project in Cornwall.

 

I often walk with two small offering bags, one with dried petals and one with crystal chips, so I can offer thanks to Goddess and Mother Earth wherever I go.

 

Being a Priestess is more than a title. It is a way of life, an honour, and a privilege. Every day is an opportunity to live in sacred relationship with the world around me, and to guide other women in remembering their own sacred nature.

Beyond my professional life, I am someone who finds meaning in learning, reflection, nature and the sacred moments woven through everyday life.

I love visiting the sea, exploring sacred places, spending time in nature, working with my oracle cards, journalling and deepening my understanding of astrology and the wisdom of the Divine Feminine. I value quiet rituals, time at my altar and opportunities to reconnect with the rhythms of the natural world.

I am endlessly curious and continue to learn, question and explore. My spiritual life is not separate from the ordinary realities of being human; it is something I seek to embody within them.

Above all, I am still learning what it means to live consciously and authentically, to honour my responsibilities without losing myself within them, and to make space for the things that bring meaning, fulfilment and joy.

That is the spirit in which I approach Sacred Reclamation, and the work I hope to share with others.
