Sara – Blue Conker

Like many of the women I now support, I’ve known what it feels like to be stuck. My personal development journey began in my teens with a deep desire for independence - and it’s been evolving ever since.
My life has given me plenty of opportunities to learn (whether I wanted them or not). Through them all, I came to understand what it really means to choose change, even when it feels impossible.
The pivot to becoming a full-time coach came following the pandemic steamed from a dark night of the soul experience that left me questioning everything. With my then three businesses in tatters from the pandemic restrictions, I’d started to feel like a failure. I wanted change, but I had no idea where to begin. Then, support came from an unexpected source and pulled me back from the edge.
I realised I was showing up for my family, but not for myself. I was alive, but I wasn’t really living in my purpose.


I had achieved a lot - but still, something was missing. I started exploring new career paths and wondered if training as a nutritionist was the answer.
Then it hit me:
“It’s not what we put in our mouths that causes the problem - it’s what we put in our minds."
That moment changed everything.
It was the beginning of what I now call Roots to Rise®: the process of aligning your mind and body so you can make clear, empowered choices.
With a professional background in training & development, therapeutic play, drama, and creative arts (not to mention the 12 years of home educating and the 3 side hustle businesses I’d run for 10 years, I began combining everything I’d learned to help other women lead themselves with intention, clarity and purpose.
Many of my clients arrive feeling overwhelmed, burnt out, or simply “off course.” They don’t always know what they want - but they do know that what they have isn’t working.
You might be navigating motherhood, leadership, or both, while ignoring your own needs as you support others. You may be blaming yourself for not coping better. Or maybe you’re living with regret based on a family history that has laden you with guilt and shame that resurfaces at unexpected and unwanted moments.
I understand. I’ve been there.
Our sessions create space for you.
To reflect.
To explore.
To reconnect with the spark that’s powered your success - and to reignite it for the next chapter.


Let’s reactivate your leadership from the inside out.
Whether you're feeling stuck, depleted, or unsure of your next step, I’ll guide you to explore unconscious patterns, heal emotional blocks, and reconnect with your purpose.
I use a flexible, creative toolbox - hypnotherapy, coaching, mind-body techniques, and the expressive arts - to design a bespoke transformation experience for every woman I work with.
This is about unlocking your unique voice, your energy, your power.

Meet Vic, a Programme & Partnership Manager. She’d already applied for a promotion twice but had not been successful. Which was disappointing because she was already acting up into the role. Feedback suggested she wasn’t fully showing her strengths, particularly in interview situations. After her 360° review, she reached out to me for support. Together, we created a safe, caring space where she could explore the roots of what was holding her back. I helped her recognise the skills she already had, explore the barriers that were getting in the way, and practise techniques to feel more grounded and confident to rise under pressure. With each step, she grew in assurance and was finally able to demonstrate her full capability and secure the promotion she desired. Supporting her through this journey was a privilege - and it showed how the right coaching can unlock what’s already there, just waiting to rise.

My client, Nicola has enjoyed a long and varied career in the public eye, but reached a point where she wanted to reimagine her future. She also wished to explore her thoughts and feelings around possible neurodiversity. What drew her to me was the unstructured, diverse and creative resources I use - approaches that encourage openness, uncover deep-rooted issues, and spark new insights. Together, we created space for reflection, healing, and possibility. Step by step, she was able to refocus, gain clarity, and begin shaping a future where she could rise with confidence and purpose.

When Charlotte first came to therapy, she was housebound, suffering from severe anxiety, obsessive checking, and recurring nightmares rooted in early neglect and loss. In our sessions, we used advanced counselling skills, CBT reframing, values exploration, NLP visual techniques, ego-strengthening hypnosis, and coaching tools to build safety, self-belief, and purpose. She moved from fear and hypervigilance to confidence and independence, sleeping through the night, no longer checking doors, leaving the house, and setting achievable life goals such as eating healthily and travelling. Her progress reflected significant emotional healing and the boundaries she started to put in places helped balance her relationships and restore autonomy.
