We have all the intuitive guidance inside of us that also need to be listened to and followed. I’ve learnt this from personal experience and from observing patients in my Naturopathic practice over the last ten years. Healing comes from within and I am still mind-blown by the results that come from following our intuition.

In 2007 I completed my four year degree in Health Science and Naturopathy. I learnt from some of the best, particularly in western herbal medicine – something I am so very passionate about. I spent the next few years practicing and applying evidence-based naturopathic medicine. I got great results – I still felt, however, there was something vitally missing in my approach to healing. I needed something that would help my patients transform their health issues on a deeper level, for long lasting healing. Through a serendipitous turn of events, I was guided to learn Reiki and meditation. My view on health was flipped upside-down.

Since then I’ve managed and healed from many of my own chronic health conditions – all due to a patient, holistic approach, a blend of practical natural medicine and mystical energy healing. Creative outlets and giving myself permission to seek pleasure, be vulnerable, a passionate feminist and make some brave life choices were the deepest parts of my healing.

Unsurprisingly, the physical healing coincided with a quest for creative exploration where I set out to study contemporary dance, delve deep into music, writing and styling alongside my naturopathic practice. A second business naturally followed, with my partner who is a photographer. Together, we create styled photography for brands and magazines, both locally and internationally.

Both businesses have helped me become a lifelong student of creativity and healing. Like many, I have had to move through some challenging experiences but this has allowed me to create new beliefs about life, and trust in something bigger than myself.

I’ve learnt that healing and peeling back the layers never stops, it’s a vulnerable journey to create more room in your life for having a Damn. Good. Time.
