My Story
Thank you for visiting my website.
From Personal Struggle to Helping Others...
If you’ve ever felt trapped by anxiety, emotional overwhelm, or the challenges of a long-term chronic pain condition, you know how quickly life can start to feel unmanageable.
Early in 2022, my own life changed unexpectedly. I developed intense joint stiffness and widespread muscle pain that made even simple everyday tasks feel impossible. After many medical appointments, tests, and referrals, I was diagnosed with Fibromyalgia — a condition I had never heard of before!
What surprised me most wasn’t just the physical pain, but the emotional strain it brought. Dealing with uncertainty, frustration, and the impact and limitations on daily life became just as challenging.
During that time though, I discovered the Anxiety and Emotional Breakthrough Health Academy and trained to become a certified coach. That experience became a turning point, helping me understand the powerful connection between our emotions, nervous system, and overall wellbeing.
Today, I support people who feel stuck in anxiety, emotional overwhelm, or the challenges that come with chronic pain conditions like Fibromyalgia. My goal is to help others uncover what’s happening beneath the surface and provide practical guidance and support to help move forward.
Alongside my coaching, I am actively involved in initiatives that support mental health and neurodiversity awareness within grassroots football. My focus is on providing individuals with the knowledge and resources to better understand the challenges associated with ADHD, autism, and other neurodevelopmental conditions, both on and off the pitch.
A key focus is supporting parents and working with coaches to create inclusive environments and make appropriate adjustments where needed.... My work supports the whole football community - coaches, parents, carers, guardians, players, and volunteers.
Football has been a lifelong passion of mine, from playing at a decent level, managing/coaching U10-U18's, and now being able to combine those experiences with meaningful support in mental health, is something I care deeply about.
So if you are dealing with your own anxiety, emotional challenges, chronic pain, or would like to seek support from your involvement in grassroots football, you are not alone, there is a way forward, and I’d love to help!
