Oh what a night! My giddy goodness, still coming down from the most incredible evening. WE DID IT! Thank you so so much to everyone who’s been involved & supported us on this insane journey so far…. In the words of The Carpenters “We’ve only just begun”

After decades of studying humans as an actor/writer analysing behaviour, emotion, relationships and all the strange little things that make us beautifully human, life kept quietly nudging me toward exploring something a little more real about the human experience.
Turns out, the reflections and musings I’ve been sharing over the past couple of years unexpectedly led to some really beautiful conversations with wonderful people… and somewhere along the way, this next chapter started to reveal itself.
So here we go, legends ✨
I’m officially opening up spaces for coaching, formed of safe, honest, deep, sometimes funny conversations for humans who feel stuck, overwhelmed, lost, anxious, or simply tired of fighting their own minds all the time.
No fixing. Just pure self insight, understanding & compassion, bringing a little more ease into being human.
DM me if you’re curious ✨🐦🔥

Houston, we have a problem…
UK comedy Feature films …..
Comedy features by women are still being overlooked. That’s the reality.
Where are the female led comedy feature films in the UK?
The budgets are there. The platforms are there. The audience is there.
Yet we keep getting pushback with the same cycle of thrillers, crime, violence & darkness on repeat.
What we consume matters. It shapes how we think, how we feel, how we see the world.
We need balance. We need joy. We need healthy viewing too.
Comedy, especially by women, is being sidelined, truly & that’s not just frustrating, it’s a missed opportunity.
Funny isn’t trivial. It’s necessary.
Feature film commissioners please can we shift the record.
Back women. Back comedy. Back stories that actually lift us as well as grip us.
We have to be the change, now more than ever!!!
(FYI I didn’t mean ‘innate’ greed 🤣)

Back on the grid. Back in the magic ✨
2025… you were f*cking wild 🐍
The year of the Snake, shedding everything that couldn’t come with me into 2026. You kept me on my toes, igniting a full-blown soul transformation. Lessons, loss, release & growth. Sometimes messy. Sometimes magical. Always meaningful. I’ve emerged stronger, wiser & a little witchier.
I said goodbye to beloved souls who crossed over. Held close those who survived near misses. Then in December, just when I thought I had nothing left to give, I faced the hardest decision of my life, one that cracked me open, turned me inside out, physically, mentally & emotionally & demanded that I meet myself fully. I stand here a forever changed woman…. again. Because we are forever evolving.
Somehow, in the midst of the pain & the grief, magic still found me, in the form of the most incredible man I have ever met. 🖤
A new chapter begins.
2026… I return with humour still in my pockets, a crown on my head & a master plan to live fully & help others do the same.
The boldest, fullest, most magical version of life awaits… & I’m so f’kin here for it! ✨👑🐦🔥
Well, I feel like I’ve finally graduated from Witch School…. What an absolutely incredibly peaceful, spiritual, fulfilling, rejuvenating, inspiring, hilarious, educational, calming & loving break away these past days have been. Stonehenge, you really are a tremendously powerful site…. The days were filled with an insane amount of magical synchronicities & we were lucky enough to spot not one but two rare Light Pillars in the sky, one over the site & another on route from the coastline. Also had the pleasure of spending the evening under the Harvest Super Moon. Cup overfloweth.
When the Universe throws you beautiful signs that you’re nailing this whole life thing, you can stop questioning & attaching to outcomes that exist only in your mind…. Once you master releasing the mental hold you have on yourself, you can start watching the magic roll in….

Last night was magical. When you experience being present with yourself, you can’t deny the magic of the universe. Last night we pulled moon cards and LET ME TELL YOU. The universe and me are in cahoots because it was spot on.
In the day time yesterday I made a plan to spend today planning and making a practical plan for my way out of a somewhat sticky situation.
The card I pulled?
“Make a practical plan to achieve your dream”
Wild. It blows my mind every time. All of these wonderful spiritual things you can do to get messages about the questions we have, are a beautiful way of showing yourself what YOU already know inside. That’s the magic. The answers always lie within you ✨
And the other two cards pulled were spot on too for my friends. So much fun. I lurrrrrve it!!! ♥️
