Not all those who wander are lost.

Have you ever struggled to find your purpose?

Have you ever had the feeling like you don’t fit in?

Did you find it impossible to settle on a career path that made sense to you?

Well, me too and I’ve been on a journey trying to figure that out since I left school in 1994.

It’s only now when I get to look back on the last 30 years that it all makes sense to me.

I was made this way so that I would go through life on a journey of self-exploration, so that I wouldn’t just settle for something simple and be done with it.

It wasn’t until I hit 30 that I found Personal Training, the first career that spoke to my heart and passions at the time of weightlifting and nutrition. Before that I had studied Fish Farming and Fishery Management at an Agricultural College, worked as a Computer Programmer and had been a professional model for 6 years.

In 2009 Personal Training took me deep into a journey through my physical world, taking part in Bodybuilding shows and winning an award in 2013 for Gym Based Personal Trainer of the Year.

This external journey then began to turn inwards in 2014 as I discovered the expansive and healing effects of Ayahuasca, psychedelics and plant medicine. This took me to the Amazon jungle on two occasions and began connecting me with my spiritual side which included becoming a Reiki Master. This also led to a 7-year journey with veganism that culminated in 2021 as I self-published my first book ‘Plant Powered’.

In 2022 I left behind veganism and began to evolve my identity as a personal trainer, shifting it to include guiding people on their own life journeys, adding a new title of Life Journey Facilitator a form of Life Coaching.

It hasn’t been a smooth ride; it rarely is for any of us. Time and time again I have been forced to trust and surrender to where life has been leading me, uncertain how I would get there.

Over the course of the next year, I brought out my next book ‘The Journey to the Centre of your Soul’. Gave birth to my 6-week program of self-discovery ‘Inner Earth’ and then made the decision to deepen my education and passion into human behaviour, completing a certificate in Humanistic Counselling and starting a 3-year journey in Counselling and Psychotherapy.

Life really is a journey not a destination, and one thing I’ve learned is to fall in love with the process, because every time you reach a summit a new mountain will appear for you to scale.

So, breathe, put one foot in front of the other and keep moving forward with fascination and curiosity for the game we are all playing, with your own set of tools in your own unique way.

Bon Voyage
