I trained as a Shiatsu and Watsu practitioner in my early 20's, drawn to the way bodywork could bring people into a quality of stillness and connection. I became a yoga teacher, spending twenty years guiding classes and courses for beginners and intermediates. People left my classes with a timeless quality of stillness that seemed to surprise them every time.

Moving from hands-on healing modalities, I began facilitating retreats, mantras concerts, and gatherings of people around a shared longing to know something greater than the mundane.

Shortly after relocating from Western Australia to the East Coast came a period of reckoning. Around the time of the lockdowns, when the world went quiet, so did I. I found myself facing a profound disparity between everything I knew and how I was actually living.
Difficulty in relationships, health challenges, professional uncertainty... The kind of dark night that strips away everything that was now i know, not real and painfully so.

I stepped back from community life, turned inward, and began creating art, quietly starting formal training as a psychotherapist and coming closer and closer to myself.

It was during this period that Kabbalistic wisdom entered my life with a depth and precision I had not encountered before. Born into a Jewish family, it felt less like a discovery and more like a homecoming. It enhanced everything I had gathered across thirty years and gave me the practical map I had been looking for. The gap between knowing and being started to close.
