My Story

As a young adult my passion developed in the Health and Fitness industry. Starting off as a Personal Trainer in the early 90's was enough to get me hooked.

I was thirsty for more knowledge to build my skills and expand my awareness, this lead me to do my teacher training in both Yoga and Pilates it was here that I knew I was on the right path. I loved watching and supporting others to grow and helping them to reach personal goals and achievements.

Committed to my own personal growth I then trained in the field of Holistic Therapies, starting with Indian Head Massage, Hot Stone Therapy and Reiki healing in which after many years training, I became a Master.

I then set up my first company in the early 2000's called Pearshaped Fitness & Wellbeing. I began working in schools and the corporate sector to help staff achieve a better work life balance. Not wanting to stand still myself I continued my studies in NLP, EFT and Life Coaching. It was at this point in my life I knew I could really make a difference to peoples lives and outcomes, which I felt was a very powerful thing.

It was an honor to guide and support so many people on this wonderful journey, we call LIFE. x

Life was busy, business was booming and I had definitely found my jam, I felt incredibly fortunate to be doing something I loved everyday. It was here that I started my own little family and was blessed with two of the most amazing Sons!!

The struggle was real with my second pregnancy and my body was letting me know. After the birth of my second Son I got diagnosed with Rheumatoid Arthritis, something I thought only old people got. I was in a bad way and knew I was about to embark on a whole new journey, my path had changed and the only way forward was to dig deep and come to terms with my diagnosis. I was unable to work and had to take a step back from my business.

I began my research, as the specialists didn't have many answers. I couldn't believe as a young new mum I was left to figure it out and simply take a bunch of medication everyday. Still on a never ending journey to good health, I have found myself here, at this point 13 years later. I have tried and tested it all!!

Now, medication free I have learned and sometimes the hard way, to really listen to my body. Foods that my body does and does not like. Certain types of exercise that don't work for me, even down to certain environments and personal care products. After many years of fine tuning, trial and error it really does make a difference to your overall health and wellbeing. Unfortunately it is not a one size fits all, so it is a journey that only you can go through!! 

I haven't got all the answers but I do know that there are so many factors to take a look at when when you have been diagnosed with a inflammatory condition or any other health condition for that matter

The birth of Conscious Skin, in late 2020 I began my studies in Botanical herbalism. Over the years I have a done a complete overhaul of my personal care products and found that my body responded better to more natural products. The more I learned about toxic overload and the impact it had on the body and particularly my health, I knew I wanted to do something about it. I wanted to be a part of the change to empower and educate people to make better choices about what they put on their skin matters!!
