It’s not an easy path to befriend our female bodies in this world.
As women, we long to be taken seriously, to step into our power, share our medicine in the world, and to thrive in all areas of life. Yet when we try to do so by following the pace and patterns of our dominant culture, we often end up exhausted – disconnected from our bodies and from the deeper wisdom that lives within us.
Accessing our authentic power and leadership as women requires that we work with our bodies, rather than against them.
Perhaps you’ve found yourself facing burnout, illness, or some other signal from your body – a clear demand that something needs to change. Or maybe it’s more subtle: a quiet knowing that you’ve gone long enough living in disconnection from the magic and potential of having a female body. A sense that there’s more available – more depth, more connection, more aliveness – if only you could learn how to listen differently.
That’s where I come in.
I want to offer you a gentle, compassionate space – one where you can slow down, reconnect with yourself, with your womb, and with the deeper intelligence of what it means to live as a cyclical being. A space that invites you to come home to your body and begin reclaiming the birthright of living in alignment with it.
Your womb is your ally in leadership. She connects you to the power of your interoception, your intuition, and your calling. She is a master of balancing polarities, initiating you into the archetypes and energies of the Feminine, lovingly guiding you towards the unintegrated parts of yourself and raising your standards for what good boundaries and self-care look like.
Since beginning my journey of womb initiation in 2016, I’ve spoken with hundreds of women walking the path of Feminine leadership. I’ve had the honour of founding and leading two international communities rooted in menstrual cycle awareness, and through this, I’ve come to understand the power – and necessity – of trusting the wisdom of the female body.
My approach is:
Relational
Even if we’re exploring things you’d like to change, we let go of the need to ‘fix’ and honour that it’s by ‘being with‘ that real change is possible. This is the Feminine way! This doesn’t rule out very practical steps, tools and strategies you can take away to support yourself.
Embodied
While the mind loves to ‘understand,’ and insight (especially having a seasonal framework around the menstrual cycle) is useful, I want to support you to tap into and trust the wisdom that’s in your body.
Intimate
My work centres the importance of our relationship being founded on honesty and transparency. I believe in the simplicity of shared vulnerability between humans in a safe space as a powerful healing force.
Collaborative
While I’m here to guide and support you, the work we do is a collaboration between us, where you are encouraged to take responsibility for where it feels valuable to go.
Seasons-based
The cyclical blueprint is at the foundation of life and learning to experience life through this lens (I use the metaphor of inner seasons but you might use a different one, depending on where you come from) is a game changer when it comes to our cycling bodies, where we are in our life arc, creativity and much more.
Systemic
I don’t see you as an isolated individual but part of a larger, entangled web of relationships, cycles, systems and histories that you’re held in. I see the work we do together as embodied activism, supporting a culture that respects and brings dignity to the female body.

A bit more about me:
I came to study the female body and her initiatory nature, following my curiosity in what a Feminine approach to leadership might be. How do I feel in connection with my power – that looks different from examples of power and leadership that I see in the world around me?
It made sense to me to look within and access the gateway of my own body. This led me to certify in Menstruality Leadership, which explores the psycho-spiritual aspects of the womb, from menarche (when we first start to bleed) through to menopause and use my own womb cycles to explore my access to a Feminine power.
Despite being a qualified yoga teacher, I realised through practicing Menstrual Cycle Awareness (tracking my cycle daily so I could discern the energies, gifts and challenges unique to each day), how disconnected from my body I actually was and the trauma I had accumulated.
What followed was years of being ‘worked’ by my cycle, learning how to honour and take care of myself in each phase, finding the gifts in my challenging pre-menstrual phase, taking a good hard look at my relationship to slowing down and in resting during my bleed and peeling away layers of conditioning around valuing doing over being.
In short, it’s been nearly ten years of what I see as embodied activism: owning what our body actually needs in this linear, man-made world, where its wisdom – especially that of the female body and its cyclicality – is so repressed. This is bringing balance back into a world that so desperately needs it.
My womb has been one of my greatest teachers in learning how to integrate the many polarities, archetypes, and energies that live within me. It’s shown me that wholeness isn’t about choosing one part over another, but about creating space for the full spectrum to coexist and inform one another. We can be delicate and fierce, introverted and extroverted, witch and maiden, shadow-dweller and light-bringer, wild storm and still water. These inner opposites create the complexity that makes us whole.
In late 2023 I received the guidance to move. As soon as I signed the contract to sell my house, I stopped bleeding – as though my body knew that something else was needed to hold me in this process. I realized that all the cycle tracking I had done was preparing me for the big descent of menopause, where I currently reside, taking each day as it comes, getting a degree in slowing down and allowing myself to not know what comes next!
