The catalyst for my life now began here in this very spot

The catalyst for my life now began here in this very spot! I arrived in Batemans bay on 3rd January 2015 burnt out, broken hearted and needing a change in careers. By this point I’d been meditating & practicing yoga for a while and I could hear my intuition screaming at me "there is more to life than this". I knew I was ready for a big change, but I was so afraid of doing it.

Afraid of what people thought.

Afraid of what people would say.

Afraid I would fail.

Afraid I would succeed.

And completely paralysed by my next steps.

After all, I was nearly 30, what am I doing? By societies standards I should be 'settling down.' But my heart yearned for change, for me to find myself, for me to live my dreams, and I couldn't ignore it a second longer. I needed a change.

Then something happened: while I was in Batemans bay, my uncle brought me to this spot and said something that would change my life:

"You have been taught to be afraid of life. You are carrying so much fear in your body it’s stopping you from really living! If you want to know who you really are, you need to pursue what you love "

The penny finally dropped. The next year I did my yoga teacher training, started my business as a yoga teacher & left high school teaching... which was the first step towards what I am doing now

Fast forward to January 2025... Just a few days ago, bush walking with my beautiful friend Clare Lovelace & her partner Rod, I found a spot that reminded me of this moment. In 10 years, so much can change for the better!

This trip to Batemans bay was a reminder of what's possible when you really set your heart on living your dreams. In living a heart centred life… I’m now living my dreams in every single way!

I am the founder & Head Teacher of the Embodied Breath Academy a Globally Recognised Breathwork school that offers 400hrs of training.

I can travel for my work, and share this powerful modality with so many amazing people; breathing 1000s of people since starting this work!

I make powerful sound medicine under the music name Kalilah and have music I am so proud of on spotify.

I live such a fulfilling life, great friends, doing fun things & relaxing in ways I never thought possible.

I am busting at the seams with joy, pleasure & creativity and when life gets hard, I have the tools to love and have compassion for myself.

So many people remain trapped in old patterns, afraid to break free, just like I was. Maybe you’ve felt that too... but what if it doesn’t have to be this way?

What if you could choose something different—something freer, lighter, and more expansive? You don’t have to do it alone—I’m here to help you step into that freedom Send me a DM with the word FREEDOM to start your journey with the power of your breath!

This is also why I keep coming down to Soul Tribe Studio… a place of personal transformation, and I love servicing the community here thank you for having me Clare Lovelace & Soul Tribe Studio I love what you’ve built and I love being a part of it!

Thank you to all who came and trusted me with this journey together! It was also so great to see some familiar faces

We donated 10% of all profits from the work I did at Soul Tribe to Talk to me Bro Talk2MeBro was developed to help reduce the number of males who die to suicide in Australia. Through early intervention, the aim is to create societal change by reducing the stigma around suicide and getting men to feel comfortable talking about what they are going through emotionally and mentally.
