Holostic Coach | Expressionist

Born and raised in London, I moved to Tokyo in 2015 to pursue a career in the renewable energy sector. After working in the field for 3 years, the days started to feel mundane and a voice inside was nudging me to explore my love for creativity. I left my well paying job to start fresh in the advertising industry. Full of hopes and dreams, I was determined to channel everything I had. Naive as I was, I soon realised that the rumours about the Japanese advertising industry were indeed true. Heavy workloads, long hours and cheap pay. With no boundaries in place, I welcomed new responsibilities and over applied myself to meet the expectations of my colleagues and clients. As you can imagine, this didn’t last long and all work had lost its meaning. After a year, without giving it much thought, I jumped into a study abroad start up to continue my quest to fulfilment.
Although I didn’t know it at the time, it was about to be one of the most toughest experiences of my life. I was able to find meaning in the work itself, but as I continued to work long hours, I was made to feel that I wasn’t enough and without me realising, the pressure to conform was slowly crushing my soul. Not being able to fit in, in an office full of enthusiastic smiley faces, I felt worthless and trapped. Only after 3 difficult years and a health crisis was I able to realise the negative impact this environment was having on me. My nervous system shut down, my skin covered with inflammations and the strong urge to itch deprived me from work and sleep.
​
Forced into solitude, I began to listen closely to the signals from my body and embraced a holistic approach to self-care. Through this process, I reconciled with my lifelong struggles with identity and learned to observe, rather than be overwhelmed by, my destructive thoughts. Although I had been doing my fair share of growing and healing, this pain and suffering lead me to the source of my negative self-talk, and trust the voice of my body and soul. It was during these dark times that I was able to open my heart and finally embrace the emotions I had been suppressing, allowing me to settle into a space of love and gratitude.
​
From this place, I chose to prioritise myself and create the life I truly desire, on my own terms.

"We all come from the same whole, light hearted in nature.
Humbly existing among one another, each with their own vision and tribulations.
We tread to the rhythm of our own drum and dance to that of the collective."
Life is too short to just adapt and live on people’s terms. I believe that by embracing who we truly are and letting go of the expectations we place on others, we can discover greater meaning. If we can learn to love and accept ourselves, we can also nurture patience and forgiveness toward others, creating a world of collaboration and peace.
