About Me

I’m a certified trauma-informed life coach, mental health advocate, and the host of the Don’t Be Afraid to Talk podcast. With over a decade of experience in community building, coaching, and public speaking, I create safe, transformative spaces where vulnerability isn’t just welcomed—it’s celebrated.
I hold a Diploma in Personal & Business Coaching from The Irish Lifecoach Institute (ILI), which represents the Practitioner Level of Coaching accreditation in Ireland. My journey has always been guided by a personal commitment to growth and healing, so I’ve sought out extensive further training to deepen my expertise.
I’m certified in The Voyage® Deep Dive, a 12-month trauma-informed care programme accredited for 80 CPD hours and Level 5 OFQUAL ACCPH. This intensive course strengthened my holistic approach to mind-body-soul healing and equipped me with advanced tools to support clients facing trauma, grief, and deep personal transformation. I’ve also completed Trauma-Aware Training and The Voyage® Masterclass Trauma-Sensitive Training, both CPD-accredited, which further enriched my ability to support clients with grounded presence, sensitivity, and empathy.
Beyond my formal training, I’ve spent over five years deeply exploring human behaviour—examining the emotions, choices, and patterns that shape our lives. I’ve read more than 70 books across psychology, coaching, and therapeutic disciplines, immersing myself in diverse models and approaches to healing and transformation. Alongside this, I’ve attended countless workshops and events, and actively engaged in holistic practices and personal reflection. This journey of self-discovery has not only expanded my knowledge—it’s helped me embody the principles I share with others and live the growth I invite my clients to pursue.
As the host of Don’t Be Afraid to Talk, I’ve led more than 60 episodes of honest conversation about trauma, grief, addiction, family dynamics and healing. Through reflective listening and storytelling, I aim to create a space where silence is replaced by compassion, and emotional intelligence becomes a bridge to greater connection and understanding.
In my coaching practice, I work as a co-creating coach—partnering with clients in a collaborative process that honours their inner wisdom and lived experience. I blend emotional intelligence, attentive listening, and gentle challenge to help people move past fear and rediscover their inner strength. My work is rooted in empathy, authenticity, and the belief that healing begins with open, honest conversation.
