Where are you based? I live in Bow in East London and run The Thrive Programme locally. I also run it remotely (I.e. Via Skype etc) so please don't let location get in the way of learning to thrive.

What do you love about The Thrive Programme? I love that The Thrive Programme can help so many different people no matter what their starting point is. Whether it's someone wanting to unlock their full potential and achieve their goals or someone struggling with significant mental health difficulties (e.g. anxiety, depression, phobias) this programme works! It is easy to understand, evidence-based and empowers people in a way no other psychological programme I have come across before does.

What did you do before you became a Coach? I have always been fascinated by people and have a degree in Psychology & Biology and an MSc in Business Psychology. I spent over 10 years working in Learning & Development roles and discovered the Thrive Programme myself after I became a parent and found juggling a career with parenting extremely challenging. I work part-time as a Leadership Coach and am a qualified Yoga Teacher, specialising in wellbeing in pregnancy.

What do you do when you're not working? I love adventure and travel and get as much pleasure from snowboarding in the mountains as I do relaxing on a beach/snorkelling in the sea. Living in the city, you’ll often find me exploring hidden green spaces and those quiet tucked away spots in our busy capital. Sport & exercise have always featured heavily in my life. Variety is definitely the spice of life! That applies to the frequency with which I change my sporting challenges to my love for both cities and the countryside and the variety of foods I love to put on my plate !!

An interesting fact? Stick Run DMC on and I might be tempted to show you my version of the Caterpillar!
