I am endlessly curious about what shapes our lives, what influences our thinking, and the meaning we make of our experiences. Through thoughtful questions, stories and reflection, I invite people to explore their thinking, see themselves differently, and make more intentional choices.

​​​​What Expanded My World

​​

Over the years, I've become endlessly curious about what shapes our lives, what influences our thinking, and the meaning we make of our experiences.

Looking back, I can see that curiosity has quietly guided much of my life.

Growing up in South Africa, my world was relatively small. I wasn't lacking ability—I simply hadn't yet been exposed to what was possible.

My second job happened to be with Unilever. I didn't know it then, but it would become the first of many experiences that expanded the way I saw the world.

​

Learning to Notice

​​

Later, moving overseas expanded it further.

​

​Stepping away from my career gave me something unexpected.

​

​Living within an international community, raising my daughters and learning from people whose lives, cultures and perspectives were very different from my own challenged assumptions I didn't even realise I held.

​

I found myself becoming increasingly curious—not only about other people,

but about myself.

​​

Following My Curiosity

​

Looking back, I can now see the thread.

Whenever I encountered a person, an idea or an experience that fascinated me,

I wanted to understand it.

If it resonated...

I explored it.

I expanded my thinking.

I gradually integrated it into the way I lived and worked.

That curiosity eventually led me to Positive Psychology and coaching. Those experiences didn't change who I was—they gave language to much of what I had already been observing throughout my life.
