About

In my mid-twenties, I experienced a complete unraveling - heartbreak, the loss of long-time friendships and the ending of the life I knew. After four years living in London and travelling abroad, I found myself back in my hometown of Brisbane, feeling as though everything familiar had fallen away. Loss was all encompassing.

​

It was a true dark night of the soul - one that pinned me to a corner and left me with only one direction to look: within.

​

Life has a phenomenal way of reflecting through our circumstances and relationships, showing us where we’re not yet free inside. That period became my initiation. I was intuitively called to immerse myself into deep meditation practice that, in truth, saved my life. It was the one place in my life where I felt free - free from the grief, overwhelming emotions and chatter from the mind. From there, I had a radical career change — moving away from acting, performance-making and teaching — and found myself studying body–mind psychology and bodywork naturally inspired by the inner stillness I had started to cultivate. 

​

As I deepened in this path, something profound began to reveal itself: true healing doesn’t come from fixing or improving the self, but through a radical unlearning - becoming aware of and questioning the self that suffers; the one who feels not enough, insecure, fearful or unworthy.

​​​

The power of a sincere question reveals what is not true, and what is not you. It opens the doorway to letting go, a natural 'removal process' - rather than adding more layers of effort, identity or self-improvement that are often a compensation for the core universal wounds of 'feeling not enough' and the fear of loss.

​

This marked the beginning of what would become the heart of my life’s work: Self Enquiry.​​

​

Through opening up my inner world with Enquiry, I learned to take full responsibility for my thoughts, core wounds, attachments and conditioning - alongside recognising that the “personal self” which creates suffering and relational drama is not who I truly am. I began to meet uncomfortable emotions directly, rather than projecting them outward, and over time, found myself communicating from authenticity rather than fear, pleasing, or avoidance.

 

The inner work was now starting to be come such a clear mirror of how life was reflecting back to me. I started to see how every situation was reflecting my inner world - showing me where my attention was placed, what stories I was believing or releasing, and whether I was reacting from emotion or resting in awareness. This was the end of identifying with the victim stories and the beginning of meeting life as it is.

​

Through this life changing work, I learned to take full accountability for my unconscious thoughts, core wounds and conditioning — to recognise the identity of the “personal self” that created suffering and relational drama. I began to meet uncomfortable emotions directly, rather than projecting them onto others. Over time, I found myself communicating from authenticity instead of fear, pleasing or avoidance.

​

This was the power of Self Enquiry and Self Recognition Meditation — the work that continues to transform how I live, love and relate.

​​​

It feels like a celebration now to look back, because it was during that journey ten years ago that I met Chris. Together, we began developing the framework that would become the foundation of our shared work - Freedom Together. Over time, our friendship naturally evolved into a romantic union built on the same principles of awareness and enquiry that first brought us together.

​​

This framework gives rise to what we call Love Shared - a reciprocated invitation to meet each other in love beyond conditions. It’s a relationship where Enquiry comes first - and how we relate with each other becomes the natural byproduct of our inner work. As I often say, let your love shared, be your lived work. And it’s not a problem when fears, conditioning, judgements or wounds arise - we know how to meet them, so they don’t bleed out onto each other. It’s not about being perfect; it’s a willingness and devotion to this as a lifestyle - repairing through honesty and exposing what was unconsciously driving our behaviour, the parts we weren’t aware of until we brought them to the work. 

​

This way of living has been deeply shaped by the teachers and mirrors who’ve walked before me - those whose presence, pointings and direct experience continue to illuminate the simplicity of love and truth, embodied.

Mooji, with whom I had the privilege of staying at Monte Sahaja this September, marking a ten-year cycle of devotion to the inner witnessing he so effortlessly (and unrelentingly) points to with the purest love; Byron Katie, for the simplicity of questioning thoughts believed in which are the root of suffering; and Michael Singer, for showing us the gentle power of surrender.

​

And of course, my beautiful partner Chris - my greatest mirror and teacher in this life, who continues to inspire me through his devotion to this path, and whose depth of wisdom, humour, sincerity and love I have the privilege to witness so intimately.  Thank you.​
