Navigate your world with purpose, power and passion
Earth and Soul infused coaching and mentoring
My philosophy:
I believe the quest for personal growth and spirituality is at its essence about shedding everything that is not you, to return to and remember your true self.
It’s just been covered up or forgotten…
Learn to be guided by your internal rightness and inner vision, this is the path to freedom from how others want you to live, act and be.
My passion is supporting you to bring awareness to your true self, reigniting and remembering your primal nature, feeling and directly experiencing how inextricably connected we are to nature and all that exists around us.
I will support you to find new levels of:
Aliveness, Awareness, Intuition and Connection
beyond what you thought were possible. With this expanded perspective you will access new and exciting ways of navigating your life.
There is nothing you need to make you whole, you are not broken, you don’t need to become something else, you have the answers you need, you have so much to offer this world
Your true self is what you are searching for
Do any of these resonate with you?
Nature holds a special place in your heart, you often feel nostalgic about your wild adventures as a child, although it feels like you have lost that part of yourself.
You know there is more to this life and you sometimes experience hints and vague ideas, and then they are gone. You sometimes wonder, what am I looking for?
You care deeply about the environment although you are utterly confused why humans are treating it badly. You feel powerless to do anything about it - why can’t they see what you see?
You like your life and feel accomplished, so why does your gut tell you there is something missing? It doesn’t make any sense...
There's something in the living world that beckons to you and your body reacts. It's not easy to ignore and your logical mind is trying to disregard its existence.
I have felt all of these, I believe they are common in modern society.
This is your intuition sending you messages, you are sensing things others miss or ignore. The modern culture we live in is based around scientific investigation and “facts”. Intuition is outside of this point of view.
For you, a deeper and much older part of you is waking up and connecting you to a much bigger picture than we are taught exists. Once you have caught a glimpse it's almost impossible to forget and live without exploring this direction and the adventures your intuition is pointing you towards.
This is exciting, let's explore this together with Earth and Soul coaching!
“We are much more than we ever imagine ourselves to be”
Thunder Strikes - Twisted Hair Naqual Elder
As you learn to believe this, then whatever stage of life or crossroads you are standing at, you will have more abilities and resources to draw upon than you can ever imagine. Wow, what a liberating idea!
How Earth and Soul Coaching will support you
Earth
Nature Connection practices and Ancestral Skills are the cornerstone of how we awaken your wild awareness and access so much of you that may be slumbering.
Reminding you of the belonging and nourishment you receive from your connection to mother earth and the living world.
These skills can also be a doorway into the spiritual realm. As these much older parts of us wake up, they enable you to quieten the physical mind and find balance in your internal landscape, giving you access to a more expansive and grounded way of perceiving your life and the living world.
Soul
I want to acknowledge Soul can mean many different things for lots of people.
In the way that I'm thinking about it and in this context, for me soul is my intrinsic essence that holds the magic and awareness of who I truly am and what I'm here to do.
Soul is part of the living world and exists beyond any ideas of modern society, careers, ego or persona. Another useful description of soul is:
Soul - A person or thing’s unique, innate niche in the Earth community.
Bill Plotkin - Nature and the Human Soul
Soulcraft
Soulcraft is learning to feel and communicate with your soul, which enables you to trust your internal rightness and be led by your inner vision to what is right for your soul's path.
Why is this so important and powerful?
The spiritual path on which I believe healing, wholing (integrating all of who we are) and reconnecting to our wild self are vital steps, is a winding circuitous path, sometimes overgrown and often doesn’t look how you think it will.
The physical mind likes logic and certainty. There is none of that here, so it will tend to take you back to places you have already been.
Soulcraft is opening your world view up to include intuition, yearnings, expanded awareness and maybe a little magic and myth.The second part is learning to trust these soulful communications as they appear through feelings, hints and unexpected opportunities.
The possibility here is you can take responsibility for your life, choose your own path, connect with purpose, feel the aliveness and power of living in alignment with your soulpath, and offer your unique gifts to the world.
Wild Awareness
Does the idea of opening your gateway to deeper connection with the earth and to senses far beyond the five accepted ones excite you?
🧬Wild Awareness is accessing your ancestral wisdom that is encoded in your DNA.
🌿Wild Awareness is the forgotten bridge between us as humans and us as members of the wider earth community.
🔥Wild Awareness may just be that certain something that you felt like was missing most of your life.
Wild Awareness is an ancient and wise part of us - it is how you integrate all types of awareness and ways of perceiving the world.
Imagine learning to shift from the noisy physical mind to the silence of your spiritual mind, accessing your Wild Awareness, moving consciously and in the moment to moment flow of nature. Being able to move silently and sense everything that is happening around you.

Aliveness and Flow
I approach coaching from a unique perspective having spent almost equal amounts of time over the last 30 years leading people in the air (skydiving), underwater (scuba diving) and in nature.
Understanding the dynamics of flow states and what you are capable of as a human being is incredibly important, so you can move beyond the limiting beliefs we are fed in society.
Everyone has experienced flow - this “in the moment”/ immersive/ powerful state is beyond the physical mind. It is the dynamic and action orientated part of the spiritual mind, where you learn that meditation is a state of mind and can be accessed in your daily life!
As you release limiting beliefs, awaken your wild awareness and start choosing to live in alignment with what your internal rightness is telling you, your resistance dissolves and aliveness and flow become your natural state of being.
Digital and Modern World Detox
Why do you need this?
Our modern world is designed to distract you, sell to you, to stop you being “bored”. To show you things you “need” and don’t have, to be with you from when you wake up until you sleep.
To keep you comfortable, safe, clean, dry, not too hot and not too cold. “Wrapped up” like this we are unused to feeling strong sensations through our body, so it becomes easy to lose touch with our awareness and the living world.
One of the greatest needs in our modern world is to slow down and take time to reconnect with the natural world and ourselves.
When this happens, a deep longing in your body and life is satiated. We have been intrinsically connected to nature since our species evolved. By choosing this regularly you feel calmer, become more eco-centric and happier (proven by many scientific studies.- link)
Be guided to uncover your wild and free self through nature connection practices and ancestral skills.
As you become aware of what you're missing, you’ll feel more yourself and alive, maybe remembering how you felt when you were a kid.
Earth and Soul coaching and mentoring
How we’ll work together:
Starting with a free discovery session, we’ll connect, explore the possibilities of how I can support you on your journey, and start to build the rapport our sessions will be built on.
You may have a crystal clear view of what support you need at this point - amazing let's go there.
You may sense that it's time to recalibrate your circumstances and establish a new trajectory, although the details are not yet clear. Great, an exciting time for us to connect and be open to the possibilities that emerge.
You may resonate with some of what I say, maybe an idea or feeling called to you. Let's connect and explore where that wants to take you…
Together we’ll design a coaching and mentoring program that reflects your individual journey and needs.
This may include: 6 or 12 coaching sessions, nature connection and ancestral skills mentoring sessions, or a combination.
Alternatively an Awaken and Ignite on off session may be what's needed (you can read more about this below).
Sessions are online or in person at my Nature Connection School in northern NSW.

Is it time to stoke your fire?
“I don't believe people are looking for the meaning of life as much as they are looking for the experience of being alive”
— Joseph Campbell
Awaken and Ignite one off session
Is there something in your life that has your attention? Would an outside perspective and a safe no-judgemental space enable you to explore it?
“Thinking things through” on your own has its limitations, the biggest one being it relies on the scope and view point of your physical or logical mind.
Imagine being supported to quieten your physical mind, so you can listen to your body and internal rightness.
There are feelings, intuition and a sense of knowing within you that may contain the answers you seek, these are often the more subtle and less understood ways that your body and soul communicates with you.
Your Investment - $150 per 1 hr session
Coaching Programs
Purpose Built and Individually designed with you to honour your unique journey
A coaching program is a highly effective way for me to support you to create positive and sustainable change in your life.
I have been involved in personal growth, breakthrough and nature based programs for 12 years, coupled with 25 years in the adventure sports industry. What I noticed is that by providing support over a 3 - 6 month period of time, you are much more likely to achieve sustainable change.
Integration takes time and is super important, it's the way you metabolize your experiences and make meaningful change by integrating your learnings and realizations into your life. Combining coaching and deep nature work, these two modalities support each other allowing you to go deeper and achieve a grounded and holistic outcome.
