Favourite quote

"Be yourself, everyone else is taken” - Oscar Wilde

The weirdest thing about me

I have a double-jointed elbow!

Biggest achievement

My two kids, I'm incredibly proud of them both (My daughter has additional support needs so I have her to thank for my special yoga journey).

Fun fact

I own a 1950s jukebox and love collecting old records (especially funk and soul).

Favourite place in the world

Melbourne, where I met my husband.

What I enjoy doing outside of work

I love being outside with my dogs and travelling in our campervan.

What makes me different

I'm really interested in how we can all manage our emotions with the use of really simple techniques. It's certainly helped me in the work that I do. I'm always on the lookout for new tools to help teach people how to regulate themselves to make life a little easier.
