1. My formative years were spent living on a commune in the 1970s: there was no television, radio or pop culture. I spent a lot of time playing in nature and this helped me to connect more deeply to my inner worlds and dreams!
2. I’m a musician: I grew up playing a wide array of instruments and have been in over eight bands over the years, toured UK and Europe and recorded and performed with 80’s pop star Adam Ant.
3. I have a big green thumb: I love plants and working with them for healing, dreaming and magic. I teach courses on how to work with dream herbs for lucid dreaming with The Psychedelic Society UK.
4. I am a Death Doula: I help hold compassionate space and guidance for those who are dying and for their family members. I’m a death positive advocate and I’m always holding death cafes, workshops and talks.
5. I am a Tarot Reader: I’ve been working with the cards for many years and hold sessions and teach masterclasses at She’s Lost Control esoteric lifestyle brand in London, UK.
6. I used to be a raver: from 1990-1995 I travelled around the North American Rave scene taking photos and released a photographic coffee table book called “This Girl is Super’.
7. I’m currenting studying at the Alef Trust in the programme for Psychedelics, Altered States & Transpersonal Psychology: I’m fascinated by altered states of consciousness, like lucid dreaming and mystical experiences and how these exceptional experiences can be used to help heal trauma and release fear of death.
