My journey to facilitating transformative conversations on social & emotional wellbeing began with 15 years in complementary medicine, where against a prevailing tide of overwork and overwhelm, my own health crisis revealed what was missing - the power of strong, supportive, empathetic human connection. Those years of creating safety for sensitive health & wellbeing conversations became the foundation for my approach to honest dialogue about complex topics.

For the past decade, I've supported schools across Australia to reimagine social and emotional learning, helping educators and parents have better conversations with young people about practical aspects of wellbeing, relationships, and behavior. I've also guided teams and organisations to cultivate cultures of healthy connection, mutual support, and accountability. I’ve worked in suicide prevention, delivering mental health leadership camps to groups of young people and safeTALK suicide alertness trainings. Alongside this work, I founded Good Blokes Co, a social enterprise promoting healthy masculinity through honest conversations with men and boys about wellbeing, violence prevention and their own behaviour.

My passion lies in empowering communities with the human skills that build healthy, supportive, accountable social connection. When we embed honest and authentic conversations into a culture, we unleash humans' innate ability to support each other's growth, learning and wellbeing, taking the pressure off leaders and teachers as authentic connection and belonging fuel lasting transformation.
