The Instant Pause is structured around a process I learned over ten years ago. It is a simple process that has supported me time and time again in my life. I’ve used it at those times when I’ve felt confused, when I’ve looked in the mirror and can no longer see the real me. When my zest for life has disappeared – slipping away almost un-noticed, this process has helped me see options I didn’t know existed for myself.
It’s easy to look around and think that you’ve messed everything up. That now it just has to be this way. You think there’s no other option for you.
I want you to know that you haven’t got your life wrong. There is always a way. A way back to the adventurous, playful spirit that has always been yours. I believe every day you get to write your own story, and that it truly can be as your heart desires – fulfilling, connected, passionate, fun.
The Instant Pause helps you look back to move forwards. Creating a steady platform which you can springboard your life. It’s a day designed to bring you back into balance when you most need it.
Spending a day at The Instant Pause is like giving yourself a gift. You will leave feeling inspired, confident and clear about what’s next for you in your life.
I really enjoyed the down time to reflect and make decisions for the year ahead and floated out of the room!!

The Instant Pause is a great way to stop, reflect and take stock of who you are, what you are doing and what you want to be doing, giving you tools and inspiration to fly.

I feel so much more alive. I had lost my confidence and my belief. I didn’t realise I was sleepwalking through life.

We all intend to 'pause' but it more than often slips off the ever growing to do list. This day ensures you do it, but in a relaxed, gentle and beautifully guided environment.

At the heart of the work I do is one thing. Illuminating Potential. Enabling people to be the best version of themselves, whatever they want that to be. I like to work in a dynamic, creative and holistic way whether that be as a Coach, Facilitator, Supervisor or Mentor. It is an honour to create deep trust with a fellow human being and be able to utilise my intuition, working with you in a sanctuary of reflection.

I have spent much of my work helping people grow whether they be children, teenagers or adults. After a brief ‘detour” into the financial sector, I went back to my first love, music. For the last 12 years I have been coaching and training managers and directors within the corporate world. Outside of that world I design programmes using music to understand how we communicate, empathise, and show up as human beings and leaders.
Weaving through all of the above is a long journey of finding balance in my life after being brought to an abrupt stop with ‘burnout’ 15 years ago. Finding balance is for me not a destination but a continuous journey of noticing and course correcting as I attempt to flow through life with a bit more ease and resourcefulness. Running the Instant Pause is a beautiful way for me to do that for myself and for others.

As an energy and mindful productivity coach, yoga teacher, and inclusive leadership consultant, I have to balance my time and energy across different priorities in my life. I believe in managing energy, rather than time. Balancing your energies, moving between being and doing, is the key to unlocking your potential. I help busy, overwhelmed, procrastinating solopreneurs, freelancers and sidehustlers get more energy, more clarity, and more confidence to create the success they want in their business.
Pausing is an important part of that balance. Pausing creates space and respite from the busyness and noise of life. It’s the counter-balance we need – by slowing down and creating space, we allow the energy to flow for when we need to be in action.
