“Most people need love and acceptance a lot more than they need advice.” — Bob Goff

I work with adults and kids who are helping make the world a better place Helping them to achieve their goals, connecting them to the relevant people, and building communities around their mission, whilst teaching them how to use engaging collateral to embrace on and offline communities - essentially to grow their idea/business.

A "portfolio" mum, teacher, and accidental author, living in Guildford, Surrey UK with my husband, Paul, a journalist and fellow wildlife gardener and allotment grower, plus our two teens.

I have a ​BA Hons 2.1 in Psychology & Education, a PGCE in teaching, and a lifelong passion for human potential and what makes people tick (which turns out not to be stickers and reward charts).

This week's video⤵️: A random dialogue with Neil, a local Surrey activist from @greenpeaceuk @zerocarbonguildford. With gratitude to Parker PR for his patience and filming skills! (My phone mic is a problem too, am investigating which one to get, anyone?)

My interests include education reform, community engagement, social media coaching, entrepreneurship, innovation, connecting dots, technology, systems thinking, adventure travel, cycling, yoga and meditation, wildlife gardening, and growing chillis.
