Tending a home, a family and a few quiet projects in the mountains of Peru.
A little about meHome is the centre of everything I do. Making it warm, beautiful and nourishing for the people I love is the work I feel most made for.
I’ve spent more than fifteen years living between India and Peru, immersed in traditions that treat daily life as sacred: how food is prepared, how a space is kept, how people are touched and spoken to. That way of seeing shapes how I mother, how I keep house, and everything I make with my hands.
For many years I worked as an intimacy and relationship coach, walking with women through the patterns that keep love at arm’s length. I still take on a small number of clients, but my centre of gravity has shifted toward home, motherhood and the slower crafts that have been calling me for a long time.
This page is simply a place to find me, and to follow what grows from here.
I still work one-to-one with a few women at a time, by invitation and application only.
If this is what brought you here, the book is the place to start. It holds the heart of what I teach, and it’s where every woman I work with begins.
