Human Design Solutions

Early on, I relied on my left brain way too much. I didn't know myself, and I let conditioning, fear, and over-sensitivity rule my life.

This led to choosing a wrong degree, starting in a wrong career, and being who I wasn't for many years.

I kept showing up in a certain way, and then blamed others for not really seeing me!
I kept feeling frustrated and angry, and didn't know why.

Gradually, I came to see that expression, creativity, empathy, inspiration, and intuition are all a big part of me, too.

I've embraced my left and right brain strengths, and worked through much of the pain, struggles, and resistance I had built up over the years.

Now, I bring everything I've learned to help others bring out their full potential and the parts of themselves they have ignored for too long.

Working with me, you'll get:
- My experience from working in different roles in four different countries
- My mindful, empathic, and intuitive attention to what's going on for you and what you need
- My analytical skills interpreting your BG5 Unique Design Blueprint (Human Design for business)

Originally from the UK, I worked in accounting before heading abroad at 26. I spent a year in Australia and then taught Business English in Japan, where I also wrote test items for their national English test company.

I moved to Canada in 2009 to live at a meditation center. Now I support the center virtually and run local classes here in Calgary. You're welcome to join the online meditation circle I co-founded in 2020 for people who want a regular meditation practice.

By living and working in mindful communities for 15 years, I've learned so much about myself and others, how teams interact, and how the shadow can wreak havoc. Human Design and BG5 came to me from a chance encounter when I challenged myself to meet a group of new people - the kind of thing I'm designed to do. It's given me a framework that brings all my skills together to help others.

"Hey! Where's the operating manual for this bag of skin and flesh I inherited?" 🤣.

Have you ever thought, 
"What's wrong with me?"
"Why do I keep doing this to myself?"

Worse still, has part of you given up? 

Well, I'm here to tell you:
There's nothing wrong with you, and you're not broken.

🙄 Take a moment, and reread that if you need to hear it again.

You never know where the next insight, shift, or that thing you needed to hear will come.

It's a big world, ripe with insights and different perspectives, so long as we're open to them 🤯.

If any of this resonates, you may be in the right place. 



As a mindful BG5 consultant, I can offer you a view of things you've likely not experienced before.

*** In even 3 sessions, you'll almost certainly get a-ha! moments. You'll have practical insights and experience validation and healing around situations or people that may have nagged at you for years.
You'll have a strategy you can experiment with at work and at home, that will open up new ways to make decisions and interact with people and even groups of people.

****** If we go deeper, we can shed light on the places where you likely get distracted, defensive, or uncommunicative. Where you create resistance.  ✅ All important things for a leader to know.
We can analyze the dynamics with a partner and even a team of people to improve communication and productivity.


Awareness of BG5 is growing. Since 2022, the Institute's courses are now accredited with IACET for Continuing Education Units (see my Linktree), and Human Resource Professionals are joining.

easyJet

An Integrated Management System brings together standards and requirements that are common in use by organisational functions helping to unify approach, centralise tools, support people in their work and make work easier.
As the Head of the Integrated Management System at easyJet, I lead a multifaceted team covering IMS Development, ISO and continuous improvement activities, IMS Delivery including Safety Data Information and Safety Meeting Management, Document Management and Safety, Security and Compliance critical training and Competency programmes.
In a large organisation within a highly regulated sector, complexity and silo working increases the potential for system risk to be realised, but the time to impact can extend out far longer than the realisation of more tangible safety related risk. However, poor system design, and by system I don't mean technology tools! can lead to organisational failure at its worst. This is why we continue to develop and improve our IMS with the ultimate aims being, to drive efficiencies in process, procedure and in the use of technology and automation tools, set standards and assess maturity to defined requirements and to ultimately make work easier for people.

Trust Operations Manager - Multi facility dry site in the sports & leisure sector

Aside from being a Dad of 2 boys that keep me busy outside of my professional day-to-day! I'm an experienced and purpose-driven senior leader operating at ‘Head Of’ level within a highly regulated, complex, organisation. 

I've proven expertise in integrated management systems, operational excellence, and continuous improvement, with a strong track record across sectors including aviation, IT services & printer services, telecoms procurement, education, facilities and sport & leisure. 

I'm skilled in leading high-performing teams, embedding values-led practices, and delivering impactful change through strategic planning, stakeholder engagement, and data-driven decision-making. 

For me, if we understand what is happening and deal only in fact, we can press ahead with our eyes open. I'm therefore passionate about creating clarity, driving efficiency, and building collaborative environments that empower people and enable excellence.

I'm driven by a strong sense of purpose and integrity and I bring a collaborative, people-first approach to leadership. 

I'm adaptable, insightful, and calm under pressure, I thrive in complex environments where strategic thinking and clear communication are essential but above all, I’m passionate about inspiring teams, building inclusive cultures, and delivering meaningful outcomes through innovation, continuous improvement, and values-led decision-making. 

My outlook is shaped by a belief in the power of engaged people, clear systems, and purposeful leadership to drive sustainable success.

Future roles have to ignite this passion, I have to feel like I'm adding value, that this value is making a difference and improving the organisation, business outcomes or the people I serve. Equally, trust, integrity and a 'can do' collaborative culture is where I thrive most, it's this type of workplace where real achievement is attained.
