I’m the creator of Diamond Minds, helping people like you breakthrough your
blocks by using imaginative journaling and coaching. I used journaling during
the stressful periods in my life – moving countries, moving homes, relationship
breakdown. Now I use it for creative thinking, gathering insights, renewing
motivation and strengths-finding! I love working with individuals and
organisations brimming with ideas, hungry for growth, with creative sparks and
love for their work popping from the moment they wake up! And yet, there is
something getting in their way. That’s where I come in. I help clients move from
block to breakthrough using creative approaches of journaling and coaching. I am
creative and enthusiastic – and grounded and practical. In journaling I invoke
imagination and play as, often, writing from “I” can be tiring. What is needed
to jolt us out of our habitual or negative thinking are creative prompts. I
always thought the world didn’t end at the end of my street! Growing up on the
tiny island of Guernsey, I felt the pull of the other side, beyond St Peter Port
Harbour! And stepping out, I… …..spent about a decade working overseas – Russia
mostly, in Moscow and Ekaterinburg. I also lived in the Czech Republic, Japan,
Italy, France and Germany. I went on many work trips to Ukraine, Romania and
Bulgaria for human rights organisations. ……I co-founded and ran a number of
companies. Raise Your Game, a social enterprise which supported the young
unemployed start their own businesses in London, and coached young students in
pupil referral units and youth offending. Even earlier, I co-founded
Communicating Cultures which worked in Russia on an ethnic minorities and the
media project with partners the BBC Training School in Ekaterinburg and the
Interethnic Cooperation Centre which is still going strong!
