Part of my journey has been to work on my own Ikigai; my soul purpose. This
beautiful experience began after transitioning from Headship and into freelance
coaching and consultancy in 2020. I continue to work on my raison d’etre, by
recognising what it is that I am good at, what brings me joy, and what my
family, my community and my clients need. Leadership is about taking people on a
journey to a better place, but is also about being a leader in your own life and
learning to love yourself. Today, I am an accredited Resilient Leadership, Life
Story and Therapeutic Arts Coach. I am also the proud Network Leader for
HeadsUp4HTs, an incredible community of aspiring, serving and former
Headteachers across the Uk and beyond.
