I was born with Cerebral Palsy, but it has not held me back. I am married and have a daughter. I spent twenty years making observational documentaries for the BBC and CH4, becoming a highly respected producer. After the birth of my daughter, I retrained, founding Potent Coaching in 2006. I now have an international client base working as a Master Transformative Coach and Three Principles Practitioner, as well as training prospective coaches and practitioners. 

My parents did not focus on my limitations but on my potential. My disability has been a tool for personal development and growth, prompting a journey of enquiry which began when I was 17 and still continues today. I have travelled the world studying with teachers from many traditions. I now understand that despite our thinking to the contrary, we are whole and perfect exactly as we are. Our inherent nature is love and that we are resilient whatever our circumstances. 

My professional and personal experience helps me to guide my clients in transforming their understanding of themselves and the world around them. I hope now to support families with disabilities on this journey. As Marcel Proust said, “The real voyage of discovery consists not in seeking new landscapes but in having new eyes.”
