About

Be curious about new ways of working

I’m a qualified workplace wellbeing coach, trainer, speaker and founder of Curious Coaching. I’m also a late-discovered Autistic ADHD-er.

Constant curiosity has taken me from trying to understand the origins of the Universe as a particle Physicist, to delving into what it means to be neurodivergent in a world built for neurotypicals.

I think it's about time we stopped following everyone else's rules and started getting curious about what works for us.

Ok, I'm curious

You are unique, your approach to wellbeing should be too

I want you to know that you are already enough, exactly as you are.

There is no one-size-fits-all, or manual for how to build a sustainable carer.

You are unique, you think differently and have different experiences. Let's treasure this and learn to listen and understand what is happening for you, rather than getting overwhelmed by all the things you are told you should be doing.

It’s not all about you as an individual, it’s about the intersection between you and your environment. It’s about empowering you to set clear boundaries at work, as well as untangling years of internalised ableism.

Finding your joy and moving towards ease

It's ok to look for the easy way

Society would love you to believe that if something is worth doing it has to be hard work.

But are the things you find joyful hard work?

When we come from a place of compassion and curiosity we can rediscover the glimmers that support our health and wellbeing.

Special interests, hyperfocus and flow states can all help us feel more like ourselves again. They give us the resources and capacity to do the other important things in life.

I'd love to talk about this

Are we a good fit?

You're curious to see what work life would be like when you start putting yourself first and asking for what you need

You like the sound of quiet activism through self-care and modelling the way for others

You appreciate people who are direct and get to the point, without all the small talk

You're ready to challenge all of the 'should-ing' and neuro-normative standards, and instead seek out what works for you

You want to work with someone who 'gets it' without feeling like you have to explain or translate everything

I am an active listener, here to help you understand yourself and your needs.

Using kindness and compassion, I will encourage you to be curious and experiment with new approaches that work with your brain.

My Autistic Joy & Hyperfixations

I find joy in movement, music and mother nature - my 3 M's.

I can (and do) spend hours:

dancing around the house with my noise-cancelling headphones on

playing piano - usually something by Ludovico Einaudi

pottering around my garden, tending to veggies, waiting for seedlings to sprout and smelling the roses

exploring the forest with the floof (see below)

I am obsessed with Japan, everything from the delicious food to Studio Ghibli films. I spent a month there in 2015 and promised myself I'd be back.

Current hyperfixations:

Autism and ADHD, particularly relating to wellbeing
Aurora's album - 'What happened to the heart?'

Who's the floof?

I have the best co-worker in the world, my Chief of Floof - Harley - the golden retriever. Like me, she’s endlessly curious so often sneaks in to see who I am talking to on Zoom calls
