I run life-writing workshops with a strong life-coaching element, using visualisation, guided meditation and journalling to help get to the core of your story and hear your inner voice. I'm passionate about working with women, migrant communities and the marginalised in today's society to build inclusion. I'm tired of being the little brown girl in the corner.
