My passion for Peace & Path

As co-director of The Conscious Workplace, I am delighted to co-lead the Peace & Path retreat. Having experienced a few career transitions and health issues in my life has made me realise the importance of finding peace and path. 

Our programme has been borne out of a commitment to help and support individuals, communities, and workplaces navigate challenge. 

The experience of peace is one we cannot force. It is the ability to find a moment of tranquillity and centredness, even in chaos. It is essential for our health and overall wellbeing. 

From a place of peace, it becomes possible to harness intentions, develop passion and the courage to explore our individual path. Our path provides resilience and optimism as it guides us towards fulfilment and success in an ever-changing world.

My qualifications

My diagnosis of dyslexia in my fifties enabled me to recognise the challenges I faced when growing up and developing technical and executive leadership careers. 

Looking back, the struggles with reading, organising thoughts on paper, and issues with organisational skills and short-term memories were only too evident. With support, I was able to manage these. As a child, I was fascinated by the scientific and natural world. This led me to a career in science, then in business or industry, and now in health and wellness. My passion for following my curiosity allowed me to harness my skills for big-picture, creative and holistic thinking.

However, my passion for science is focused on its application. In an interview with the Emmy Award Nominee, Jill Nicolini, she noted my deep understanding of human nature. This is based on deep knowledge of physiology and neuroscience, coupled with the experiences of product innovation, leading people, teams and organisations and supporting those who are most vulnerable with a diagnosis of life-limiting health conditions.

My successes

I have been supporting the development of people, ideas, and systems for over thirty years. My success ranges from bringing ideas into new medicines, to developing new business processes and new approaches to patient care.  As a leader, members of my team have developed into Senior Executives all over the globe.

As a wellness coach, I have supported people navigate significant challenges. I was honoured to receive this feedback “ … five years ago now I had coaching sessions with you after my breast cancer treatment. You changed my life around and I am forever grateful. I’m still using the tools you shared with me to this day”. 

I look forward to welcoming you to Peace & Path at The Conscious Retreats. We invite you to embrace every opportunity for reflection, connection and rejuvenation. May this be a truly enriching experience and memorable chapter in your life.
