I am truly living my dream life.

Every single morning I wake up and feel extremely grateful for my life. I've worked hard and taken big risks to live this magical (and carefully designed) life I'm living in beautiful Byron Bay. 

I meditate in the morning, I work from home in my beautiful office, I walk my kids to school, I swim in the ocean, I eat healthy food and move my body every single day. 

I have several thriving businesses I LOVE. 

NONE OF IT is by accident; IT's design.

My passion is running female-focussed businesses. I am the founder of both Barre Body, Australia's first boutique barre brand, and Bende, a Pilates studio in Byron Bay. The lines between my business and personal life are very blurred because I absolutely LOVE my work and I treat the people I work with as family. Running these businesses is a dream come true. 

My superpower is helping women shine. I love to nurture the women around me to thrive and succeed and work & live with passion and empathy. And a healthy dose of fun! 

I have a Bachelor of Business, majoring in marketing, and prior to creating Barre Body, I worked for 10 years for various brands in Australia, including Ford, Telstra, Wagamama, Bonds and Oroton, before leaving the corporate world to pursue my true passion: wellness. My life has evolved in the decade since; a husband, two beautiful children, four businesses, more pets than I can manage, and a sea change to Mullumbimby, near Byron Bay. One thing hasn't changed; I am passionate, powerful woman, relentlessly pursuing my dreams.

I BELIEVE IN:

Love over fear. Making hearts sing. Drinking lots of water. Freckles and smile lines. Kindness. Taking big risks.

I'm NOT ABOUT:

Late nights. Mean people. Carrying heavy things. Anchovies. Hustle for the sake of hustle. 

YOU CAN FIND ME:

With my beautiful family. Working hard (and loving every minute). Swimming in the ocean. Reading. 

daily rituals

Morning meditation, cuddles with my (mostly) adorable children + lovely (mostly) hubby, good food, moving my body, and simple skincare rituals.
