About Lucy
Since childhood, I have been captivated by the complexities of being human. I am by nature, strongly empathic and intuitive.
I would see how people would rush to dilute, dismiss or simply not even notice the pain and needs of themselves or others. To me it was like reading a map, or words from a book. I somehow could always just naturally sense what a person needed in that moment to cope with their discomfort or fear. This will sound really strange, but it’s like a higher, wiser aspect of every one of us knows what we need to do, hear or attend to but because we are swamped in painful emotions and fear, we are not yet able to receive that direction.
But I can see it.
Like another person’s own heart and higher consciousness directing me; which longs only to restore and grow somehow communicates to me / through me what needs to be done.
So the intuitive insightful aspect of me has always been there, and I have learned many therapeutic practices and approaches to keep in my tool kit. I started my career as a Nurse in Intensive Care. I went from there to setting up a business I ran for 16 years called Catching Rainbows Fertility. I had the privilege of working with hundreds of couples who needed support to overcome infertility, cope with pregnancy loss and find their way to their children.
I emerged from that heart-led business to this one because I felt the pull to do so. It was as though Catching Rainbows had completed her cycle and it was time for a new expansion on my part.
I have weathered so many deep storms myself over the years. Situations and events that have left me broken down and scared I wouldn’t find my way through. The one thing that I have leaned on every single time is my faith in what feels like the magic of humanity. How we are pre programmed to heal whether we try to or not. We can impact our well being, our experiences and the world around us by how we align with ourselves.
I am here because I strongly believe in our ability to find ways to experience every emotion on the spectrum without always having to be swamped in fear and doubt. We are here to grow, to follow what we are pulled towards, and above all, just to connect and share.
I am a spiritual junkie with my feet firmly on the ground of this incredible earth. I live with my children, Ru and Polly who teach me more about life and humanity than I could have ever imagined; my kind, patient and gentle husband Joe, two divine cats and my beloved house plants...
The experience of being human is a privilege and yet at times excruciatingly hard. It feels like my real gift to share here is how to best manage those hard times, alchemise pain into purpose whilst honouring how tough it can be to do that. My greatest joy is seeing people allow the shadows to peel back and more light to pour through.
