A little more of the story behind my work…

I grew up on a farm in Ireland, close to the land and to a slower way of life. In my twenties, I moved to London to pursue a career in fashion and film. I eventually worked with Florence and the Machine, touring internationally—a role full of excitement and creativity. But beneath the surface, I was struggling. I felt anxious and disconnected, constantly seeking ways to numb or escape what I didn’t yet know how to face.

A turning point came when someone I loved dearly took his own life. The grief that followed was so painful that it woke me up, as is often the hidden gift of loss. I gave up my party lifestyle, began addressing my addictions, and embarked on a journey of self discovery.

I paused my life in London and travelled to Peru, where I spent a year living in the Amazon and working with plant medicine. It was a time of deep unravelling—stripping away the attachments and identities I had built, and beginning to reconnect with a more honest sense of self.

That journey continued for several years as I travelled, studied, and immersed myself in different cultures and healing traditions. I trained in yoga and meditation in India, worked with teachers who helped me understand the ego and the Self, and began exploring ancestral and collective patterns that shaped how I saw the world. My work with the Kriya Lightning Foundation deepened my awareness of the subtle body and helped me reconnect with the intelligence of the heart.

As I slowed down, my creativity began to return. Alongside my work with others, I began making art again—expressing my connection to nature and the earth. This creative thread now weaves into how I hold space, offering a grounding and nourishing environment for others to reconnect with their own inner wisdom and imagination.

In 2023, I founded Síolta—a holistic wellbeing community that brings together practitioners across a range of modalities. Our focus is on collaboration, accessibility, and building community through shared knowledge and care.

Alongside this, I support a small number of heart-led businesses through Of Earth & Sky, my boutique creative studio. I offer branding, consultancy, and design to help others bring their work into the world with clarity and integrity. It’s a natural extension of my path—supporting others to share what matters most to them.

I live in Cork, West Ireland, and work with people both in person and online. I’ll always be learning, and while I don’t have it all figured out, I’m committed to sharing what I’ve gathered so far with honesty and heart.

If you’ve read this far, I’d love to hear from you.

With love,
