I’m a writer and facilitator living with my wife and sons on the North East coast of England. My work is about paying attention to what's present, and following wherever it leads.

Most days it’s somewhere in the tension between creativity, motherhood, ambition and the stories we tell ourselves about who we’re allowed to become.

I studied English at Newcastle University, and spent the first part of my career working in journalism, communications and public affairs.

Over the years I have organised conferences, interviewed authors and artists, taught yoga, supported women through major life transitions and written for national publications.

Today I write Body Story, a newsletter exploring the stories we tell ourselves about who we’re allowed to become.
