About me

Helping you powerfully manage the thoughts in your head, so you can channel your fks where it matters most
I love sharing personal and relatable stories, speaking real and raw truths, and holding people accountable for being the answer to their own life.
I’m an Authenticity Coach, Speaker and soon to be Author, who inspires legends to come back to their real and authentic selves and channel their fks towards what truly matters to them.
Through my group coaching programs, global ZEROFKS movement, meditation platform, podcast, keynote speaking, and events, my work is changing thousands of people’s lives by helping people be real and free to be themselves. And believe me, that’s one big ass journey!

Prior to who I am today, all I knew was a life of misery, pain and trauma ...
I haven’t read self-help in a book or studied it (although I have done plenty of study), I’ve lived it. From childhood sexual abuse, bulimia, drug addiction, chronic pain, pain medication addiction and brain surgery, these experiences messed me up something good! There were times I didn’t want to live and felt like I was being punished by the Universe. Shit got real dark. But the darkness was my invitation to find a new way forward and I made it my mission to do the work to live a better life.
From the ages of 18- to 25-years old, I suffered from chronic nerve pain and a congenital brain malformation that culminated in brain surgery. When that didn’t fix me I became depressed and battled suicidal thoughts. I felt like I was at a dead end, until a neurology professor convinced me to shift my focus to the inside in order to help the outside. Everything changed after that. I swapped medicine for meditation, started listening to and moving my body, practiced visualisation, listened to my inner voice and completely rewired my brain. Ten months later, I was unrecognisable.
Was it easy? Nope. Did it happen overnight? I wish. Did I want to give up sometimes? Ah, yah! But there was a vision in my mind and heart that kept calling me to move forward, and it has led me here.
My soul is lit and alive to inspire legends like you, to help you manage the shit storm inside your head, to help you know the false you from the real you, to support you in awakening the power inside, to be who you were born to be and give ALL your fks towards that!

Life hasn't always been easy, but I've faced each challenge head and heart on, giving rise to a force within that is unstoppable.
I believe my experiences happened for a reason – to serve others and give them the same wake-up call that I so badly needed. I may have taken the long route, but I’m here to share the shortcuts and challenge you to level-up! Thank you for trusting me with your journey – I can’t wait to meet the real you.
This was an accidental movement that has reached a global audience, inspiring people from all over the world to give zerofks through movement. Here's a little story how the movement came about ...

It all started with a little manifestation
I was doing a manifestation process and tuning-in to get guidance about my next best step. The outcome I wanted to manifest was to create wealth and abundance through my creative expressions (aka, making money doing shit that I love). So I did my little manifesto process and the word that I received in bold letters was, DANCE. I was like, “huh, what you mean dance? Does this mean I open a dance studio or pole dance to make money?”

How will dance create wealth and abundance?
Anyhoo, after trying to make sense of it all (and getting nowhere fast), I decided to go into my loft space and dance. I’ve always loved to dance and have since a kid. When I was in my mid-twenties I got into free dance (no choreography) and fell in love with the freedom of self expression. So I turned on a tune and started dancing.

Post it to social media, seriously?
Half way through the song I was guided to record it (which I had never done before) and I thought, “fk it, okay!”. You see I trust my inner guidance system so when it speaks, I listen and act. When the song finished I watched it back and was guided to post it to instagram and share with my community this practice. This is when my ego played up big time and said, “ah, no way! If you do you’ll look like a loser. You don’t look good in the video. People will think you’re up yourself. No-one cares about you dancing!” Truth be told, I was afraid of being rejected. Twenty minutes of mental back and forth I said, “fk it, just share the damn video!”

Okay, well let's be creative with it
I thought I’d be playful with the messaging and reached out to my very clever sis-in-law who helped me construct a unique hashtag. We were on the phone and I was telling her the back story, it was a Tuesday afternoon and she said, “so basically you’re giving zerofks by posting it and it’s a Tuesday, how about #zftuesday?” That is legit how we created the hashtag. I posted the video and threw my phone across the room not wanting to see the comments, but there was nothing but celebration and people commenting, wishing they could do this and not care what they look like or what others think.

The movement took on a life of its own
DM’s were coming in with people saying, “I can’t wait for your video next Tuesday!” I was like, “ahhh, for real, they want more of this?” This went on for six weeks and then people started sending in their videos of themselves dancing and giving zerofks. The online social media movement turned into live dance events, national tours, high-school and corporate requests to talk to their students and teams about the movement and then dance! The zerofks motto has become something everyone can live into and apply to their lives which is very special to be apart of.
