My Story
I’m a somatic coach, educator, and creator of The 3 Minute Pause, host of The 3 Minute Pause Podcast and Founder of Befriending Vulnerability.
With 26 years of experience working with people through complex emotional and personal challenges, my work is grounded in helping you understand yourself, the patterns you repeat, and the experiences that shape the way you move through the world.
I believe you are not a problem to be fixed and that real change begins when you create enough space to get curious about what is happening beneath the surface.

The 3 Minute Pause came from living the work
I didn't create The 3 Minute Pause because I found a theory I wanted to teach. I created it because I had lived the process myself.
I needed tools that worked in real life, when I was travelling, with my family, walking through a city, sitting on a beach, or simply trying to get through an ordinary day. I didn't want my life to stop so I could work on myself. But I also recognised that life was where I was being triggered.
So I needed a way to work with feeling and processing my emotions while I was living with them.
That is why these resources exist.
The journals, workbooks, courses, and tools are designed to help you move beyond simply understanding your patterns and begin working with them. They take you from knowing how to deal with your emotions to having a practical way to handle the feelings.
A pause. A question. A place to begin.
These resources are the how
You can listen to a podcast, read a book, or understand why you react the way you do.
But eventually, you need to know what to do when it is happening.
The resources inside The 3 Minute Pause are designed to give you that starting point. They offer practical, accessible ways to pause, recognise what is happening inside you, and begin working with your reactions in real time.
They are the early steps.
And as those smaller pauses begin to create more awareness and reduce the intensity of the patterns you're living with, there is space to go further through coaching.
Because I know what these tools can do.
I have lived them. I have used them. And The 3 Minute Pause exists because I needed a way to change without stepping out of my life to do it.
Okay, now it’s your turn.
