Where did you complete your training (or where are you still in training)?
I completed my breathwork facilitator training at the beginning of September 2026.
What do you enjoy about breathwork and how has it helped you?
I love that breathwork gives me a practical way to understand myself and regulate my nervous system. It has helped me become more aware of my patterns and reactions, while teaching me how to work with them rather than simply think about them. It has become a daily tool for feeling more grounded, present and connected to myself.
What is your personal journey?
My journey with breathwork started with a desire to learn. I was curious about the breath, the nervous system and how breathwork could support people, so I began exploring it through training and practice. What I did not expect was how much the learning would turn back towards me.
As I learned more, breathwork became a mirror. The more I understood about the nervous system, regulation, patterns and our responses to stress, the more I started noticing those things in myself. It brought my own habits, reactions and ways of coping into my awareness in a way that felt very real. I could no longer just learn about these things as concepts. I was experiencing them myself.
One of the biggest parts of that journey has been learning to actually feel my emotions rather than always trying to understand, control or move past them. I have spent a lot of my life being very capable, staying busy, getting things done and relying heavily on my mind. Being emotional or vulnerable could sometimes feel uncomfortable, and even embarrassing. Breathwork has given me a different relationship with that.
It has shown me that I do not have to justify an emotion before I am allowed to feel it. I do not have to understand exactly where it came from or make it disappear. Sometimes I can simply notice what is happening in my body, breathe, and allow myself to experience it. There is something very freeing about not being ashamed of having feelings.
My own experiences have shaped the way I now see breathwork. I have experienced moments where it has challenged me, moments where it has brought things to the surface that I would rather have avoided, and moments where it has given me a sense of space and connection that thinking alone could not. That has made the work much more personal for me.
What started as learning a modality gradually became a process of learning myself. I am still on that journey, and I think that is important. I do not want to teach from the position of having everything figured out. I want to share what I continue to experience, learn and discover, and create a space where other people can explore themselves without feeling that they need to have all the answers either.
What do you stand for, and what do you stand against?
I stand for the belief that we all have far more inner strength, wisdom and capacity than we often realise. I believe that these qualities are naturally within us, but life, experiences, expectations and the environments we grow up in can sometimes create layers around them. Over time, we can become disconnected from that part of ourselves and forget what we are truly capable of.
I stand for creating the space to reconnect with that inner capacity rather than constantly looking outside ourselves for the next answer, solution or validation. For me, breathwork is one of the tools that can help us peel back some of those layers and experience ourselves more honestly.
I stand against the idea that we need to fix ourselves because there is something fundamentally wrong with us. I believe there is a difference between growing and constantly trying to become someone we think we should be. Growth, for me, is about becoming more connected to who we already are and having the courage to meet ourselves where we are.
What is your greatest wish for your clients
My greatest wish is for my clients to reconnect with themselves and realise that they are more capable than they may currently believe. I want them to understand their own patterns, feel more connected to their bodies and nervous systems, and develop the confidence to respond to life rather than constantly feeling at the mercy of it.
I also want them to understand that regulation is not about being calm all the time or living in some permanent state of zen. Life is going to throw difficult, unexpected and uncomfortable situations at us. The goal is not to avoid those experiences, but to have the awareness and tools to meet them, move through them and recover from them.
Ultimately, I want my clients to leave with a stronger relationship with themselves, greater trust in their own capacity, and practical tools they can actually use when life gets messy.
My Bio
I believe breathwork should be practical, accessible and relevant to real life. I’m particularly interested in the space between awareness and action, and in helping people use the breath as a tool they can take with them beyond the session, into everyday life, challenges and everything in between.
