Hi, I'm Leah and I have a confession - I prefer dogs to people. I mean I like people, but my best friend is a chocolate Labrador and he is the most beautiful creature inside and out. My business helps quietly brave, big-hearted folk feel more alive, more themselves, and able to live life on their own terms doing things that truly make them happy. I provide coaching, workshops, events and share my message on my blog and podcast.
I have been running my business since 2012, and it has been the biggest personal development journey ever. I have learned how to be my own boss and also my own best friend. My career started working in drug & alcohol addiction services, and with children and young people in residential care. It paved the way for me learning and understanding how to support people in very difficult times. After 10 years of this work, my partner and I decided to travel the world. We spent 8 months travelling South America, New Zealand, Australia and South East Asia, and it opened my eyes to the many ways we can live a life and earn a living.
I qualified as a life coach in 2011 and started the business coaching students and teachers in schools to manage stress and anxiety. Over time this grew into other areas – delivering programmes and workshops for schools and workplaces. Now I run events and programmes in the community and online. I also coach people outdoors and teach them skills to take care of their wellbeing in nature, and my Soulful Sunrise event where I host an early morning dance party to send people into their day feeling uplifted and positive.
My business continues to grow, change and develop with me, and I like to have variety in my days. I feel it’s important to have a business that reflects me and the message I want to put out into the world and that is to help people know, understand and trust themselves, so that they can to fully experience how brilliant they are and make most of their lives.
