My story
My purpose in this lifetime is to live a life I love and help others to do the same. But it wasn't always like this for me.
I spent 30+ years in the corporate world in sales leadership and management roles. Prior to starting Infinite Mind Coaching & Consulting, I was a Senior Vice President in a global software company. I specialised in fast growth sales environments, leading high performing teams and smashing targets. I was a typical Type A personality - a high achieving, over-performing, self-motivated perfectionist. I've thrived on the constant travel and being a regular speaker on the conference circuit in all things sales, customer success, scale-up teams, strategic growth and more.
Until it nearly killed me. 3 hospitalisations with Burnout in 5 years led me to give up the corporate grind and redirect myself to educating and healing myself so I could live in the service of others, helping them to prevent and/or overcome stress, anxiety, depression and burnout.
I'm passionate about helping create healthier workplaces and equipping employees with simple and effective tools that can help them with improved Workplace Wellbeing in just a few minutes, anywhere, anytime. Check out my Workplace Wellbeing Programs to learn more.
When not working with amazing clients achieving incredible life changes, I run a Women's Empowerment business called Queen of my Own Universe, and am the host of the Living the Queen Life Podcast
I'm a single mother of 2 sons (20 and 17 yo), 2 cats and 1 dog. I live by the beach on the Mornington Peninsula in Melbourne, Australia.
