Meet Sophia

Lover of the inner landscapes of humanity.

Let me take you down memory lane. To 2004, to be precise.

It was the year that ‘burned-out criminal lawyer’ became my middle name and the emotional impact of one too many human rights cases finally caught up with me.

I needed to switch off. I needed to step away.

So, my then boyfriend and I escaped to Central America on what was meant to be the adventure of a lifetime. And I honestly had every intent to emerge stronger on the other side.

What I didn’t know was that one split second in Cuba would shift my perspective and take my life down a completely different path.

That day, things started to derail when I ignored the swirling, stabbing sensations in my belly that told me to give the horse ride a miss. Two hours later, I found myself under a tractor barely breathing with a punctured lung, internal bleeding and a shattered leg.

In those moments of being squished into the earth, on the precipice of death, I experienced oneness with everything. It was an incredible feeling. I became what I can only describe as the essence of love. I woke up to the truth of my intuition. And I awoke to an innate desire to support myself and others to be in a deep space of loving connection. I understood that this is essential if we are to create the compassionate, caring world I had always longed for.

That moment saw me commit to my own holistic self-development process, still integral to my life. Meditation, embodiment practices and nature connectivity keep supporting me into more love and self-trust.

It also shifted my career towards international humanitarian work, indigenous community development, and trauma-focused counselling for refugees, before a lengthy period in holistic psychology.

It’s this breadth of lived experience that has sparked a fundamental passion to support curious, caring souls like you to trust your inner authority and live a deeply purposeful, aligned life.

That’s if you’re ready for the journey!

Every zebra comes with its own unique pattern.

The same goes for us zebra souls.

We have our unique ideas, hopes and aspirations for a more co-operative and caring world.
Whatever they look like…
…they deserve to shine.
YOU deserve to shine!

Zebras: The new black sheep

They’re courageous, curious and won’t fit in the box.

I never liked being called a “black sheep”. It’s unique, sure, but it’s dark, a bit dreary and often portrayed negatively. I like to think of us instead as zebras. “Zebras” feels like a much better way to describe the innovators, the changemakers, the creatives, those who don’t fit in a box. Why? Because they are playful. They embrace the light and the dark. The yin and the yang. They are courageous, curious AND no two zebras have the same stripes.

Zebra souls have their own unique ideas, hopes and aspirations for a more co- operative and caring world.

These deserve to shine! You deserve to shine!

Thrive within connection.

Each Live and Lead™ group component allows you to expand your journey with like-minded souls and nature by your side. Everything comes from a space of intuitive flow and grounding where time in nature, embodied movement and meditation nurture your experiences.

Expand with depth.

Every exercise facilitates your inner journey with a focus on diving deep within yourself and you in relationship, because the truth of who we are is found in the depths of exploration and connection.
