Along the way to discovering my true purpose – helping others become the best versions of themselves while living happily and healthily – I have gathered a diverse set of skills and knowledge as a mentor, photographer, yacht master, wood craftsman, and co-owner of a smallholding in the Yorkshire Dales. I now enjoy sharing my unique blend of experiences through my offerings in Sound Therapy and in crafting personalised items, mostly from wood. My aim is to introduce as many people as possible to the benefits of sound therapy.

Living on land for the past 20 years has shown us how to create environments that help others reconnect with their authentic lives. This often involves encouraging people to think less and feel more. However, old habits can be challenging to break, and sometimes individuals need a little help to get “reconnected.”

My extensive background in the Media, Digital, and Events industries at a senior executive level revealed a consistent truth: people who are happy in their jobs tend to excel at them. Encouraging authenticity in the managers I worked with led to positive outcomes, so while the leap from managing media and events businesses to becoming a professional Sound Therapist and crafting personalised Talking Sticks may seem unusual, there are deep connections between the two.

With my training as an engineer, I have always enjoyed creating with my hands. My father, a photographer, taught me the basics of photography, sparking my creativity. Now, living close to nature on a smallholding allows me to combine my practical skills to craft unique themed objects from both native and exotic woods, helping individuals express their true selves and focus on their life’s purpose.

My custom-made personalised artifacts include hand-carved “Talking Sticks” and exquisite multi-wood rattles. More recently, I have introduced “Nature’s Bracelets” for both men and women.
