i was creative before i knew i was brown| i created myself female before i was born| that was my first act of creation| & my first act of defiance|

Wild Roots: Nature-allied writing workshops for self-care for post-graduate research students of colour. Centre of Equity & Inclusion.
A skilled facilitator and mentor, I love collaborating with individuals, grassroots organisations, universities and more – to create unique workshops, courses and trainings – which lead to lasting transformation and healing, igniting imaginations, provoking conversations and building courage in individuals and communities.
My work is deeply rooted in anti-racist/colonial, decolonised, feminist and nature-allied practices. With a big dose of wonder.
If you’d like to explore working together, please get in touch with me here.
Mentoring
I am passionate about the power of one-to-one mentoring to help women discover their creative courage and voices, to pursue their passions and purposes, whatever stage of life they may be at. I tailor mentoring to individual needs and have a particular interest in using nature-allied practices alongside creative writing arts and nurturing the imagination.
Waiting list: if you would like to be added to my waiting list, please contact me here.
Please note: I prioritise mentoring women of colour, LGBTQI+, working class and disabled women.
