I am an inspirational poet, writer and speaker. I take everyday situations that people can relate to and, with rhyming verse, turn them from something mundane into something magic. The inspirations I write speak to the heart. They create a positive, conscious shift in people and allow them to better connect with themselves and others.

I feel that people of all ages will laugh and be touched by this beautiful, uplifting book. I also love how there are mandalas to colour and blank pages for journaling – some lovely personal touches. My son and I sometimes read a poem from Life’s a Mango before heading out for the day, which helps us breathe, laugh and be thankful. My favourite poem is” Thankyou ABC” which helps me slow down and remember all the many gifts in my life and I feel joyful in gratitude for these. A lovely way to start the day!
