I have been a British expat mum in Barcelona for 8 years.
That’s 8 years of on-the-job training from one of the toughest educational institutions in the world (my kids and my inner world!).
I’ve graduated through different stages; ‘over-protective’ mother, ‘depressed’ mother, ‘angry’ mother to name a few. I know there are more stages to come and that’s ok because my kids are literally my best teachers when it comes to my self-development.
My mum abroad journey began with a home birth.
Why? Because I’d heard so many stories of women here wanting a natural birth but ending up having lots of medical interventions so I knew a home birth was for me. And I’m so thankful I did. It allowed me to experience the true nature and power of my body in the most indescribable way.
But from a trying-to-fit-in point of view, it was another way that I stood out, that I was different.
I’ve never fit in yet I always consciously tried to. I wasted so much of my life beating myself up about who I am instead of owning my uniqueness and building my life around that. Until my dad died. This sparked a sequence of events that led me to rekindle my spirituality, train as a Jungian Life coach, become an entrepreneur and start my own coaching practice to help other expat mums in their journeys of motherhood and self-discovery.
So here I am now. Almost 13 years living in Barcelona, 8 of those as an expat mum, and only now feeling comfortable in my own skin to express who I really am and what I’m all about.
I’m a spiritual woman concerned for the future of the planet for the sake of my children and humankind.
I am here to make any difference I can by practising compassion and living consciously whilst raising my girls to do the same. I am also very dark, funny and ready to go deep in a heartbeat!
