Recently, someone asked me, "what are my three core values. I loved this question; I'd never really considered it before. Interestingly, they are all inextricably connected.

The first was obvious,
Freedom: There have been opportunities that I have turned down that to an outsider would have appeared to be a perfect fit because I could see that they would limit my potential for autonomy. I am here for the complete human experience and do not wish for that to be restricted unnecessarily. This helps me to feel alive and function authentically within the world

Authenticity: This allows me to show up in the world with the least amount of masks as I can, deconditioning tall poppy syndrome (common in Kiwis as we were taught its “not cool” to stand out) and the freedom that authenticity creates from not needing to pretend to be someone else.

Integrity: The most important aspect of my work is for me to create safe spaces for clients, and the only way I can do that is through holding a high standard of integrity, where people feel a sense of trust.

Especially as I guide people deeper towards understanding and trusting themselves, the more they become aware of things that are out of alignment, which holds me accountable

These values aren’t just mine—they’re the invitation for my clients to claim their own.
