Monica has trained extensively in somatic, energetic and embodied practices over the past twenty years. She supports leaders and coaches to connect to a deep sense of purpose and to develop authentic embodied presence which increases their impact and influence. By accessing greater awareness and alignment, her clients become more empowered and empowering of others. Through practices of mindfulness and embodiment they can become more centred and resilient and capable of maintaining clarity and inclusivity in the midst of organisational flux.

“Partnership, depth and authentic modelling are the hallmarks of my approach. I believe that as Coaches and Leaders we are “the instrument” and as such self-care and attention to quality relationships are vital. I adopt a systemic view, helping you to see the bigger picture and to understand how you are impacted by and impact on those around you and your environment. I am passionate about the power of self-cultivation and mindfulness as a way to release the potential of others.”
