ANXIETY & COMMUNICATION COACH | WRITER
Untangle Anxiety. Restore your Voice.
There comes a point in your life when you hit a stagnation point.
It doesn’t matter how far you’ve come or how much you’ve achieved, the constant background stress and weight of expectation are leaving you exhausted.
Your mind is hyper-vigilant, your body feels tense, and when the pressure mounts, your communication freezes up.
You don’t need complex theories. You may have spent a long time trying to think your way through it.
Anxiety doesn't always respond to more thinking. Sometimes, the way forward begins with noticing
what's happening in your body, finding your breath, and creating enough space to hear your own voice again.
Feel steady when it matters most.
Find your confidence.
I work with people who know they are capable, but find that anxiety, nerves or overwhelm can get in the way.
Maybe you go blank in meetings.
Maybe your heart races before you speak.
Maybe you overthink, freeze or avoid things you really want to do.
Maybe life has changed and you no longer feel quite like yourself.
It’s not about never feeling nervous, it’s about feeling empowered to raise our self awareness in order to make conscious choices.
That's the work I now offer: learning how to meet yourself differently, lean into your body, master your breath, and anchor your nervous system so you can access a clear voice and clear mind when it matters most.
Through 1:1 online coaching, I help you understand what is happening in your body and mind when anxiety takes hold, and develop ways to come back to calm, confidence and self-trust.
My approach draws on 15 years working as a detective in high-pressure situations, alongside years of training and practice in yoga, somatic work, Yoga Nidra, breath, body and voice.
I know this territory from both sides.
I've been the person whose legs turned to jelly before a driving test. I've struggled to get through police interviews despite knowing the job inside out. I've fluffed a piano recital when my fingers seemed to stop working. I've worked with women experiencing anxiety around pregnancy and birth.
And I've also learned how to stand on a stage and speak.
My work takes different forms.
Sometimes, it’s a conversation.
Sometimes, it’s a coaching session.
Sometimes, it’s a book.
Sometimes, it’s a story on stage.
Alongside my coaching work, I'm a writer and author. Much of my writing explores the same territory I work with clients around: identity, change, expectation, the stories we carry and what happens when we begin to find our own voice.
So while my work may look like a collection of different things, there is a thread running through all of it.
Liberate your voice, your heart and your soul.
The Book of Revelations is a book my soul wrote for yours.
Full of clues and messages around liberation of heart, soul and developing your unique voice, told through the story of a woman, transitioning from one way of being into another.
You are held, cover to cover, in the 70 stories.
This is the book for you. For right now.

When the dark muse comes calling, will you turn to stone or resurface?
The Reckoning is a poetic exploration of our relationship with Faith, Hope and Trust, when it seems nothing outside is materialising, despite our ‘faithful’ commitment to ‘inner work’.
The Reckoning is for you, who went all in with the feathers, incense and tarot cards. For you, who took the leap, expecting the riches of the Light and was instead met by She, the inner ‘dark’ voice who was still living inside you, even though you thought you were SO spiritual.
In The Reckoning, author Sophie Leone surrenders her personal story to the inner dark muse and her spiky, no-nonsense energy, giving her free rein to unearth and express the ‘hidden in the body’ truths as we bear witness to the weight of unmet expectations.

“I am Sophie Leone” the one woman play, adapted from “The Book of Revelations”, written, produced and performed by Sophie Leone.
This is the story of a woman who radically chose to detach from ‘the system’ (15 years as a police detective), in a society where to let go of it all and surrender to oneself is seen as either the ‘mental’ or the ‘courageous’ thing to do, depending on the level of ‘success’ you are judged as having on this quest.
