ABOUT

Heart Centred, Coastal Loving & Rebel Spirited...

Founder

Katie

I am an Integrated Wellbeing & Coaching Practitioner where I hold space to slow down, listen inward, and live differently. Through integrated wellbeing, coaching, therapeutic bodywork, and applied positive psychology, I guide people to reconnect with their inner wisdom, restore balance, and rediscover a deeper sense of joy and meaning. Through my coaching, I work with people who have sacrificed their time, energy, health, purpose and passion chasing the 'shoulds', rather than what they truly want. In my massage & restoration work I work with sports people, office workes and everyday humans who want to move better, ease discomfort and take precious time out for them. Every person that walks through my door tend to want to align to deep health, wellbeing, purpose, passion and a joyful life as their foundations - knowing the rest will happen if that is worked on first.

I believe that true wealth isn’t just financial, it’s the richness of your health, happiness, energy, and purpose. A guiding principle in my work, is the foundation that success should never come at the expense of wellbeing, relationships, or passions.

That’s why I take a holistic, evidence based approach to help clients rise above the chaos and reconnect with what truly matters. Together, we create the space to breathe, reflect, and step into the health, energy and joy they deserve! Designing a life that feels as good as it looks.

I specialise in guiding my clients to:

  • Create space, deep health and foundational wellbeing as the pillars of their life.

  • Navigate stress with practical tools that foster lasting resilience.

  • Harmonise work and life through intentional boundaries and mindful routines.

  • Master time and energy to focus on what truly matters.

  • Overcome mental clutter to enhance clarity, confidence, and joy.

  • Build meaningful connections for shared growth and inspiration.

  • Embrace change and uncertainty with grace and a renewed sense of purpose.

  • Align values with meaningful goals that drive fulfilment and success.

  • Redefine their wealth story as a holistic concept encompassing financial, physical, mental, and spiritual wellbeing.

My

Mission

At Balanced & Blissed, my mission is to help midlifers rise above stress, overwhelm and burnout. To navigate the chaos, collision and crisis of this time, and redefine success in health, happiness, business and life on their own terms, with clarity, vitality, and purpose at heart.

Rooted in positive psychology, coaching psychology, nervous system wisdom, and holistic wellbeing, my work supports deep transformation, guiding clients back to their inner wisdom so they can feel strong, calm, and aligned in every area of life. This is the path to Balanced & Blissed, the path to flourishing and the path to finding the space you deserve.

With a balanced, whole person approach, it's time to reclaim health, energy and JOY as central parts of our daily lives!

My

Vision

I envision a future where midlife women and men boldly reclaim their wellbeing — transforming this season from a story of endings into a sacred opportunity to rise with renewed vitality, purpose, and joy.

Guided by a preventative, holistic approach and grounded in evidence based science, we will reshape the narrative of midlife into one of wisdom, energy, and empowered new beginnings.

Midlife is not the closing of a chapter, it’s the threshold to your most meaningful, powerful work. I believe this stage holds the potential for profound clarity, balance, and personal transformation.

I am committed to helping those I work with continue to shine their light brightly, forging deep health, living with resilience, self-awareness, and authentic purpose well into the decades ahead.

Together, we are cultivating a new generation of sages: individuals who redefine success and wealth by harmonising physical, emotional, and spiritual wellbeing. As they rise, they inspire others, creating ripples of transformation that elevate families, communities, and the world around them.

Because when we foster a culture of flourishing, where emotional, financial, and energetic vitality are accessible to all, we shape a future guided not by fear or depletion — but by strength, wisdom, and love.

"Life is about exploration, discovery and curiosity. But also, about finding a love so deep for yourself that forgiveness, compassion and empathy, becomes part of your spirit."

How it all started...

I have had several careers in my 45+ years on the planet; retail assistant, mental health rehabilitation worker, college lecturer and holistic massage, movement and wellbeing practitioner. What I've learnt throughout these years of work, is that without the foundational pieces of wellbeing and deep health in place, success in any part of our lives either doesn't come, or comes at too much of a cost to enjoy it. Combine this realisation with some tough personal challenges and soul searching, I was curious to the power of Positive Psychology and Coaching Psychology, leading to today and becoming an Integrative Wellbeing & Coaching Practitioner!

I am drawn to living a life that has vitality, play and purpose as it's driving force, with deep health and foundational wellbeing an essential underpinning to every aspect of living a Balanced & Blissed life. I am blessed to have fought my way through PND, GAD, business success and loss, disabling health anxiety; and many battles of the body, heart and soul; bountiful with hardship and many mistakes (or growth edges as we coaches like to call them!).

Some fun facts about me...

When I was at a uni night out in 2000, I was asked to be a podium dancer for The Ministry Of Sound by a talent scout.

I didn't have my first child until I was 34, my second was born in the height of Covid just a few days before my 40th birthday!

I've lost count, but I think I have over 35 certifications! Yet, love of learning is not in my top strengths!

I love the positive effects of sea dipping, but absolutely hate going in the sea. I still do it though, with grit and determination!

At the age of 43, I secured an allotment plot. A dream of mine for 20 years! I hope it makes my long departed, allotment loving, grandfather proud and is a wonderful thriving organic edible space!

Coffee, without a shadow of a doubt, is a soul mate of mine. I make it work for my mental and physical health (I am good at biohacking lol).
