INTRODUCING YOUR GUIDE

A woman taking a selfie outdoors in a desert landscape at sunset, wearing a black beanie with a headlamp.

I’ve lived in Central Australia for the past 16 years, and this place continues to shape me. Being on this land has taught me to slow down, to really listen, and to notice what’s happening within me and around me. It’s also where I’ve come to understand how deeply land and culture support people through times of change.

I’m trained in rites-of-passage work and have spent years witnessing peoples growth whilst visiting out here on country. I see how easy it is these days to rush through change without pausing to acknowledge it, and I believe that taking time to mark these moments truly matters. These journeys create space for mothers and daughters, and for women of all ages, to come together, feel supported, and remember they don’t have to do it alone.

At the heart of what I offer is time and space—time to pause, space to reflect, and gentle support to move forward feeling clearer and more confident. I trust that when we slow down and allow the land to be part of the process, people find what they need in their own way
