hello, i'm bessy | Teacher | Author | Speaker |

I help working women move from reactive and overwhelmed
to calm, clear, and in control, at work, at home, and within themselves. 

For a long time, I looked like I had it together.

I was working, raising three kids, building a career, keeping everyone where they needed to be and thinking about approximately 47 things at once.

And for the most part, I loved my life.

But somewhere in the middle of doing all the things, I realised how easy it is to lose yourself in the roles you’re really good at playing.

Mother. Partner. Professional. Friend. Daughter. The person who remembers the permission slip, books the appointment and somehow knows we’re nearly out of toothpaste.

That’s really what Mindfully Bessy has become about.

The mental load. Ambition. Motherhood. Identity. Relationships. Overwhelm. And the strange experience of being incredibly grateful for your life while also occasionally wondering where exactly you went in it.

My work draws on mindfulness, nervous system support and behaviour change, but really, I’m interested in the bigger picture: helping women feel more like themselves while navigating work, motherhood, ambition, relationships and everything they’re carrying.

I’m not interested in helping women become better at doing more.

I’m interested in creating space for us to think, laugh, reconnect with ourselves and work out what we actually want underneath all the noise.

Through my writing, speaking, retreats and the things I create, I share what I’m learning as I figure it out too.

Not perfectly.

Just a little more consciously.

 A few days away from the noise.

Good food, meaningful conversations, movement, laughter and space to think about yourself for a change.

My retreats are designed for women who are used to holding a lot and could use some time to reconnect, reset and work out what they want next.
