When a woman is deeply connected to herself, she awakens her natural aliveness—and from that place, she can love more deeply, live more fully, and be more authentically herself.

about kathy

I am an educator, coach and mentor, now specialising as an Aliveness Coach trained in the Vita™ methodology, which lives under the Tantra umbrella.

I am passionate about supporting women to live fully, feel fully and play fully as they transition into midlife and beyond.

I envision a world where menopause is no longer seen as a midlife hassle but as an initiation into a new, radiant, deeply embodied self. A time of Moving towards  eldership rather than elderly.

For more than 30 years, I have been devoted to personal and spiritual growth. My path has included immersive retreats, extensive study, and lived practice — including a year living at a Buddhist retreat centre, where Mikal and I held the shared roles of retreat managers and property caretakers. I have completed a year of Steiner teacher training, studied with Tony Robbins’ Mastery University, and most resonantly, became a certified VITA™ Sex, Love and Relationship Coach.

With all this my deepest learning has come through living — through love, loss, relationship, motherhood, partnership, and my own midlife transition.

My calling is to walk alongside women as they navigate the physical, emotional, relational, and sexual changes of this life stage. I create spaces where women can reconnect with their bodies, reclaim their sensuality, and rediscover their deliciousness.

I guide women to walk through this chapter with confidence, authenticity, and ease — not by fixing themselves, but by coming home to who they truly are.

Outside of Coaching I love being in nature - whether through active pursuits or moments of stillness and appreciation. Horses have been a significant part of my life for both recreation and healing. The power of the horse is beyond words and something I am grateful for every day to have in my life. 

I am also immensely proud of our three children who are now walking their own journeys. I am forever grateful to have been given the gift of motherhood and hold it as the greatest accomplishment of my life. 

And I am immensely proud of the relationship that Mikal and I have today. A relationship that has often not been easy but always worth it. And I know there is still so much more.

Midlife is not an ending

It is a becoming.

aliveness coach

awakening body, mind & soul

As an Aliveness Coach, I support women to reconnect with their bodies, emotions, desires, and inner wisdom. Aliveness is not about doing more; it is about feeling more present, connected, and fully engaged with life.

how i work

I believe that within every woman is a vibrant, wise, and deeply alive self waiting to be fully expressed.

My coaching is a gentle yet powerful invitation to come home to yourself — to deepen your relationship with your body, your emotions, your desires, and your inner wisdom. Together, we create a space where all parts of you are welcome, allowing greater self-acceptance, self-trust, and self-love to emerge.

Drawing on somatic practices, mindfulness, curiosity, and compassionate inquiry, I support you to move beyond self-judgment and reconnect with what truly lights you up. This work isn't about fixing yourself. It's about awakening to the delicious woman you already are.

Whether through conversation, body awareness, reflection, or playful exploration, our work together is designed to awaken greater aliveness, authenticity, pleasure, and connection in your everyday life.
