Perhaps we share a love for:

Finding treasure in ops shops, fetes, and markets, and having swap parties

Binge-watching a good tv series.

Devouring empowering, soulful, life-affirming, spiritually awakening books, podcasts, webinars, blogs, and programs. 

Being in nature - I LOVE camping, sailing, bushwalking, swimming and being isolated and in fresh air. If there is red dirt, sand, sea, freshwater, and warm air on my skin, I’m in heaven.

Getting oily - and not the haven’t-washed-your-hair kinda way, but the using Essential oils for everything kinda way!

Healthy, tasty, freshly prepared food - Mangos and white nectarines, and Asian flavours have a special place in my heart. 

Being surrounded by gorgeous women that lift each other up, have authentic, real conversations and are open and curious.

“I have benefited immensely from Penny's wisdom and knowledge over the years through many of her offerings. Most recently, I had two NLP sessions with her, and the experience was truly transformative. Before working with Penny, I often struggled with anger, resentment, and self-sabotage. These emotions were affecting my personal growth, relationships, and career. I felt stuck and frustrated.

From the moment the sessions began, Penny created a space where I felt completely at ease, able to open up and share parts of myself I had long kept hidden. The transformation process we went through was both simple and profound, and I experienced immediate shifts. Since our sessions, I’ve felt a greater sense of calm and clarity, particularly in situations where I would have previously reacted with anger or frustration. I’ve learned to respond more thoughtfully and see things from new perspectives instead of being held back by past resentment.

The changes have been noticeable in multiple areas of my life. In my career, where I had been feeling uncertain and held back by my own self-sabotaging behaviours, I now approach challenges with more confidence and patience, trusting that things will work out as they are meant to. I’m no longer blocking my own progress; instead, I can see new opportunities and am more open to taking them. In my relationships, I feel more connected, as I’m able to communicate from a place of peace rather than resentment or frustration. Most notably, I’ve experienced a new sense of inner peace and empowerment that has helped me navigate everyday life with a lighter heart and a more positive outlook.

Emotionally, the sessions helped me release long-held anger and resentment, replacing them with a sense of empowerment and calm. I no longer feel trapped by my negative patterns, and I’ve let go of limiting beliefs that had been holding me back for years. The shift has been incredibly freeing, allowing me to move forward with a sense of ease and confidence.

I was initially drawn to try NLP because I knew I had emotional blocks that were preventing me from achieving the success and happiness I desired. I was ready to break free from the cycles of anger and self-sabotage that were keeping me stuck. What surprised me was how quickly and gently Penny guided me through the process, making me feel supported every step of the way.

Penny is a breath of fresh air, offering women like myself expansive opportunities to step into our power with love and fun. I’m deeply grateful for the work we did together and how it has enriched my life”
