I help thinkers, feelers, and doers find relief from the daily grind through easy-going nervous system regulation, so life feels more joyful, grounded, and alive.
 

My work sits at the intersection of nervous system health, mindfulness, movement, and joyful living, without the pressure, perfectionism, or spiritual bypassing.

Hi, I’m Chloe.

​

And I believe life’s far too short for constant stress, endless optimisation, and pretending we have it all together.

​

In my early twenties, I was commuting two hours a day for a job I hated, quietly wondering if this was genuinely what adulthood was supposed to feel like.

 

I burned out, got made redundant (twice), and even tried to set up a consultancy to help workplaces be happier — which I promptly failed at, mostly because I had no idea what I was doing.

​

Eventually, I found my way to teaching yoga.

​

Within a few months, classes were full. There were waitlists, awards, and lovely feedback — but not because I was teaching impressive poses. People came because they felt relief.

​

Without fully realising it at the time, I was already circling the question that now drives everything I do:

​

How do we actually live more joyful lives without burning ourselves out first?

​

It wasn’t all smooth sailing from there. I’ve known burnout, panic attacks, disordered eating, sleepless nights, difficult relationships — the full greatest‑hits album of coping, collapsing, and starting again.

Somewhere in the rubble I landed on the principle that now underpins all my work:

​

Relief comes first. Joy comes next. And life doesn’t have to feel like survival.

​

When your nervous system isn’t stuck in fight‑or‑flight, joy stops being something you chase and starts becoming something you notice.

​

My mornings now feel like actual beginnings, not escape routes.
My body feels like home, not a faulty alarm system.
My work energises me instead of draining me dry.

​

This is creativity without pressure. Space to think clearly. Time to notice the tiny, lovely bits of life without your nervous system screaming over the top of you.

​

This isn’t magic or woo‑woo. It’s what happens when you learn how to regulate your nervous system using simple, down‑to‑earth practices — including movement, breath, mindfulness, and perspective‑shifting tools — so your body can stand down from constant high alert.

My definition of success is being healthy, happy, slow, and relaxed more often than stressed, anxious, and overwhelmed.

My approach is grounded in over 20 years of yoga, philosophy, and mindfulness practice, alongside psychological and neurological frameworks, all translated into language that actually makes sense in real life.

​

I don’t have all your answers — but you do. My role is to help you hear them.

My philosophy:

Joy isn’t sugary.
Joy is punk. Joy is ancient.

Joy is grounded in the reality that we die, so we’d better live beautifully while we can.

For me, joy isn’t about bypassing difficulty or pretending everything’s fine.


It’s about meeting life fully awake, with a regulated nervous system, enough energy to care, and the courage to choose what actually matters.

I help people who...

  • Feel capable on the outside but quietly exhausted underneath
     

  • Want practical, non‑performative ways to feel better in their body and life
     

  • Are tired of hustle‑wellness and spiritual bypassing
     

  • Want to build a life their teenage self would be genuinely proud of

"Chloe has helped me in ways no one else has. She’s given me clarity, understanding, permission, and the tools I need to support the wellbeing I didn’t know I was missing. Absolutely love working with Chloe, couldn’t recommend her enough."

When I'm not making magic happen...

You might find me surfing, paddleboarding, or getting outside.

​

I'm a fan of gothic literature (you, too? Read this), carrot cake, and think there's way, way more to life than cutting carbs. 

​

You can find my writing on Substack, where I share weekly reflections, perspective shifts, and practical tools for living more joyfully.
