Having always been fascinated by what makes us truly flourish, my journey began early — searching for answers among the great wisdom traditions and studying psychology at university.

​

Learning to meditate at 19, I moved to London to train and teach as an ordained Buddhist. Nearly two decades of community, retreats and ethical business transformed me from the inside out.

​

Moving on from Buddhism to a family life in Devon and drawing on fresh influences, I founded Thrivecraft in 2003 — a life, business and spiritual coaching practice specialising in meditation, inner wisdom and manifestation.

​

Ten years later, Thrivecraft evolved into an academy, training and accrediting coaches and meditation teachers.

​

Throughout all of this, entrepreneurship has been a constant thread — founding, running and mentoring businesses and community projects.

​

For some years I was a columnist for positive living magazines and in 2017 my first book — Diving for Pearls: The Wise Woman’s Guide to Finding Love — was published.

​

Returning to my native Scotland in 2021 while still caring for my late husband and during a series of personal losses, my own remarkable reinvention began — finding a wonderful new love, founding Kay Starr TV and stepping fully into broadcasting and presenting.

​

With thirty years of guiding retreats, groups and workshops behind me, I am now relaunching my vocation completely — including my signature Magic retreats.

​

The time has never felt more right.
