Mindful Impacts was born in 2011 in Sydney, Australia, driven by an unshakeable passion to revolutionise the corporate world through the power of mindfulness and wellness. What began as a personal quest to bring balance to high-pressure environments has evolved into a mission to transform workplaces across the globe.
My journey started after I completed my training as a meditation and yoga teacher back in 2011. I found myself in the fast-paced consultancy environment of a construction, engineering and environmental planning organisation—where long hours and strict deadlines were the norm, and stress was the accepted norm. Recognising the urgent need for a solution (as I was burnt out during my construction management years working as a Project Engineer), I approached my boss with a bold idea: to introduce meditation and yoga to my colleagues. Fortunately, he shared my vision (thanks Paul!), being both a surfer and a yoga practitioner himself, and thus, the seeds of Mindful Impacts were planted.
Over the past decade, Mindful Impacts has had the privilege of working with diverse organisations across several countries. Our mission is clear: to cultivate work environments that are not only harmonious and well-run but also inclusive and inspiring. We believe that true leadership starts from within, and that fostering employee well-being through mindfulness is the cornerstone of sustainable business growth.
At Mindful Impacts, we offer a comprehensive suite of tailored tools and strategies, including teaching, mentoring, and coaching. Our approach is designed to help employees manage stress, regulate emotions, and enhance mental health. By addressing these challenges head-on, we empower teams to thrive both personally and professionally—creating a ripple effect of positive change that extends far beyond the workplace.
Join us on this journey of transformation, where focused, mindful approaches lead to extraordinary results, and where the true potential of your team is unlocked through the practices of mindfulness and wellness.

As a seasoned Urban Planner, specialising in Landscape Rehabilitation, and social and environmental impacts in projects across Asia, Africa, and Europe, I’ve witnessed first-hand the immense pressures that professionals face in high-stakes environments. Meeting project deadlines, managing diverse teams, and resolving community conflicts often came with heightened anxiety and stress.
My journey into mindfulness began serendipitously in 1997 during travels through India, just before my corporate career took shape. By 1998, I was deeply immersed in meditation, seeking ways to balance the demands of my career with inner peace and resilience. Through years of practice and exploration, I discovered that certain practices resonated more deeply with my temperament. This curiosity led me to train under some of the most esteemed mindfulness teachers in both the East and West, including the Vipassana lineage taught by Jack Kornfield and Tara Brach.
Today, as a mindfulness consultant with over a decade and a half of international experience, I have had the privilege of working with organisations, business schools, and universities across Australia, the UK, France, and Spain. From 2016 to 2019, I served as the resident mindfulness facilitator at INSEAD (France) MBA Business School, where I introduced mindfulness practices to future global leaders. My experience spans a wide range of sectors, including corporate, educational, and non-profit organisations, where I have successfully integrated meditation and yoga into workplace wellness programmes.
My exposure to culturally diverse workplaces and teams in various countries has equipped me with a unique understanding of the challenges and opportunities in fostering wellbeing at work. I believe that most employers genuinely want to enhance their teams’ wellbeing but often need guidance on how to implement these initiatives in a way that is engaging, non-threatening, and sustainable.
At Mindful Impacts, I bring a blend of professionalism, deep mindfulness expertise, and a light-hearted approach to teaching that ensures sessions are not only impactful but also enjoyable and accessible. My aim is to help organisations create thriving work environments where mindfulness, leadership, and well-being are at the core of their success.
Whether you’re looking to reduce stress, improve leadership capabilities, or cultivate a more mindful and resilient workplace culture, I am here to guide your organisation on a transformative journey to create a lasting impact that resonates far beyond the workplace.
Having now worked within business schools and corporate environments, clearly there has been an evolution of younger professionals wanting to acquire skills to maximise their mental and physical wellbeing. However, certain cohorts within the workplace need further encouragement and gentle cajoling to be convinced. This is where my decade of experience will serve your organization well.
With the onset of COVID established within your communities, Mindful Impacts brings a lot of experience to craft a range of programs, workshops and wellness retreats for your workplace (face to face or online) to deliver tangible results and improve your bottom line.
