Hi, I’m Perm.
I have always been fascinated by the mystery, magic and meaning of life and I’ve always been interested in people – what drives us, what lights us up and that which connects us. My work now reflects this, but that wasn’t always the case…
Corporate life
My career started in IT when I joined NatWest as a graduate. I worked for NW & RBS for 16 years in various roles from software testing to intranet site design, web development to managing an online application forms platform. While working in IT, I also volunteered in local schools as part of an education and business partnership and my first taste of coaching was with teenagers who needed extra help to reach their potential in school. It was a great experience to work with young people and do something meaningful.
Spiritual journey
That longing for something meaningful was a familiar one for me and tied in with my passion for personal development. In my spare time I would read self-help books, attend meditation workshops and spiritual retreats. My journey took me from meditation to Reiki and Seichem, cosmic healing, shamanic drumming, EFT, channeling and non-duality teachings. I learned to space clear my home, balance my chakras and awaken my light body! I went to see many amazing teachers: Eckhart Tolle, John de Ruiter, Neale Donald Walsh and Bentinho Massaro to name but a few!
This was a huge part of me that wasn’t quite integrated with my corporate life and the yearning to work in line with my values and make a difference led me to action! I left the corporate world in 2012 to train as a coach. Co-active coaching was a great fit – working with a model that focuses on the whole person (body, mind and spirit), using intuition, being present to what arises in the moment and evoking transformation!
What came next?
I started Time Out Time Within because everyone around me seemed to be so stressed with their busy lives. I wanted to give people the space and tools to de-stress, to find the balance between doing and being and connect with their inner selves.
Passionate about all things spiritual, I’m also into vegetarian food, holistic health, design, dancing, books, movies and deep conversations!
I live in Kent with my beloved husband (a brilliant homeopath) and my two wonderful kids (who keep me on my toes)!
That's me - what about you?
If you are looking for something more meaningful too, why not try group meditation, one-to-one coaching or a workplace session?
