HELLO, BEAUTY!
Thank you for being here, I suspect you and I are about to kindle a beautiful connection.
I’m Carly – a Mentor and Guide for Purpose-Drive Women – I help leaders, visionaries, and creatives trust their power, share their gifts, and create meaningful impact in their work and lives.
I know what it feels like to be standing at the edge of something greater, sensing a deeper calling, yet feeling held back by unseen forces: self-doubt, fear, or the weight of external expectations. I also know the courage it takes to step forward, to claim your power, and to create a life and business that truly align with your soul.
For years, I followed a conventional path. I built a career in international development, working with organisations like the United Nations and leading programs across Australia, the Pacific, and Southeast Asia. I mentored communities and professionals, helping them develop skills and confidence. On paper, my work was fulfilling. But something was missing.
In 2014, I started sharing my spiritual journey through my blog, Pockets of Peace. Readers began reaching out, asking for guidance. They weren’t looking for generic advice. They wanted real conversations about purpose, alignment, and self-trust. I started working with women who felt stuck, women who knew they had more to give but didn’t know how to bring their visions to life.
At first, this was a side project. Then, in 2016, I took the leap. I left my career to build a practice focused on helping other women step into their highest expression, share their gifts with the world, and create impact without sacrificing their joy or energy. I had spent years shape-shifting to meet external expectations, looking outside myself for validation, and feeling like I was always chasing an ever-moving target, and when I began to trust myself and back my soul-led urgings, everything changed.
Since then, this has been my full-time business: I’ve worked with hundreds of clients, helping them develop deep self-trust, clear direction, and the confidence to move forward.
My approach combines structured mentoring with intuitive guidance and powerful energy medicine work. I draw on my background in leadership development, my training in energy work, and my own embodied and lived experience. I believe transformation happens when we stop looking for external validation and start trusting ourselves.
This work is more than just strategy, coaching or intuitive guidance – it’s alchemy.
My approach isn’t about forcing a blueprint onto your life; it’s about co-creating a path that feels expansive, sustainable, and uniquely yours.
Through my programs, activations, and mentoring, I support women in:
- Overcoming self-doubt, burnout, and fear of visibility
- Anchoring into their own power, clarity, and confidence
- Aligning their life and work with their soul’s highest vision
- Finally feeling the deep pleasure and embodiment their bodies were designed to feel
You are SO much more powerful than you think, and I want you to know the truth of your divinity deep in your bones.
This is about transformation at the deepest level, not just achieving more but becoming more of who you already are.
Are you ready to step into your next evolution?
If your heart is saying yes, I invite you to explore ways we can work together. Let’s activate even more of the brilliance that’s already within you!
Head this way to book in an Inquiry Call with me, to see if we’re a good fit!
When I’m not doing this, you’ll find me immersed in nature, swimming in the ocean, hiking in the forest, dancing like everyone’s watching, meditating, yoga-ing or curled up on the couch with a good book!(And maybe watching Netflix, just quietly.)
STATEMENT ON ETHICS AND INCLUSION
- I acknowledge the Traditional Custodians of the sunny land upon which I live, work and play in Meanjin (Brisbane), Australia: the Turrbal and Jagera People, and pay my respect to their ancestors and elders.
- When I refer to the term ‘Women’ or ‘Womxn’, I do so with the intention of including anyone who identifies as such, including transgendered women.
- I guide women only at this stage, as I do not feel I have the lived experience to teach men and non-binary humans effectively in the same way. There are humans in the world doing similar transformational work. Let me know if you’d like any recommendations!
- I intend to create a safe space for women of every creed and colour in my writing, in my programs, and during my in-person events. Racism, sexism and any other form of discriminatory behaviour will not be tolerated.
- I have worked in international humanitarian development for over a decade, on projects in Eastern Africa, South East Asia and the Pacific, ranging from financial inclusion, women’s empowerment and climate change mitigation, through to local economic development and good governance. While this is no longer my career focus, I still donate my time to causes and events that matter to me as I see fit.
- A portion of my business earnings are donated to charities and organisations which support the following: women’s empowerment and safety, refugee and asylum-seeker support, disaster relief and recovery, the natural environment/climate change, and micro-business in developing countries.
