I’ve always been obsessed with exploration and edges — the places where what I know ends, and something new begins.
Sometimes that edge is 221 meters underwater.
Sometimes, it’s simply doing something you’ve never done before.

In 2004, I became the deepest woman in the world, diving to 221 meters. It took ten years to get there, eleven minutes to reach my depth, one minute to soak it all in… and six hours to get back to the surface.

What I learned was this:

You don’t need to be fearless to do the impossible. You just need to start — and keep going.

I also learned that who you are isn’t set in stone. I wasn’t born with what it took to be an explorer. I had to learn it — one breath, one decision, one edge at a time.

Exploration didn’t stop there. I’ve spent the past 20 years navigating uncertainty — as a solo sailor, as an ontological coach, and as a senior transformation leader inside complex systems and organisations.

And what I’ve found is: the edge isn’t out there.
It’s in here.

Whether I’m sailing from island to island or helping a team shift their mindset, I’ve learned that lasting change doesn’t come from big leaps — it comes from small, powerful shifts in how we think, feel, and act when the map runs out.

That’s why I created the Explorer’s Compass — a tool to help you find direction, even when the path ahead is unclear.

Today, I help high-performing individuals and teams:

• Reignite their inner spark

• Find momentum through stuckness

• Build the courage to lead from the edge

• Create lasting change with clarity and intention

If you’re here, chances are you’re standing at an edge of your own.
Welcome. Let’s explore what’s next.
