Until the age of 41, my life was shaped by pain and struggle. Growing up with physical and emotional abuse left me feeling broken and unworthy. I lived under the weight of depression, survived a mental breakdown, and faced moments where I questioned whether life was worth continuing.
For years, I searched for relief. Drugs and alcohol became temporary escapes from the inner turmoil. I explored countless paths—therapy, CBT, hypnotherapy, meditation—in hopes of healing. Each offered moments of light, but the progress was fleeting. Behind a successful 28-year career in estate agency, I wore a mask that hid the truth of what I was living with every day.
Everything changed in 2017 when I came across the Three Principles, a simple but profound understanding of mental health and human experience. In that moment, I saw something I’d never seen before: that I was never truly broken. Beneath all the struggle was a core of innate wellbeing—something universal, something whole. That insight was the beginning of a transformation I could never have imagined.
Since then, I’ve devoted my life to sharing this understanding with others. I founded A Slice of Happiness Innate Health CIC, a non-profit based in Hertfordshire, UK, offering free group-based support to individuals facing housing insecurity and other life challenges. Over 900 people have taken part in our programmes, which are endorsed by the NHS and Public Health, and supported by Human Ethics-approved research partnerships with Coventry University and Innate Health Research.
I’ve also worked privately with many individuals navigating their own journeys through anxiety, trauma, addiction, and emotional overwhelm. What I’ve seen—time and time again—is that no one is beyond hope. Every person has access to resilience, clarity, and peace, even in the darkest moments.
‘A Slice of Happiness has served to improve people’s lives enormously – while also reducing demand on statutory services. The service is well established in Hertfordshire with excellent outcomes for some of the most vulnerable but overlooked members of society’
