If you’d told me two years ago that I’d trade a seemingly perfect life in Canada - complete with a long-term relationship, two thriving businesses, and an emotional attachment to Tim Hortons iced capps- for a whole new life on a tiny island at the bottom of the world, I probably would’ve smiled politely and asked if you were feeling alright. And yet, here we are. Because while my life looked dreamy from the outside, deep down I knew I wasn’t where I was meant to be. So, I did the boldest - and possibly most dramatic - thing I’ve ever done: I left. I swapped snow boots for sandy toes, “sorry” for “no worries,” and moved back to Australia- this time to Tasmania, where my family had settled. It wasn’t a grand, movie-montage kind of moment. It was quiet, terrifying, and lonely…but it was right. That’s where the real work began: rebuilding a life that didn’t just look happy, but felt happy. Not exactly a traditional career move (especially for someone who overthinks…well, everything), but it turned out to be the most important one I’ve ever made. Tasmania - pine trees, ocean air, and a community so close-knit even the seagulls know your business - you became the backdrop to my rebirth, and my home. It’s where I created Shoreline Australia, a self-development company built around helping women remember who they are, what they want, and how powerful it is to start again. To be clear: this wasn’t some perfectly mapped out journey. It was emotional, confronting, and full of 'what on earth am I doing?' moments! I’m the kind of gal who loves big, dreams bigger, and believes in the magic of reinvention. I have a deep passion for empowering others through raw, honest connection, and living with the joyful conviction that we are all capable of far more than we think. Which brings me to the mission I’m on today - to take everything I’ve learned and lived through and turn it into impact. To remind women (and men, we love them too!), that courage changes everything. That starting over isn’t failure - it’s freedom. And that authenticity, at its core, resides in living the truth of you. Because if I’ve learned anything on this wild, wonderful ride, it’s this: sometimes the most authentic thing you can do is let go of what’s good... so you can finally create something great.
