Becoming The Change
Are you someone who is working to create a positive impact in the world? Perhaps you are feeling overwhelmed, disillusioned and worried about the future. The chances are that you have been putting your energy into fixing outer world problems and have neglected to look within - at the relationship you have with yourself, your change work and the world.
Becoming the change is a movement for people who want to create meaningful and systemic change in a way that feels energising, fulfilling and easeful.

Does this sound familiar?
You are a changemaker—working in sustainability, social impact, or another job dedicated to creating a better world. You're committed and motivated to making a positive impact, yet:
You feel overwhelmed by the scale of the worlds problems, anxious about the future and like you are carrying the weight of the world on your shoulders.
Your work feels draining and you rarely feel energised, fulfilled or excited by what you do.
You feel like you aren't doing enough to make change, or you might feel like the lack of progress is because you aren't good enough at what you do.
You feel disillusioned and are questioning whether your work is really contributing to the future you want to be part of.
You aren't sure it's sustainable for you to keep working in this way.
What if it didn't have to be this way?
"There is a revolution that needs to happen, and it starts from inside each one of us"
Thich Nhat Hanh
What if there was another way to create change?
What if you could wake up each day feeling clear, grounded, and energised about your change work.
Imagine feeling excited and fulfilled by your work and knowing it is contributing to the future you want to see, where you are using your unique skills in the best way to contribute to real meaningful change.
Imagine being able to show up as your true self and feel confident and courageous in your work to make change.
Imagine knowing that you are capable of handling uncertainty, overwhelm and climate emotions and are able to find more ease and peace in these times.
Imagine treating yourself with the kindness and compassion you offer others and knowing that you are enough just as you are.
Imagine knowing that you are making a meaningful impact, not by burning yourself out or working hard, but by aligning with the change you want to see and leading in an authentic and easeful way.
This is what Becoming the Change is about.
It's about creating change ANOTHER WAY.
Where changemakers no longer feel drained or weighed down by their work but instead feel deeply fulfilled and joyful in what they do.
A movement that empowers people to show up with clarity, calm and courage, to have a better relationship with themselves, others and the times we're in, and to create truly meaningful, systemic change.
Together, we can redefine what it means to make a positive impact, creating the solid foundations within each of us to create the world we want to see. We can:
Break free from self-doubt and perfectionism—and step into courageous, values-aligned action.
Stop operating from burnout and scarcity—and start leading from a more energised and present state.
Overcome overwhelm, anxiety and fear for the future - by developing emotional intelligence and resilience that will help you navigate these times.
Build a stronger relationship with yourself—so you can feel better, more confident and more connected with others, the planet and the change you are creating.
Create systemic change from the inside out—by deeply looking into the change you want to be part of and what your unique contribution is, so you can embody the future you want to see now.
Becoming the Change is about shifting how we exist in the world - it's evolving our 'being' purpose so that we lead change from a grounded and authentic place. It's about creating a space where we can show up just as we are, where we make it cool to be imperfect, we make it ok to feel lost, we welcome all parts of us - from the playful to the grieving, the lonely to the wise. We lovingly explore the depths of ourselves at our own pace and we bring kindness, acceptance and understanding to ourselves and one another.
This is a movement for people who want to find a way to create impact in a way that feels energising, fulfilling, and easeful and are ready to look within themselves, so that we can collectively create a more conscious and regenerative future where all beings thrive.

What is Becoming the Change about?
In this video from the first Welcome Gathering, I share the personal journey that led me to create Becoming the Change - from 10 years working in international development and sustainability, to hitting a low point where I realised I was pouring all my energy into fixing the outer world while neglecting to look at what was holding me back within - the inner critic, the overwhelm and the misalignment
Through coaching, mindfulness, systems thinking, and self-inquiry, I began to understand how my inner world was shaping my outer world experience - and as I started to share, I found many other changemakers were having similar experiences.
What emerged was a desire to create a space for people like us: people who care deeply about making the world a better place and want to contribute in a way that feels more energising, fulfilling, and sustainable.
In the video, I introduce the three core themes of Becoming the Change:
Our relationship to the world – how we hold the weight of what’s happening and find more ease and resilience in the face of uncertainty.
Our relationship to ourselves – how self-judgement and perfectionism hold us back, and how self-acceptance unlocks our confidence, impact, and wellbeing.
Our unique path to contribution – how to reconnect with what lights us up, so we can find ways of working and living that truly align with who we are and what kind of future we want to create.
Becoming the Change is about coming home to ourselves — not striving to be more but remembering who we already are. It’s about shifting how we see and relate to ourselves and the world, so we can show up with greater presence, purpose, and ease. Because when we let go of who we think we should be and step into who we truly are, we become far more capable of creating meaningful, lasting change and this is a place we can do that together.
"Yesterday I was clever, so I wanted to change the world.
Today I am wise, so I am changing myself."
Rumi
Listen to the 'On Becoming The Change' podcast
Through solo reflections and deep conversations with amazing guests, The On Becoming the Change podcast explores the relationship between inner transformation and systemic change.
We explore topics like - how to be well in a climate crisis, the power of systems and regenerative thinking, the drama triangle of sustainability, the importance of mindfulness and consciousness, and the role of self-awareness and coaching in creating a regenerative future.
Ultimately we uncover how the way we think, feel, and show up in the world directly shapes our experience and our impact and how we can be happy and fulfilled AND make a deeply systemic and meaningful impact.
