I help people make and manage deep and lasting change through deepening self-awareness with self-compassion.
Alongside my work as a coach, I write, speak and teach - through my podcast, public and private events and as an InsightTimer publisher.
My work is all underpinned by my deep understanding of the power of non-judgement and profound self-compassion in effecting positive, powerful change.
And it reflects the changes I've made in her own life.
In 2016, during a period of severe stress, grief and an almost total absence of effective self-care, I became critically ill. My recovery prompted a time of immense personal and professional change. As part of my process, taking learnings from my under-graduate studies in sociology and psychology as well as my career in senior corporate roles, I retrained as a coach to support others in their own personal and professional change journeys.
Through this time, I've published two books, launched a podcast and created a community.
My Darling Girl began as a series of love letters to support myself through the toughest times. It connects with the deep wisdom we all hold - becoming love letters for all the girls and women we have ever been. My second book The Heart of Change, is a self-coaching guide to accompany my readers on their own journeys; an invitation to explore what you think, feel and believe about change - and then take the action that most serves the whole of you.
The Henny Flynn podcast further reflects my interest in the exploration of personal change through the lenses of self-awareness and self-compassion.
And... early in my coaching career, I noticed a trend in my work.
80% of my female clients were somewhere in their menopause journey. I began to feel like the menopause whisperer and quickly realised more support was needed. So, I created The Compassionate Menopause community. A space dedicated to women seeking to re-write their own menopause story.
I call my work practical compassion.
A blend of psychology, neuroscience, spiritual connection and mindfulness that enables each person I work with to find their own answers; their own path.
