About the Coach
My name is Lucy, I am originally from the UK but now live in Australia.
Through my own journey of cultivating self-awareness and learning self-regulation, I have picked up tools to help navigate this wonderful human experience in a way that promotes peace and happiness. I am still learning everyday, and still experience all of the emotions that we all do. I love being able to share that important knowledge with children and young people to help promote emotional intelligence and resilience.
