Recurring anxiety is not fun

If there’s one question that I have asked my whole life, it is how we, as humans, make sense of our joy, in all the roles that we have.

I knew that cultural responses to emotions had a lot to do with it. Whether it was in the countries I called my home, or the school and work environments I was in - I found myself second-guessing myself as I strived for achievement.

I grew up moving between Bangladesh and England, never quite sure which role I was meant to play — with so many narratives of how the mind, spirit and body work together.

Achievement after achievement followed - chasing dreams and goals and taking on the roles that fitted.

And in it all, in the background, I quietly explored my inner world using books, courses and quiet study.

25 years in international education, while secretly following my own inner path

I taught Secondary Science, Biology and Psychology, and stepped into both middle and senior leadership roles in international schools. How well I performed and how well I served really depended on how closely I listened to the voice inside me. What I always loved the most was coaching students and adults deeply, so that they could find the questions (and pathways) they were looking for.

There were times when I decided to do what was required of me by an organisation and to ignore the feeling that I was letting go of my own unique way of serving. And each time, this did not end well!

My doctoral research explored how people make sense of their professional roles and identities during change — something I experienced first-hand. I saw how unclear expectations, shifting systems, and unspoken pressures could leave even the most capable people feeling lost, overworked, or undervalued.

So, at the same time, I was searching inward.

With a BSc in Biochemistry and an MSc in Psychology, I tried to make sense of the science of stress, consciousness and the mind — but it was my decades of exploring meditation, mindfulness, Reiki, the Silva Method and other grounding practices that gave me a deeper sense of self. Slowly, I learned that clarity doesn’t come from playing every role perfectly. It comes from pausing, listening, and choosing the ones that truly fit in the moment and having space to evolve.

Grounded Renewal is the heart of that journey.

It’s where I bring together psychology, science, and mindful practice to help people — especially in midlife — step out of exhausting cycles and return to their own grounded rhythm.

I developed a clear 4-phse pathway that helps anyone to learn to break out of negative cycles and into a joyful renewal.

Developing self-trust is a key part of this journey.

Learning to recognise success in being in the moment, and enjoying personal growth for what it is.

Achievement in life is wonderful, particularly when it aligns with an intrinsic self-trust and is oriented with our strengths and love of life. It is so easy to lose touch with this.

When we start to live from that deeper place, everything — work, family, leadership, life — begins to feel clearer, calmer, and more true.

The Grounded Renewal Programme is where we begin to press pause, step out of stress cycles, and rebuild life from a place of alignment.

You’ll find a mix of science, mindfulness, and practical tools — all designed to help you slow down, listen deeply, and create a rhythm that actually sustains you.

This is not about hustling harder or fixing yourself. It’s about returning to the self that’s been here all along — wiser, steadier, and ready to lead the next chapter of your life.

If any part of my story feels familiar — the juggling of roles, the quiet question of “who am I really in all of this?”, or the longing to feel calm and clear again — then you’re in the right place.
