I'm Donna originally from Yorkshire England, however life led me to Spain where I met my wonderful life partner Simon. My career began very early on in corporate and accounts, however, a personal health journey was to set me on a very different path.

After eventually  overcoming life debilitating and crippling IBS, I quickly realised the profound connection between the mind and body, and how powerful the mind can be in overcoming challenges. This led me to the study of hypnotherapy, where I became fascinated with the untapped potential of the brain. The more I practiced on myself and clients, the more I broke through my own limitations. My enthusiasm was evident—I was the student who arrived early, asked endless questions, and immersed myself fully. Though I may have tested the patience of my tutors, it paid off: I was recognised for my potential and invited to train as a tutor. After another year of mentorship, I found myself teaching life-changing skills across Yorkshire, and eventually I quit my 9-5 job to work independently, teaching and seeing clients on my own schedule. This gave me the freedom, flexibility, and financial independence I never knew was possible.

This transformation was to come with its personal challenges. As I evolved, I outgrew my marriage, realising that the beliefs and patterns I held from early on in life had attracted  21+ years of toxic, narcissistic relationships that only intensified the anxiety, depression, and poor health, validating my deeply ingrained feelings of worthlessness, self-doubt, and inadequacy. Something started to shift internally – things started to feel more hopeful…

Circumstances took a quick turn and before I knew it, I was packing up my life in the UK and driving to Spain, where I embarked on a brand-new chapter, suddenly finding myself teaching diploma-level hypnosis to international students! Eventually I progressed to teaching at another successful clinical hypnosis school, all while delving deeper into understanding the mind.

I became committed to uncovering why we get stuck in life, why we suffer, why we think we are broke and need fixing. I had so many unanswered questions… I was intent on solving all of the missing pieces of the jigsaw. Over time, I was shown everything I needed to know to complete that jigsaw, to answer all of the questions!

In 2019, I had the incredible opportunity to work with guests at one of Spain's top retreats, where I still continue to help clients achieve profound transformations today. This experience sparked collaborations with other health experts, leading to the creation of 1-2 day retreats focused on women's wellness and the challenges we face. It was here that ~Women & Wellness~ was born.

​

As my own journey evolved and my business became more focused, it felt natural to progress to helping female business owners shift from self-doubt to self-belief.

From this I launched my signature program ~Self-Doubt to Self-Belief~ designed to help women embrace their greatest business asset, their confidence & self belief. Today, I work with women 'one to one' remotely or through VIP intensive in-person days at my home in Spain. Next year we will be expanding to offer private accommodation next to a stunning natural park and ancient lagoon, creating an even more immersive experience.

My journey is about resilience, growth, and realising that it’s never too late to reshape our lives. That none of us are broken or need fixing as I used to believe. I strive to excel in all areas—body, being, balance, and business. The version of me that was once a victim to limiting beliefs and mind drama is gone.
I've not only resolved health issues like IBS, arthritis, anxiety, and depression, but I've also recognised my true value and worth. I've broken the old patterns that attracted toxic relationships, and today, I am blessed to have found my soulmate. I’m proud to celebrate over 7 years together with my partner, Simon.  I’ve let go of the old outdated need to control or change others. Instead, I focus on creating trust and healthy relationships by taking responsibility for my own emotions.

Living in Spain, separated from my daughters, grandson, and aging parents, brings its own challenges, but I prioritise checking in with my mind daily. This essential practice allows me to operate from my "higher self - future version' of me who knows what IS possible. Now, as I navigate the gift of Peri menopause, I find strength in the ability to make decisions that honor my body and mind. One example was to 'cut out sugar, flour, and reduce my wine intake'. I've learned to listen to my brain’s cravings and urges without resisting or fighting them, cultivating a deep sense of self-trust, care, and respect with myself.

If you're a female business owner ready to move from self-doubt to unshakable self-belief, I invite you to explore how you can achieve profound change. Whether you're seeking one-on-one support online or a deep-dive VIP experience, I’m here to guide you through the process of creating the life and business you truly desire.

Let's work together to uncover what's possible for you. Connect with me today to learn more about my program and how we can start YOUR transformational journey. Your best self is waiting—let’s go meet her!
