Why I Wrote My Book: A Journey of Healing and Empowerment
After many years of supporting people on their healing journeys, I reached a point where several milestones came together like gentle signposts: earning a Registered Trademark for my W·I·L·D® approach, completing Gabor Maté’s Compassionate Inquiry training and refreshing my Meta Consciousness® qualifications. I began to hear a persistent inner nudge grow louder — “it’s time to write a book.”
The idea had been quietly sitting with me for years, but suddenly the timing felt right. I knew it was no longer just a whisper — it was an invitation.
Finding the title was a journey in itself. I wanted something that captured the heart of my work while feeling light, playful, and inviting. After much reflection, Take a Walk on the W·I·L·D® Side revealed itself. It felt perfect — a phrase that carries the essence of wonder, intuition, and self-discovery, and a warm invitation for readers to join me in exploring the healing dance of life.
I know what it’s like to feel worthless, unloved, and lost. For a long time, those feelings weighed heavily on me. But somewhere inside, I made a choice — not to let them define who I was. Step by step, by questioning old beliefs and slowly embracing who I truly am, I began a journey of healing and transformation.
One of the biggest shifts came when I started to listen differently to my body. Instead of seeing symptoms as problems to fight against, I began to see them as messages — gentle (and sometimes not-so-gentle!) clues pointing me back to balance. That realisation changed everything. I discovered my body wasn’t my enemy at all, but an extraordinary guide for living with more ease, joy, and wholeness.
In Take a Walk on the W·I·L·D® Side, I share my own story alongside the W·I·L·D® principles which have supported me — so that you too can explore new ways of connecting with yourself, unlocking your potential, and remembering the joy and purpose that are your natural birthright.
Why My Book's Message is Vital Now: Embracing Healing and Connection
Bringing this book to life has been both exhilarating and challenging. What began as a raw idea gradually took shape, thanks to the invaluable guidance of my editor, AnnMarie Reynolds at beginabook.com. Together, we transformed a whirlwind of thoughts and experiences into a manuscript which feels coherent, authentic, and impactful.
When the beta readers responded with such positive feedback it was the encouragement I needed to take the final steps. AnnMarie and I polished the finishing touches — including the cover design — before sending it off to IngramSpark, our chosen publishers.
This whole journey has been a true reminder of the power of perseverance, and of how sharing our stories can ripple out and touch lives in ways we might never expect.
The cover of this book is more than just artwork; it’s an open doorway into the journey inside. With its nature-inspired colours and imagery, it reflects the heart of W·I·L·D® — inviting you to reconnect, reflect, and rediscover your own inner wisdom.
I’m so excited to share this with you — and I’d love for you to walk alongside me as we step into this journey together.
