About

I see you.

Hi I'm Harriet, your Somatic Coach

The tightness in your chest before you speak.
Rewriting the message three times so it lands perfectly.
Saying yes when your body says no.
Over-doing so no one questions your value.

From the outside, it looks strong.

But inside, there’s a constant pressure:

 

To perform and prove

To appease and not disappoint anyone

To hold it all together, on your own

You’ve built success. But you haven’t built safety.

 

And without safety, you’ll keep performing,

even when you don’t need to anymore.

I'm here to help you return to yourself.

Hustle Culture is Overrated.

I support high-achievers move beyond people-pleasing, proving, and burnout-driven success. 

Together, we gently unravel the patterns of over-giving and over-doing, to uncover the strategies that once kept you safe, but now keep you small. Through a somatic approach, we rebuild internal safety at the level of your nervous system, so you can lead, share, and live from alignment instead of pressure.

 

Feel safe being seen.

In your work, in your relationships,

In your truth - without self-betrayal.

My unfolding story

Looking back, I can see where it began.

The performing. The pleasing. The chasing.

Somewhere along the way, those protective strategies followed me into adulthood.

I stayed in jobs where I didn’t feel valued.
I stayed in relationships where I didn’t feel seen.
I stayed in environments that rewarded high-functioning hustle -
 and called it ambition.

I abandoned myself, because I didn’t feel worthy of more.

 

I smiled when I wanted to fall apart.
I became hyper-independent and told myself I was strong.
I over-gave until resentment crept in.
I searched for answers everywhere but within.

 

I even moved across the world for peace but I burnt out!

I soon learnt, the work isn’t geographical. It’s internal.

We have been taught that doing more makes us worthy.
That being “better” makes us lovable.
That simply being as we are, is not enough.

And that conditioning runs deep.

 

But when we peel back those layers, something powerful happens.


You reconnect with your own authority.
You lead from alignment instead of pressure.
You take up space and speak your truth without abandoning yourself.

You feel safe being seen, because you finally see yourself.

I wasn’t sure what to expect as I had never experienced anything like this before, but Harriet made me feel so at ease and safe. She was very clear with what we were doing and I completely embraced the experience. It was eye opening and I came out of it with a big realisation, which has helped me to better understand myself. I couldn’t recommended Harriet enough, she has a beautiful calm energy about her which really helped to make me feel more grounded.
