Featherlight Living Is The Way Back To Freedom
Hi, I'm Steph
If you would like to have more space and time so you can live a life of creativity, meaning, and purpose, welcome home.
I specialise in feminine forward, earth-based, spirit-led leadership working with women who believe in the power of the feminine cycles and want to work and live with a rhythm that has balance, harmony, and space for creative self-expression.
Coach And Intuitive Entrepreneur
Born with the moon in Leo and the sun in Cancer, I hail from a long line of stoical Scottish women. It is my passion to inspire deeper conversations with the earth, ourselves, and each other. I listen deeply and show women how to draw on their values, connecting them to their ideas and creativity so that they can step away from the frenzy of modern life, return home themselves, and create a life of balance and harmony that has rhythm and flow.
I live on a wide beam canal boat in Cambridgeshire UK and have made bold choices to break free from the social norms of striving and productivity to turn my one adventure with the universe into a lifestyle I love using my intuition, imagination and creativity.
Where Creativity And Intuition Meet
I am a gardener of growth and transformation through the feminine cycles. I have followed my intuition to create businesses in the UK and Bali that have nourished others whilst bringing my life balance, harmony and freedom.
I created Featherlight Living through a desire to show women the emotional freedom in trusting their intuition and discovering their compassionate voice so they can create a lifestyle that gives them meaning and joy.
My work is about reconnecting women to their vulnerability and strengths. Through coaching, workshops, and retreats I create a space for women to come together in an environment of healing, nourishment, and growth.
Work With me
If you feel ready to live in alignment with the feminine cycles and bring more space, time, and creativity into your life, then there are a number of ways we can work together.
Through bespoke one to one work aboard my wide beam canal boat, group classes and workshops, we will work together to tap into your creative nature and bring balance, freedom and a cyclical rhythm to your life.
I host regular immersive, seasonal residential retreats, together with bespoke restful river retreat days for you to dive into a deeper space of inquiry and growth, held in Suffolk, Norfolk, and Cambridgeshire, UK.

Stephanie has taught me how to live my life on MY terms, to look inward, see myself for the first time, and embrace myself with all my faults. She’s taught me how to build a fishing rod, and how to fish Stephanie is warm, compassionate, intelligent, highly trained in several disciplines, funny, caring and most of all makes you feel good about yourself and trust her, which is a gift in itself.

My Philosophy
My approach to life is a dance with cyclical living, engaging with the flow of time and consciousness to deepen my intimacy with the self, the world, and the Divine. In befriending myself, I revel in the authority and wisdom that comes from truly understanding one’s place in the vastness of life. This philosophy leads me towards a path of growth and empowerment, where inner peace is not just a destination but a continuous, evolving journey.
The waters I navigate are guided by three fundamental values that steer me towards inner growth and fulfillment: spirituality, compassion, and creativity.These principles are my compass, leading me through life’s ebbs and flows with grace and purpose.
Spirituality
Spirituality is at the heart of my existence, the foundation on which I build my life. It is through this spiritual connection that I find solace and meaning in all aspects of life.
Whether it’s through meditation, prayer, or simply taking a mindful walk in nature, spirituality allows me to tap into a deeper sense of self and connect with something greater than myself.
Spirituality, for me, transcends religious boundaries. It is about forging a connection with something greater than ourselves—whether it’s the tranquility of nature, the universe, or the depths of our own souls.
The teachings of inspirational figures such as Thich Nhat Hanh and John O’Donohue have deepened this connection, providing insights into mindfulness and the profound beauty of interconnectedness. Cyclical living is at the heart of spirituality, where you truly come home to yourself.
COMPASSION
Compassion is the heartbeat of my philosophy, guiding me to value empathy, kindness, and understanding. It teaches me to recognise the humanity in others and embrace their individual struggles.
By practicing cyclical consciousness, I engage in a deep intimacy with myself and the world around me. This consciousness invites a pace of life that honours spaciousness and responsiveness. It’s a powerful antidote to the relentless mode of existence that pervades our modern world.
With self-compassion, I work to restore this consciousness, not only for myself but for others and the world at large. This approach reignites a connection to life that is both empowering and liberating.
This value guides me to approach every interaction with kindness, understanding, and an open heart. It allows me to connect with people on a deeper level and build genuine relationships based on mutual respect and support.
Central to my creative journey is the concept of limitless self-expression and personal development.
Creativity is not a static attribute but a dynamic force, continuously evolving, composting, and renewing itself. This cyclical nature of creativity mirrors the patterns found in nature, where life unfolds in seasons and cycles.
Each cycle provides a fresh opportunity for rebirth and transformation, allowing for the continuous regeneration of ideas and perspectives.
I belive that when creativity intertwines with cyclical living, a profound synergy emerges. This alignment allows us to tap into the deeper layers of our being, fostering a more authentic form of expression.
By acknowledging and flowing with the natural cycles, we cultivate a fertile ground for creative ideas to germinate and flourish.
My Mission
Through self-compassion and an understanding of cyclical consciousness, I aim to restore balance for myself and those around me. This approach reignites a responsiveness to life and creates spaciousness in a world that often operates in overdrive. It serves as powerful medicine, empowering us to thrive amidst modern life’s demands, fostering a reconnection with our creativity and the natural world.
Ultimately, my philosophy encourages a gentle yet profound awakening—a return to harmony with ourselves and the universe, inviting us all to participate in a collective dance of existence, creativity, and peace.
