I have been a qualified Optometrist for 20 years and currently work part-time at Vision Express. My journey has not always been straightforward — I’ve experienced my own mental health challenges with depression and severe anxiety, which deeply affected both my personal and professional life. Through therapy, support, and self-discovery, I transformed my mindset and rebuilt my life. That transformation inspired me to give hope to others facing similar challenges, leading me to create my wellbeing company, Inspiring Success.

​

I am a qualified Rapid Transformation Therapy Practitioner, Life Coach, NLP Practitioner, Mindfulness and Meditation Practitioner, and Author of two books — Perfectly Imperfect Mum and The Power of Being Perfectly Imperfect. My mission is to empower others to recognise their own strength, embrace imperfection, and create meaningful, lasting change in their lives.

​

Alongside my coaching and therapy work, I am the co-founder of EVYA, a wellbeing app designed for healthcare professionals. EVYA allows users to digitally journal and track their habits to see the impact on stress and wellbeing, while connecting with others through community forums.

​

My work and story have been featured in Hello Magazine, Metro, Daily Mail, The Mirror, Om Yoga, BBC Radio, BBC News, and This Morning, and I have written numerous articles for Optician and Optometry Today.

I’m proud to have been recognised within the optical industry, having won Optometrist of the Year 2023 and Supplier of the Year 2025 at Eye Care Glasgow, as well as being a Finalist for Optometrist of the Year 2023 and Supplier of the Year 2024 at the Optician Awards.

​

I work with individuals on a one-to-one basis, as well as in group and organisational settings, both online and in person. I also deliver CPD-accredited wellbeing sessions and bespoke training programmes. Together with My partner Piyus Tanna we also run Optometry Wellbeing Days, and other CPD learning days including LOCUM Day, and Dry Eye Day.

​

At my core, I’m passionate about helping others grow in confidence, resilience, and self-compassion — creating spaces where people feel seen, supported, and inspired to thrive.

​

Outside of work, I’m a proud mum of two daughters. I love travelling, walking, reading, and spending quality time with my family — my greatest source of joy and balance.
