Gemma has been immersed in the Wellbeing Industry all her life. A former General and Critical Care Nurse for 3 decades, she also became a professional in the Fitness Industry for 10 years. With nursing experience across diverse fields, specialising in Intensive Care and Cardiothoracic Intensive Care, she worked concurrently as a Group Fitness Leader and Personal Trainer. Recently, she resumed work in the professional fitness arena, facilitating Stretch and Core Sessions at Healthy Horizons, and coaching individuals privately on their pathway to living with vitality. She also loved Interior Decorating as an avenue for artistic expression. By introducing light, colour, form and function into places of work, rest, and play, as well as refurbishing homes, and creating beautiful spaces for individuals and corporate clients, she realised she was facilitating the clearing and healing of these spaces.

Ongoing and consistent study in multiple healing, wellness, and natural health modalities over the past 30 years revealed an evolutionary commitment to arriving in her Dharma as a Healer, Yoga Teacher, Group Facilitator, Shaman, Life Coach, Intuitive Guide, and Consciousness Wayshower.  One of the major realisations in her personal healing journey has been Art and Artistic expression as a Gateway to identifying, being with, integrating and releasing trauma, unresolved conflict and undesired subconscious patterning. From this breakthrough, she developed the brand phrase that describes her Opus Magnus…Heal to Create ~ Create to Heal. This pathway of ‘healing to create ~ creating to heal’ inspired her journey into studying a Bachelor of Fine Art at the University of Tasmania, which will be completed at the end of 2026. An unfolding journey continues as she finds the elements, materials, themes and ways of communicating a message of … Relationality, Connectivity, Elemental Sentience and Aetheric Everywhen Awareness.

“Life experience through the undulations of marriage, parenting, loss of a child, divorce, new relationships, career changes, Academia, athletics, professional, artistic achievements, upheavals, joyful experiences and disappointments nourish me with the hard-won wisdom of the crone.

Through experience in the dysfunctional archetype of the ‘Rescuer’, I moved through regular episodes of extreme stress, energy depletion, burnout, overgiving, grief, tragedy, loss and sorrow,

Change was inevitable. I embraced the Way of the Peaceful Warrior. and let go of an unconscious addiction to stress. With equanimity becoming my ally, I learned to release and let go with absolute forgiveness,

And ridiculous amounts of self-forgiveness.

Living with conscious awareness in the present moment, allowing and intending for Heart de-armouring and welcoming in the interdimensional and past-life gifts and talents of the Shaman, I arrived into the space my pre-incarnational Soul had intended.. Beautiful gifts, allowing more joy, love, cultivation of a powerful ,peaceful heart and expansion into activation of the ‘clairs’ evolved.

With an ability to be in the creative flow of life rather than trying to swim upstream, against the natural ontological flow of my Soul Purpose I realised the sustainable energetic to carry me forward was daily simple practises of Breath, Awareness, Somatic Centreing and MIndful Meditative Presence..

I am Empowered as a Sovereign Free Being who establishes Sacred Boundaries and can bear the weight of the world, walking in it but not ‘of it’

This pathway infuses my life with compassion, curiosity, expansive acceptance and understanding of ‘the Other’ with sensitivity to the unique path we all walk as spirit incarnate in the sacred human vessel”.

My wellness journey recovering from anxiety/depression and an eating disorder in my youth, multiple sports-related injuries from Sailing and Triathlon, Leaky Gut Syndrome, as well as recent peri and post-menopausal changes, have all been via the modalities I offer. Recently, an accelerated healing from Shingles as an expression of past-life clearing has empowered my understanding and capacity to assist others with Lineage, Morphogenetic Field, and DNA miasmatic debris cleansing and clearing.

I acknowledge and honour a ‘Vibrancy of Matter’ and the philosophies embedded in First Nations’ ways of being, experiencing, and living with the knowing that everything is alive, sentient, and connected. I draw inspiration from a deep shamanic connection to Country, Nature, Mother Earth, and the Cosmos. I am guided and informed by Indigenous roots from two islands at opposite ends of the world … Ireland and lutruwita/trouwunna, Tasmania. I honour my Ancestors from the Melukerdee tribe of the Tahune Linah, Huon River region and my Druidic Ancestors from the Emerald Isle.
