"It feels like the start of a whole new exciting career—new tools, new purpose, and a whole new way to support transformation"

In August 2025, I retired… and promptly discovered that I am not very good at doing nothing. After years in primary special education and running and designing IT courses for educators, I realised I wasn’t ready to close the book—just start a new chapter. I chanced upon the Mindvalley Hypnotherapy course and found myself signing up for it. It brought together my love of learning, creativity, and human potential. Graduating as a Mindvalley Hypnotherapist feels less like retirement and more like the start of a whole new exciting career—new tools, new purpose, and a whole new way to support transformation (including my own) and be part of a wonderful, supportive community .
