What Is Nothing Pretty?
Nothing Pretty is a women-only online community that supports slow, honest, and embodied change. It is built for women who have spent a long time in survival mode: holding things together, pushing through, and losing touch with their bodies and want to rebuild their relationship with themselves in a way that is sustainable and real.
Rather than focusing on fixing or forcing change, this work centres on awareness, safety, and learning how to stay present in your body and your life.
-
Change doesn’t begin with pushing harder. Nothing Pretty starts by creating emotional and nervous system safety, allowing patterns to soften and choice to widen over time.
-
This work meets you where you are. There is no one-size-fits-all pathway and no expectation to move faster than your current capacity allows.
-
Awareness is developed through the body as much as the mind. Movement, reflection, and gentle practices are used to reconnect you with your internal signals and lived experience.
-
Nothing Pretty focuses on small, unglamorous shifts repeated consistently. These are the changes that rebuild trust and last beyond motivation.
-
You are not expected to do this alone. The community offers structure, reflection, and support without pressure to perform or share more than feels right.
-
Habits, identity, nervous system state, and environment are interconnected. Nothing Pretty works with these layers together, rather than treating them as separate problems.
The Baseline
*
The Baseline *
The Baseline is a short, practical guide designed for women who feel stuck, exhausted, or unsure where to begin.
It focuses on five non-negotiables that support energy, presence, and self-trust, creating a foundation for sustainable change. This isn’t about pushing harder or fixing yourself, it’s about stabilising first so better choices become possible.
The steps are small and achievable on purpose, so you can begin right now, exactly where you are.
A gentle place to start, when starting feels hard.

Origins of this work
This work has been shaped through a combination of study, practice, and lived experience.
An early focus on hypnotherapy introduced a client-centred approach that prioritises safety, responsiveness, and working with what is already present, rather than imposing change. Ongoing study in yoga and education has further grounded this work in embodied practice, clear structure, and real-world application.
Personal experience of grief and relocation has further shaped this work, underscoring the need for gentleness, patience, and practices that support real-life transitions.
Together, these influences inform an approach that centres awareness, reflection, and sustainable change - supporting people to build capacity over time, rather than pushing for outcomes.
Ways to Work Together
-
The Nothing Pretty community is the primary space for this work.
It offers ongoing embodied practice, nervous system education, reflection, and shared rhythm, supporting slow, honest change without pressure or performance.
This space is for women who want continuity rather than quick fixes, and a place to return to themselves over time.

$90 NZD · 60 minutes
One-to-one sessions are available for women who want more contained, individual support alongside the shared practice.
These sessions are not about fixing or pushing forward, but about slowing down, working with patterns as they arise, and restoring choice in real time.

$90 NZD · 60 minutes
Yoga and movement are used here as tools for embodiment and nervous system regulation, not performance or achievement.
Offerings may include individual sessions, small groups, or contextual movement support — always in service of awareness and integration, rather than progression or intensity.
