Meet Erin

Hi I'm Erin, the heart behind Flourish.

I've always been curious about the deeper layers of people and am a lifelong learner of Eastern and Western philosophies. With a background in psychology,  phone counselling, mental health and human resources, I bring a depth of understanding about the many transitions we move through in life, creating safe spaces where women can feel truly seen, heard and supported through every season of life.

I am an IYTA diploma qualified and Yoga Alliance accredited, trauma-informed Yoga Teacher with certification in Polarity Therapy from Nature Care College in Sydney. I've been practising yoga since my teen years and facilitating yoga and holistic wellness for the past 23 years, layering in other trainings such as Mat Pilates, Barre and Breathwork Facilitation. I bring together my unique blend of intuitive movement, breath, sound, touch, and meditative states to enable people to go within and experience the power of compassionate presence.

After being diagnosed with double hip osteoarthritis early in 2025, I needed to slow down and adapt, moving in ways that really supported my body. Holding space for others has been my life's work but like so many women, I was not so good at practicing self-care for myself. This diagnosis helped me remember and it's a different kind of body wisdom, one I feel called to share through all my teachings. As of August 2026 I have now received a double hip replacement which has aided in emotional healing as well as the physical.

Now in my 52nd year, I have navigated intense periods of change and a midlife awakening which has continued to shape Flourish offerings alongside my continued personal evolution. The learnings and growth I have experienced through my life experiences have given rise to Sacred Thresholds, held both as a monthly women's gathering in Raglan and also a personal mentoring journey. Please see below for the story of my midlife awakening, spoken honestly and vulnerably, and more information on how you can journey with me.

Embodied Awareness Bodywork offers nourishing, unhurried 1:1 support for women navigating change or knowing something needs to change, transitions, or shifting identity. Through insightful conversation, embodiment and hands-on care, you are invited to reconnect with yourself and your emerging truth, embracing the woman you have become and integrating this wisdom into your life beyond the session.
