“Education is what remains after one has forgotten everything he learned in school”– Albert Einstein
Where school taught you to answer the questions given to you, we inspire you to ask your own.
Where school trained you to do what you are told, we encourage you to do what you love.
Where school taught you to fear making mistakes, we teach there are only lessons.
Where you have been led to believe learning is boring, we are here to liberate you from boring.
Where school trained you to compete with others, we teach you to only compete, kindly, with the person you were yesterday.
Where school trained you to fit in with everyone else, we dare you to discover what makes you unique and be unapologetically yourself.
Where school made you learn things that were meaningless to you, we inspire you to follow your curiosity and passion.
Where you were trained to live in the safety of your comfort zone, we dare you to embrace challenge as the catalyst for personal evolution.
Where you were trained to live in the limited matrix of your mind, we will playfully guide you back to the expansive freedom of your heart.
I’ve been enchanted by all things mysterious since I can remember, for the truth is the best medicine and greatest of all adventures.
When I was seven and given my very first library book voucher in my school library, filled with wonder and awe at the possibilities, I shyly explored the library until finding myself at home in the tiny, dusty “mystery” section tucked away in the corner of the library.
At eight I playfully created my own school, ‘The Club’, for neighbourhood friends, for as the oldest in the tribe I took it upon myself to teach them everything I knew, and would merrily spend my free time designing unique lessons and activities. My youngest student knew how to read and write before her first day of school.
To this day I still love playing teacher and designing action-based lessons that transform people's live by teaching them to rewire their brain and connect with their heart's wisdom and feeling of aliveness.
I also believe it's important to approach therapy with this mindset: there is nothing "wrong" with you and you are already amazing, loved by God and worthy of your own approval, just as you are now. However, the evolutionary process of self-realisation and self-transformation is never ending and may as well be embraced and enjoyed.
Some of my favourite teachers of practical and esoteric wisdom include Gigi Young, Kelly Kolodney, Matias DeStefano, Esther Hicks, Jordan Peterson, Jane Roberts, Esther Perel and Marissa Peer.
Have fun on your adventures down the rabbit hole of your own mysterious heart, as you travel further in and further up.

Club Values
1.. The Golden Rule: Treat Others How You Wish To Be Treated
Be kind and choose love as much as possible.
Respect is the birthright of all living creatures, including mother Earth herself.
Be aware of where you invest your energy: for example, when you buy something, you are voting for something.
“Your greatest vote is in the buck, not the ballot” - Unknown
2.. Be True
Be true to you. Be unapologetically you.
What does this look like?
Self-Honesty: Regularly check in with yourself: is this what I truly feel or want?
Aligned Choices: Actively make choices that reflect your values and goals, even in small ways.
Setting Boundaries: Practice setting boundaries that honour your energy and peace of mind.
Non-comparison: Focus on your unique path and avoid comparisons. This means being okay with where you are, even if others seem "ahead."
Embracing Flaws and Strengths: Accept both your strengths and weaknesses without shame or excuse.
Speak Authentically: Communicate your thoughts and feelings openly, and choose words that are true to you. Rather than saying what you think others want to hear, express your perspective kindly and honestly, even if it feels vulnerable.
Self-compassion: Embrace yourself as you are, including your mistakes. When you mess up, offer yourself grace and learn from it without letting it deter your self-worth or belief in who you are.
Regular Reflection: Spend a few minutes each day reflecting on moments when you felt true to yourself (and when you didn’t).
3.. Devotional Self Care
Embrace yourself as your own most ultimate teacher, therapist, carer & coach.
Your wellness if your responsibility, and although we all have gifts of insight and perspective to offer one another, it is imperative to learn to support yourself first and foremost, for nobody will ever be able to care for, love, understand and coach yourself the way you can.
Treat self care like the religion you are devoted to, for the more full your cup is, the more you will have to give to others.
4.. Have Holy Curiosity: Wonder Wisely
“Questions are the keys that cause the secret doors of the psyche to open.” – Clarissa Pinkola Estés
Follow the mysterious. Ask good questions. And even when you think you’ve found the truth, stay curious.
“The most beautiful thing we can experience is the mysterious. It is the source of all true art and science. He to whom the emotion is a stranger, who can no longer pause to wonder and stand wrapped in awe, is as good as dead —his eyes are closed” - Einstein
Entertain thoughts that feel good, dream big and dream often; wonder like a boss.
“Anyone who lives within their means suffers from a lack of imagination.” – Oscar Wilde
The ability to visualise, to see what is not yet before us and overlay our reality with what we want, rather than focusing on what we don't want or have, is the art of conscious creating. It is the craft of the alchemist.
“Always, when you feel good, you are in the place of attracting that which you are wanting” - Esther Hicks
By dreaming ourselves into higher states of feeling and being, we can literally dream ourselves into new worlds.
5.. Shine Your Disco Balls; Be Brave
Fear comes from the past. Just as the past holds us to what has been and can prevent us from moving forward, the more we hold onto old concepts and old ways, the more we allow the past to become our future experience.
“Fear has two meanings: Forget Everything And Run, or Face Everything And Rise. The choice is yours.” – Zig Ziglar
“Courage is resistance to fear & mastery of fear, not absence of fear” – Mark Twain
Fear is not a bad or wrong, it has a purpose and is telling us that something needs to be done: it does not always cause suffering, sometimes it can save your life.
Fear is an integral part of life and cannot be removed or destroyed. Only when we stop resisting it and start learning from it, can we become free of it’s hold on us.
“The fears we don’t face, become our limits” – Robin Sharma
6.. Live From The Heart; Let Love Be Your Compass
"The longest journey you will make in your life is from your head to your heart" - Sioux Legend
The heart is the pathway to infinite wisdom, and contains the power of life itself, of divine intelligence. The ancient Egyptians saw the heart as the organ of truth: the seat of the soul; the essence of who you are.
The heart is the most powerful source of electromagnetic energy in the human body, about 60 times greater in amplitude than the electrical activity generated by the brain.
Use your mind to direct your focus, but let love be your compass.
The vibrational frequency that you emanate from you heart, which, when you are in a state of love, grace and gratitude, is the highest and most powerful frequency in the universe, and affects the world at the greatest rate.
The quickest and simplest way to get into your heart is to think of something that makes you smile.
7.. Be Grateful
“Gratitude turns what we have into enough” – Melodie Beattie
All the riches of the world are worth nothing without gratitude.
“Gratitude is the healthiest of all human emotions. The more you express gratitude for what you have, the more likely you will have even more to express gratitude for” – Zig Ziglar
8.. Accept What Is
“We cannot change anything unless we accept it” – Carl Jung
What we resist, persists. Hence, the irony of transformation is that in order to grow, we must accept ourselves as we are. We must accept what is, whilst joyfully creating the new.
“You work so hard to fix yourself, but maybe what you need isn’t another tactic, another book, another five-step plan. Maybe you don’t need to be fixed. Maybe, what’s really holding you back is the idea that you need to be fixed” – Vironika Tugaleua
Although we are passionate about personal development, we try not to take ourselves too seriously, for we believe that the journey should feel good and be treated as play, otherwise it can become counter-productive.
“Give up the struggle of improving yourself and accept the perfection that you are” - Esther Hicks
9.. Live Life As Play
To play is to lose yourself in the joy of moment doing something for no specific purpose other than because it feels good and satisfies ones curiosity.
“Men do not quit playing because they grow old; they grow old because they quit playing.” - Oliver Wendell Holmes Sr.
Play is how we learn… "Play is the highest form of research" - Einstein
Play is how we connect… "You can discover more about a person after an hour of play than you can after a year of conversation " - Plato
Play is how we stay present… “This is the real secret of life -- to be completely engaged with what you are doing in the here and now. And instead of calling it work, realize it is play.” - Alan W. Watts
Play is how we heal… "Healing takes place in the frequency of joy, so if you want to heal something, go play" - Christie Sheldon
10.. Pray & Meditate
Cultivate our own unique personal relationship to the divine.
Prayer is how we speak to God, Meditation is how we listen.
11.. Have Faith
Cultivate a sense of faith.
Wonder is a powerful beautiful tool, but must be done in balance.
The best cure to overthinking is faith. Sometimes the missing ingredient is simply trusting that your spirit has a plan greater than yours. That all things are working out for the greater good of all. That everything has it’s time and place. That you are being taken care of by forces beyond your wildest imagination.
