I help you release stress and overwhelm and find your way home, back to your true authentic self.

Here you can read my full story. I hope it will inspire you and show you what is possible as you embark on your own journey.

My story

I spent a big part of my life looking for myself, for who I was. Growing up, I learned that expressing my true self wasn’t safe — it would result in being shut down, shouted at, criticised.

There was also the repeated messages: “there is not enough for us”, “we are less than…”, "the world is a dangerous place so better keep safe", which became my thoughts and beliefs.As I result I disconnected. I built a wall around me, subconsciously trying to anticipate others’ expectations to keep the peace.

This made me overly analytical, defensive, and constantly on high alert.

I became split—I portrayed a strong, confident exterior, but inside I was filled with worry and anxiety.

Most importantly, I had no real sense of who I was (although I was not really aware of this).

Like many of us, I was told how to think, behave, and what to study to secure a “good” job.
I spent years pursuing goals that, looking back, weren’t truly aligned with who I am.

I DROPPED EVERYTHING AND FLEW TO AUSTRALIA

Fast forward few years. I graduated as a "Doctor in Pharmaceutical science". I landed a well-paid job, I had “made it” according to society's standards.

All my friends were settling down—finding jobs, building houses, thinking about kids.

I could see my path laid out ahead of me, but inside, the turmoil only grew louder.

I felt imprisoned, suffocated, empty, and disconnected.

Surely there was something more to life?

My soul craved freedom. I had to break free.

So, I left France and flew as far away as I could—landing in Sydney, Australia. That move became for many changes.

In rebuilding my life—learning a new language, forging new friendships, and finding a new career—I realised how much we are shaped by societal conditioning. Our lives can become mere constructs of labels and facades. To truly know ourselves, we must first unlearn everything.

Although physically I was far away from my old life, it didn’t really solve anything. I had brought my ghosts with me. I had no keys…so I started looking for answers.

MY HEALING JOURNEY STARTED THEN...

Over the years, I enrolled in various courses and learnt the tools to befriend fear and my shadows, to reopen myself to feel, to speak my truth, to let go of fear of judgement. I reconstructed a belief system that was more in alignment with who I truly was.

I remember a course a practitioner saying to me, “You are too much in your head, come to your heart.” I honestly could not even understand what they were meaning by this. ”What do you mean my heart?” - and yet they were sooo right.

It all started to come together and make sense.

I came across a weekend introduction to kinesiology and I became hooked. I embarked on the journey and became a kinesiologist.

MY BIGGEST TAKE AWAYS...

Setting up as a kinesiologist was just the beginning of my journey of realigning my life to my true self, revealing many more lessons along the way.

I am a completely different person today, not because I’ve reached a final destination, but because I finally feel home within myself. I’ve let go of misaligned patterns and scarcity, no longer needing to disconnect or shy away from heavy feelings. My body now guides me towards what feels expansive, rather than relying solely on my mind. I truly understand what balance means.

I still have bad days and face disappointments—these are a natural part of being human. I'm not here to sell you the forever happy after. I leave this for movies or sales pitches from coaches promising unrealistic outcomes.

Yet, I’ve learned that these moments are temporary and that they will pass. I now approach them with a sense of acceptance and resilience, knowing that each challenge is an opportunity for growth. I understand that feeling through these experiences, rather than avoiding them, helps me stay connected to my true self and maintain inner peace. 

Healing is truly a journey, not a destination. It is a journey of returning home to yourself.

Sometimes, it takes a significant wake-up call—like disease, burnout, or job loss—for us to start looking within.

However, we don't have to wait for such events to begin our journey of self-discovery and healing.

By healing our unmet needs, understanding why we do what we do, we can chose a different response. For example, putting the computer down when we are tired, prioritising time with our kids over working late to please our boss, letting go a toxic relationship.

This self-awareness allows us to listen to our inner voice and pursue our true passions without needing external validation.

When we feel self-worth and contentment from the inside, not from our job status, our bank account, our looks, no one can take this self-worth away from us.

What you need on this journey is acquiring a set of tools, understanding, practices that you can use to bring you back on the path.

This is exactly what I'm here to share with you. To empower yourself on your own healing journey. To remind you that you are the medicine and all the answers you are seeking as within you.

We’re not victims of our fate. It's time to reclaim your power and become the creator of your life.

Love Notes

“Aurelie is amazing! I was feeling slightly lost in my emotions and in a short period of time she was able to help me clear a pathway to happiness and contentment. Her combination of techniques works brilliantly. I certainly recommend her to anyone needing to gain more clarity in their lives so they can live a more ‘in-tune’ lifestyle.

Lynne Forsythe

“As someone who suffers from a highly critical mindset i am very keen to develop an ability to listen to my heart more. This is the groundwork that we have been working on and i feel that in just 4 sessions we have covered more that i have in 25+ psychology appointments. I have found it very easy to talk to Aurelie and open myself up to what is a new experience. I have been talking to many people at work about my sessions and would highly recommend to others. Thanks Aurelie!
