‘Cultivating our innate magic’

Hi, I’m Kirsty


Thanks for visiting my portfolio website 🙂
I keep an overview of my work, events and offers of service here. Please explore and see what resonates with you today.

Creativity, imagination, intuition, empathy, psychic capacities and more…

Do you think and feel deeply? All the time?

It may interest you to know that approx 20% of people are naturally ‘hardwired’ this way. They soak in more sensory information than most, and also processes that information very deeply. This is their ‘processing style’. They therefore experience their world as rich and intense. They perceive more information from both their external outer-world environment and their internal inner-world too, and with a heightened awareness of subtlety, nuance and detail that many others would tend to miss. These people are considered to share an innate trait and are often colloquially termed a ‘highly sensitive person’ (HSP). They are meaning-makers, ponderers, seekers, dreamers. They thrive on having a deep sense of purpose.

Paradoxical being

This unusual resting state of being comes with personal challenges such as: proneness to anxiety, overwhelm, habits of people-pleasing and perfectionism, intense ‘inner critics’ and chronic self-doubt… yet it also comes with curious advantages. These advantages are often overlooked; valuable gifts such as creativity, empathy, intuition… and more. In archetypal terms, HSPs are the sages, wisefolk, magicians and healers of their community. As such, they may also be seen by the majority as a little eccentric, ‘alternative’ or wyrd… Often the challenges receive so much focus, it is to the exclusion of the gifts, leading directly to their being misunderstood and mislabelled as ‘too sensitive’.

...both and...

…both and…

As an HSP myself, a professional coach and research psychologist, I am here to advocate for your sensitivity. To help resolve the challenges (not ‘fix’) as we uncover, celebrate and leverage those wonderful advantages – to cultivate a beautiful and potent ‘innate magic’ within. It’s my mission to empower others to step-up and step forward, as the natural thought-leaders, influencers, healers and change-makers they can be, so we can help to re-enchant this anxious world, together.

How can I help?

To help achieve this mission, I have created a self-help book, a membership club and a retreat. For those seeking it, I can offer personal coaching too.

Book

An upbeat guide to transforming anxiety into creative will. A blend of psychology, philosophy and lived experience to fire up your manifesting mojo.

Membership

Join the online club for live group coaching sessions, programmes and courses all within my membership club: The IF Crowd

Retreat

Join us for the SENSE Retreat this October. A special 4-night residential stay at the award-winning Broughton Sanctuary, Yorkshire, UK.

Research

Parapsychology and Wellbeing

I am also engaged in scientific research exploring sensitivity, exceptional experience and capacities of consciousness, such as mind-matter interactions and extra-sensory perception. The implications and applications of this research informs my services and practice. This field of research is often considered ‘frontier’ as it is helping to shape our collective understanding of who we really are as human beings – and what we are really capable of.

Sensitive Magic

A 12-week online programme.
Next cohort beeings May 2025

This is a personal development programme inside my membership The IF Crowd designed for sensitive, aspirational people who want to uncover their hidden gifts, gain clarity and empowerment within – so they can resolve their blocks and actively manifest tangible outcomes and purpose. The aim is for you to embrace your subtle skills of creativity, imagination, intuition, empathy and psychic capacities – and use those depth talents to your advantage in your personal and professional life.

…Ready to Grow with the Flow?

The way we think, feel and interact with the world is changing fundamentally. Understanding and harnessing the potential of consciousness is empowering us for health, wealth and unity. From influencers and artists to communities and businesses who lead the vanguard of progress, upgrading the human conscious experience is essential to growth and sustainability in the shifting landscape of evolving culture, spirituality and technology.

A note to reluctant leaders:

Many individuals feel they are ‘called’ to lead – but few answer the call. Even though the call keeps coming! Often, it is because they are lost in the darkness of doubt or, hidden by the shadows of self-limiting belief. Artists, writers, spiritual teachers, social and community activists so often have such incredibly powerful things to say, are driven by sincere passion and an ardent desire to act and make a difference – but they struggle to find the words, remain invisible despite years of service, have been restricted by expectations of others or feel that although they have the ‘vision’ they are lost without direction.

If this is you, then now is your time to be seen, heard and understood.

and finally…

So you see, I celebrate the extra-ordinary, the unconventional, the hidden and the overlooked beauty of body, mind and spirit. I have a lifetime’s experience of subverting the norms, seeking and celebrating alternative perspectives, of forging bold new paths and encouraging others to tread theirs too. I have supported many beautiful people to shine brilliantly for others to see, admire and follow.

So I am asking: Is this resonating with you too? Do you feel it?

“I entered the class as a sceptic and suspected Kirsty was possibly slightly mad…I actually left suspecting Kirsty was in fact a bit of a genius.”
