About Me
Welcome, I’m Jasmine (she/her).
I spent 25 years leading people and growth at some of Australia's most iconic brands - Swisse Wellness, T2 Tea, and Mecca - sitting at executive tables, building teams, and navigating the complexity that comes with fast growth and relentless pressure.
I loved it. What I loved most, though, and what felt most meaningful, was the people side. Understanding them and watching them grow.
My psychology degree had always run beneath the surface of my work, shaping how I listened, how I led, and how I understood people. Five years ago I deepened this foundation with a Masters in Counselling.
Light Despite grew from there, as a place where you can talk about your CV and your self-worth in the same session - and become someone more like yourself in the process.
I believe that you can't have the outer life you want without doing the inner work.
I work with people who are questioning and are in the space between who they've been and who they're becoming.
I'm based in the inner north in Naarm. I love books and vintage shopping. I see astrology - Virgo sun, Leo rising and Libra moon - as a serious self-awareness tool and a way to access hope and create momentum. As I age I am committed to remaining curious and open, and am enjoying deepening my self-knowledge and expanding my world view.
I'm also a mother, and I know what it is to have a career, a family and an identity and still wonder who you actually are. None of it exists in isolation —we are complex and multilayered which is why I take a pragmatic yet holistic approach.
If you're curious about how you could become someone more like yourself, I'd love to hear from you.
