THE FUTURE IS WOW...

15 years ago my world was pulled from under me.

As my husband was telling me he was leaving me for another woman, 3 days after we'd moved to a new city, I got a phone call saying mother had tried to commit suicide.

 

Within 5 minutes my whole life changed.

 

Then followed a series of catalyst events that woke me up to how I’d been living disempowered - from chronically shy as a child to emotional abuse in a global church that some call a cult.

 

I faced deeply conditioned shame and changed the trajectory of my life.


As a solo parent I raised my son who was diagnosed with a chronic disease at 2 years old.
He is a creative, emotionally intelligent, confident young man. 

I host an inspirational podcast that has been top 10 in 11 countries.

I support the growth of Tall Poppies - inspiring others to change the trajectory of their lives ... to WOW.

 

BUT MY STORY ISN'T FINISHED YET

 

WHAT WE DO IN LIFE ECHOES IN ETERNITY

HOLY WOW


Categorising me the conventional way is tricky.
I've never been a fan of niching. Or boxes.

But I've been called:
Activator. Aesthete. Advisor. Architect.
Coach. Consultant. Creative. 
Designer. Director.
Energiser Bunny. Entrepreneur. Educator.
Intuitive. Interviewer.
Facilitator. Leader. Lecturer. 
Marketeer. Maximiser. Mentor.
Photographer. Podcaster. Preacher. Polymath. 
Renaissance Woman. 
Speaker. Strategist. Spiritual Teacher.
Tastemaker. Visionary. Writer.

Tall Poppy. 

Or as one intuitive friend once said...

'Merilyn, you showcase brilliance'!


I've worked with 1000's of organisations, businesses, teams, causes and individuals all over the globe... from startups, to boutique consultancies, to not-for-profit empires, to celebrities and award-winning premium brands.

I'm called on to add the energetic magic to award winning brands and million dollar launches.

But my son just calls me mum.

Mostly, I'm a down-to-earth Australian, with a dash of self-doubt, a wicked laugh, a love of British humour, and a determination to wake up humanity.
