and The Welcome Mat™, we empower caregivers to reconnect with their confidence, compassion, and intuition. Relationship repair with mindfulness and
self-compassion is at the heart of what we do.

Cultural Respect
Acknowledgement of Country
I respectfully acknowledge the Barngarla, Nauo, Wirungu and Mirning people as the Traditional Owners of the land on which I live and work, on the Eyre Peninsula in South Australia. Growing up here has deepened my respect for this country—including bushland, waterways, native plants, and animals—and for the cultural wisdom and connection of the Traditional Owners. I honour their enduring ties to land, waters, and community, and pay my respects to Elders past, present, and emerging.
