๐Ÿ‘‹ Hi, I'm Mercedes
So happy to be here I just watch Gooseโ€™s chat with Evelyn and though it was about time I got involved here.
This is the intro that I normally share but to add the bits in, my favourite colour is green and my favourite Pokรฉmon is Lucario. I will say I am a bit old for Pokรฉmon but have a 5 year old boy and so have home quite a fan
โœจ A bit about me:
Born in London, grew up in Hertfordshire, and lifelong Arsenal fan โšฝ
Studied maths at university (and even started a PhD)
Became a Yoga Teacher in 2014 and Yoga Sports Coach in 2015 ๐Ÿง˜โ€โ™€๏ธ
Born and raised vegetarian, turned vegan in 2013 ๐ŸŒฑ
Once ran an ecommerce store selling knitting supplies, Iโ€™ve always loved creating things with my hands. ๐Ÿงถ
โœจ Life right now:
Single mum to my amazing 5-year-old son โค๏ธ
Serial renovator โ€” 8 moves in 9 years and counting ๐Ÿก
I have an allotment, an RHS qualification in horticulture, and an ongoing love affair with the sea ๐ŸŒŠ
Passionate about slow living, cycles, and finding peace in the in-between spaces.
โœจ My spiritual side:
My dad studied with the Dalai Lama, so I grew up with Buddha statues and deep conversations about compassion ๐Ÿ•‰๏ธ
Had my first psychic dream at 14 and trained in mediumship at 19 ๐Ÿ”ฎ
Meditated daily for almost a decade (minus those early months of motherhood, survival mode is real ๐Ÿ˜…).
I adore candles but am allergic incense! ๐Ÿ•ฏ๏ธ
โœจ My work:
I create spaces that help people pause, reconnect, and rebuild steadiness after stress, like my Skool community, The Sacred Pause.
Iโ€™m also building The Spiritual Directory, a home for conscious creators to grow their work sustainably, without the hustle.
My approach blends nervous system awareness, energy work, and grounded spirituality, because real transformation starts when the body finally feels safe enough to soften.
