About me…

Hi, I’m Annette, founder of Creatively Reflect. I created this space for women who are carrying too much for too long—women who want to regain clarity and calm, without the pressure to “do more.”

I understand what it feels like to navigate burnout firsthand. I’ve walked my own journey through grief, professional overwhelm, and the complexities of family life. As a woman of colour, I’ve experienced the unique societal and cultural pressures that can intensify stress, leaving you exhausted and disconnected from yourself.

In high-stress seasons, our minds and bodies can feel stuck in overdrive. Burnout isn’t just about being tired, it is a signal that your nervous system needs care. That is why I combine:

• Mindful Photography – to anchor your attention, slow racing thoughts, and reconnect with beauty in everyday moments
• Reflective Journaling – to process emotions, release mental load, and gain clarity
• CBT-Based Coaching – to build lasting emotional resilience and practical coping skills

With over a decade in health and social care, along with training in Cognitive Behavioural Therapy, life coaching, journal therapy, and mindful photography with Look Again, I bring both lived experience and evidence-based tools.

Creatively Reflect meets women exactly where they are, honoring emotional depth while providing practical strategies to navigate stress, overwhelm, and burnout. This is a space to pause, reflect, and rebuild from the inside out. Through mindful photography, reflective journaling, and CBT-based coaching, I guide women to:

• Rebuild self-trust and emotional resilience
• Reconnect with clarity and calm
• Ground themselves, even in life’s most overwhelming seasons

You don’t have to do it all alone. This is your space to pause, reflect, and rediscover yourself.
