Work Background
Lümia CollectiveFounder
May. 2025Surrey, England, United KingdomWe believe that joy is a rebellion. So through Lümia we have created a space where you can exhale. A space where you can breath, slow down, reconnect to yourself and with others seeking more, those on the path you're on. Travelling towards more connection. More joy. More clarity. More space. Breathing deeply and exhaling with intention. Those who know the importance of creating a regulated + strong inner world. Recognising that through this, they are able to return to the world + their daily responsibilities with more resilience, more calm, more peace. Feeling like they are in the driving seat and not that life is driving them. They can choose if they speed up, slow down, change direction or reverse. They can do this because they have created a deep sense of trust. Of connection. Of clarity. They are now making decisions guided by their values. Guided by presence and connection, in the backdrop of strong boundaries. They are honouring themselves. If this speaks to you. Join us on this journey. You can access this work through working directly with me. We work in an embodied way, guided and informed by you, your lived experience and your goals. You will have a programme designed for you. or You can join us on a workshop which run periodically throughout the year. This may be our 8 week deep dive or a one off event. Both options give you the opportunity to hit pause, slow down and reconnect with you. I am so invested in this work because I lost myself. I disconnected. I lost sight of what was important. I gave so much of myself to others that I stopped giving to myself and I burnt out. I approach this work through soul, being in-tune, listening to you, being guided by you. We build deep connection and high trust. My work is unique because I combine a number of modalities in order to guide, support and hold you. If you have been nodding along, let's connect ♡ I would love to hear more about your journey. www.lumiacollective.com

Joanna TaylorSpeaker | The Regulated Edge, People + Purpose | Positive Psychology & Sustainable Growth
Nov. 2022Windlesham, England, United KingdomI help people and organisations reconnect to what truly matters, creating cultures, leaders, and systems that deliver sustainable performance without burnout. After years as an elite athlete, my life was turned upside down by chronic illness. I lost my identity, purpose, and direction. What followed was a long journey through burnout, healing, and rebuilding. I learned to regulate my energy, honour my limits, and reshape my life from the inside out. Today, I speak, coach, and advise at the intersection of: Positive Psychology, Organisational Development, Nervous System-Informed Leadership, Regulated High Performance, and Sustainable Culture & Growth. My focus is helping people find their regulated edge: that place where ambition meets wellbeing, where systems support humanity, and where success actually feels good. Audiences I work with include: organisations shaping the edge of the future, leaders navigating uncertainty and change, teams under pressure, founders who feel drained despite success, and businesses reimagining culture and growth where human flourishing and performance go hand in hand. Talk titles include: - Work Wasn’t Meant to Break Us – building high-performing cultures without breaking people. - Burnout Doesn’t End at 6pm – reclaiming energy and focus for sustainable performance. - Regulation Isn’t a Trend, It’s the Future – why resilient leadership is the next advantage. - Stop Waiting for Retirement – creating joy, purpose, and performance now. - Who’s Paying the Price for Your Performance? – the ripple effect of burnout on culture and results. - What Corporates Can Learn from Freedom-Based Businesses – reimagining growth through autonomy, rhythm, and purpose. If you’re looking for a speaker who blends transformation, strategy, and psychology with warmth and edge, let’s connect.
