Ask Andrea

Can’t meet face to face?

This is an accessible place to get practical advice and emotional support by email. Ask me something and get a full response, direct to your inbox. Email support is popular for a number of reasons. Many prefer privacy. Some clients tell me they hardly ever have a moment alone. Others are time limited and some live in different time zones.

Ask Andrea is an option that gives you access to support and advice, privately. You’ll book an hour in my calendar and get an email in your inbox at the end of that hour.

• Richly Nourishing

  Smart, funny, direct, deft and caring: Andrea’s approach gets through to all ages and styles – from teenagers to academics; parents to management executives; and teachers to business owners.
