About

I’m Naomi, the human behind Gratitude Worldwide Ltd. and the future Gratitude Costa Rica. My work has always sat at the intersection of education, wellbeing and community and over the years it’s taken many forms: facilitating learning in the UK and abroad, creating a retreat centre in Vietnam, remote consultancy projects, and offering sound and energy work in communities. Each of these carried the same thread: education, wellbeing, and the belief that we can grow stronger together.

 

Alongside me in all of this is Dusty, my faithful canine co‑traveller and unwitting mindfulness teacher. He’s been there through COVID, flights, logistics and new smells, reminding me to take breathers and enjoy the small things, especially walks and patches of grass. When I say “we” in these stories, I often mean the two of us figuring it out together.

 

I write these blogs to share the real story of moving countries and beginning again. It isn’t polished or perfect. It’s messy at times, often tiring, but full of kindness and moments of connection that remind me why this journey matters.

​

At the heart of my work is a hope that’s never changed: to create spaces where people can breathe, connect and heal. That runs through my consultancy with Gratitude Worldwide as much as it does through the dream of building a retreat in Costa Rica.

​

This blog is part of that journey, and Dusty and I would love for you to walk alongside us as Gratitude Costa Rica begins to take shape.
