About Cassie

I have ridden the rollercoaster of Love, my hair blown back, hands held high up in the air, laughing, squealing, screaming, crying, blissed out and terrified. Experiencing the gamut of emotions associated with living this life with an open heart.

I’ve swooned in love, been cracked open by heartbreak, felt the euphoria of delivering heaven to earth through the birth of my children, ached in grief for the loss of my loved ones.

What is clearer for me than ever, is that Love is at the core of it all; and that Love needs to be celebrated!!

The nutshell version of me is that I was born in Byron Bay and have spent most of my life in the area. I am a mother of 3 boys. I love horse riding, martial arts, belly dance, and singing. I love travelling and learning about different cultures and people so I've lived overseas for over 5 years and circumnavigated the planet multiple times. After studying business, I spent over a decade in the corporate world before getting knocked off that trajectory by the universe several years ago. Since that time I have come back to my heart and am now following the path that I was put on this earth to travel. That path is to connect to humanity and to expand the conversation of Love throughout the world. I work as a Love Based Leadership Consultant, Coach and Educator, and as a Civil Celebrant. These roles allow me to facilitate and expand people's fullest expression of Love; and that is a beautiful thing!

As a Civil Celebrant, it is my absolute privilege and joy to facilitate these conversations and rituals of Love and commitment. As a program leader and educator, I’ve presented to thousands of people, but for me, nothing beats the intimacy of the conversations that are had between a marrying couple at the front of that room. The welcome and promises made to a new born baby by their community. Holding a grieving family through the process of losing one of their own. This is my heart work and I love it!
