between two worlds

Tay's lived experience is littered with contradictions. She grew up between the Caribbean and the United Kingdom, between STEM and spirituality, between privilege and marginalisation.

Growing up in an academic and politically-conscious family, from a young age Tay was interested in history, psychology, socioeconomics and geopolitics. Interests that would drive her to obtain a B.Sc. in Psychology and Gender & Development Studies and an M.Sc. in Development Statistics.

Yet Tay's upbringing was deeply rooted in spirituality and creativity, and she learned early on that she would never be just one thing. She could not separate her connection to divinity from her material experience. She was both, she was all at once.

surviving corporate trauma and chronic illness

When Tay left university, she began working with what was on the surface a prestigious market research firm.

Despite her professional success working with financial firms, international development and government agencies, NGOs, and multinational corporations, Tay found herself trapped in a toxic work environment. Her work took a toll on her mental and physical health, leading to burnout, a health crisis, depressive episodes and chronic illness.

In the middle of the global pandemic and with no safety net, Tay resigned to save her life. She left the corporate world behind and embarked on self-healing journey. One that would eventually lead her back to her childhood dream of being a writer.

Today, Tay writes for thought leaders, executives and decision-makers across three continents. She brings together the practical world of research with the wisdom of energetics. Her dream? To transform the leadership status quo with curiosity, diversity, radical accountability and a little help from human design.
