365 Grateful is a project started by Hailey back in 2008 that has grown into an online community, three short films and a book published world-wide by Penguin. During the project, Hailey took one photo every day of something she was grateful for. This discipline helped her to see and celebrate the good in her own life and affected not only the way she felt spiritually and physically but it improved her relationships with others too.

Beautiful Becoming is a video I made for my daughter’s 18th birthday. In fully seeing the magic of her life, inspiration found me and became an instigator for so much of my own growth. It helped awaken in me my desire to become a better human. In a strange, beautiful twist, my children have become my greatest teachers. If I had not stopped, not taken the time to see what was right in front of me, I may have missed this lesson.

My Happy Heart is an animated series that explores the stories of a collection of diverse characters on a quest to nurture their happy heart; introducing children to healthy approaches they can use to live a happier life and look after their wellbeing. My Happy Heart champions children to take hold of their power by asking themselves, ‘What makes my heart happy?’

In this intimate, 15min documentary, we face about ageing head on, exploring the moment that irrevocably changed the course of three women’s lives. Divorcing after 38 years of marriage to a highschool sweetheart, going to university at 71 and selling it all to go off grid – this film seeks out women who offer a fresh blueprint for ageing on their own terms. From the experience that changed it all to the fall out and the rebuild, we tackle the stigma around getting older that plagues women of all ages. AGELESS is equal parts heart wrenching and heartwarming, an often hilarious, no holes barred look into life on the other side of 50 and perhaps why we shouldn’t be so scared after all – COMING SOON.

In a world where the challenges of the past can shape our future, this full feature documentary is a heartfelt journey of self-discovery and healing, aimed at empowering parents to understand themselves on a deeper level. It dares to challenge the status quo by demonstrating how confronting and releasing long-held coping mechanisms and emotions from childhood can lead to profound transformation.
