Who We Are
Rooted in Depth. Rising with Purpose.
In a world brimming with noise, performance, and pressure to “keep up,” Rising Tides was born from a quieter truth – that real change doesn’t start in boardrooms or on stages. It starts within. With the brave ones willing to wade into their own depths.
We’re not another self-help movement. We’re a soul-led revolution for leaders, creatives, and change-makers who know there’s more to success than strategy. At Rising Tides, we invite you to trade polish for presence, and performance for purpose.
Our story isn’t about fixing you. It’s about helping you remember who you really are, and why that matters more than ever. When you rise from within, you ripple beyond.

Our Story
Our Journey: From the Dead Zone to the Deep End
Sharon and Alex were living what looked like “success.” The degrees. The titles. The grind. But beneath the surface was a dull ache — a quiet knowing that something essential was missing. They called it the Dead Zone — where achievement feels empty, connection is performative, and burnout wears a polished smile.
Health. Relationships. Identity. Everything started wobbling. What looked like breakdowns were, in truth, breakthroughs. They began questioning the scripts they’d inherited — the hustle culture, the emotional suppression, the endless seeking outside themselves.
Instead of pushing harder, they chose to go deeper. Into shadow work. Emotional healing. Consciousness studies. Real, gritty, sacred inner work — the kind that doesn’t post well on Instagram but changes everything. They stripped away the noise and remembered who they were beneath it.
What began as personal transformation became collective. Others started asking: What are you doing differently? Why does it feel so real? They began hosting intimate workshops, holding space for leaders and creatives ready for truth over polish. The impact was immediate — and profound.
As the world shut down, something opened. Rising Tides was born not as a brand, but as a brave response. To create a space where truth could rise, wholeness could lead, and inner shifts could ripple into real change. Sharon and Alex combined their work — balancing fierce clarity and gentle compassion, masculine focus and feminine flow.
From small circles to global summits, Rising Tides now supports thousands of soul-led leaders. The work continues to evolve — grounded in depth, ignited by love, and always returning to the truth: when you rise from within, you ripple beyond.

Soul surgery — with snacks and laughter.
Linda - WIltshire
I wouldn’t have been able to make the leap from working for others to being self-employed without the support and encouragement I’ve received by being on a healing and self-discovery path. It has been, and continues, to be an exciting exploration into my true self and power.

Our Team
The Hearts Behind the Healing
More than professionals – they are catalysts. Listeners. Truth-tellers. Humans who’ve done their own deep work and now walk beside you, equipped with tools that actually move the needle
Alex Patchett - Joyce
Co-Founder | Lead Facilitator |Chief Consciousness Disrupter, Rising Tides
Alex has done a lot of things that looked impressive on LinkedIn. International shipbroking? Check. Senior marketing roles in massive multinational corporations? Done. Running her own ceramic conservation studio like some kind of soulful Indiana Jones of pottery? Absolutely.
From the outside, it all looked shiny. Successful. Sorted.
Inside? It felt more like, “Is this it? Is this the pinnacle of adulting? Should I feel more… alive?”
Turns out, the missing piece wasn’t another promotion or a better skincare routine. It was the work of Psychology of Vision (PoV) – a system that didn’t just offer insight, but deep, life – altering transformation that actually stuck. So naturally, Alex did what any newly awakened human would do: she trained to teach the stuff. Because when you find something that makes you laugh again after years of soul – drought, you don’t gatekeep it.
Now, as Co – Founder of Rising Tides, Alex brings a rare fusion of surgical clarity, nervous system – soothing presence, and the kind of deadpan humor that can break through even the most tightly clenched ego.
A Bio Moment: The Laugh Heard ‘Round the Theatre
Early in her healing journey, Alex attended a comedy show. Sounds simple, right? Except she hadn’t laughed – really laughed – in years. But that night, something cracked open. She laughed so hard she startled herself. That moment marked the return of joy, humour, and actual out – loud cackling at daily events. (And yes, people do still stare at her in cafés. She’s made peace with it.)
Now, she wakes up happy, mostly has a happy day, and goes to bed happy.
Not because she’s delusional – but because she’s aligned.
Why You Want to Work With Her
Alex is the facilitator who will gently unpick your lifelong patterns, help you unravel your emotional spaghetti, and somehow make you laugh while doing it. Her superpower? Delivering soul – level truth with surgical precision – and a side of hilarity that makes it go down like medicine laced with gin.
She’s here for the people who are done being “fine.” Who are ready for change with a capital T (for Transformation, or Tea, depending on the day).
She will not coddle your ego.
She will make your inner critic cry – laugh itself into retirement.
If you want breakthroughs without the burnout, humour with your healing, and a guide who’s as real as she is radiant – Alex is your person.
Book the session. Bring tissues. Maybe wear waterproof mascara. Definitely prepare to laugh.
Sharon Rose
Co - Founder | Programme Designer | Head of Ego Disruption, Rising Tides
Sharon Rose has lived many lives. From escaping the corporate admin trap with little more than a swimming badge and a stubborn refusal to stay stuck, to co – creating a business that houses homeless families and hosts spiritual awakenings – Sharon is living proof that transformation is not only possible, it’s wildly contagious.
Her journey didn’t start with a vision board or a 10 – year plan. It started with panic in a room full of hugging strangers. A Course in Miracles falling off a bookshelf and hitting her in the head. And a workshop she nearly fled from – until the man on stage called her name. That was the beginning of everything.
Since then, Sharon has built a life and business from the inside out. She’s trained extensively in the Psychology of Vision (PoV), Reiki, Feng Shui, intuitive healing, and next – level manifestation (and no, it’s not just about crystals or good vibes). She’s helped create a multi – six – figure property enterprise in under two years – while designing transformational programmes that actually get people free.
Why People Book Sharon (Even Before They Know Why)
She’s equal parts strategic genius and spiritual mischief – maker. She holds space like a mystic and thinks like a CEO. Her events are known for producing miracles, massive clarity, and suspiciously convenient coincidences. (Also, she’s hilarious – like, snort – laugh, change – your – life funny.)
She doesn’t pretend to have all the answers. But she knows how to ask the right questions. The kind that unravel your deepest blocks and set your real life in motion.
Her (Highly Questionable) Career Path
Launched a soulful housing business that serves real people, not profit margins
Owned and ran a restaurant (once. Let’s not talk about it.)
Manifested a chunk of cash from a house she forgot she owned
Studied miracles, energy healing, and the mysterious workings of the subconscious
Created programmes that blend ancient wisdom, cutting – edge psychology, and unapologetic truth bombs
And most importantly, she helps people remember who they are – then build lives, careers, and companies that reflect it.
“You don’t have to understand the whole path. You just have to take the next step.”
– Sharon Rose, Head of Miracles That Shouldn’t Have Worked But Did
So if your soul is tapping you on the shoulder and whispering “This. This is the thing”, it probably is.
Book the programme. Ready to Come Aboard?
If Sharon’s energy speaks to something inside you – curiosity, courage, maybe a long – lost sense of play – this is your invitation. The Rising Tides journey isn’t about fixing you; it’s about remembering what’s already whole.
Come aboard and discover what unfolds when you bring your full self to the helm.
You’ll never be the same.
