About Pippa Best:
Pippa is an ocean advocate, passionate sea swimmer, and founder of nature wellness company, Sea Soul Blessings, where she shares mindful compassionate resources that connect us more deeply to the sea, and to ourselves.
A married mother of two living in Cornwall, she’s also an NLP-trained life coach, writer, social entrepreneur – and an experienced film script editor who has developed and led extensive media business development programmes.
Having worked in film and TV development for over 25 years, Pippa has also spent the last 10 hosting retreats in Cornwall, life/career coaching, writing and mentoring. A regular long term mindfulness, meditation and self-compassion practice – along with daily sea swimming – has transformed her own physical, mental and spiritual health.
Pippa is passionate about the positive impact of connecting to nature – and our responsibility to protect and preserve the natural world. She loves sharing the many gifts of time spent in and around the sea with others, as part of the Blue Mind groundswell started by Wallace J Nichols, author of Blue Mind.
In 2010, Pippa created her first impactful social enterprise, Story of Mum, to support mums via coaching, retreats, online courses and community. Sea Soul Blessings has expanded that vision to offer nature-inspired resources and encouragement to anyone in need of support through overwhelm, anxiety and stress.
About Sea Soul Blessings
Pippa’s vision for Sea Soul Blessings, founded in 2018, is to create compassionate resources that stimulate individual and global change, rooted in nature. So Sea Soul Blessings is a Plastic-Free Business Champion and Community Ally – focused on eliminating plastic and providing ongoing support for beach cleans and environmental activism. The company also donates from every sale to environmental causes.
Building Sea Soul Blessings from an idea into a business that’s actively making a positive impact on the world has helped Pippa to find hope for the planet in a time of crisis.
It’s a journey that’s taught her to trust her instincts and connection to a bigger life purpose, even when this means making a brave and scary move into a completely new business world and career path in mid-life.
Creating Sea Soul Blessings has also given Pippa first hand experience of the “blue mind” benefits and positive impact on mental and physical health of spending time in and by the sea. As well as the life-changing impact of incorporating self compassion and daily mindfulness practices into daily life. I
t has supported her to overcome mental and physical challenges – learning to move through anxiety and defy her inner critic, as well as managing the pain of early onset arthritis and injuries.
Pippa is always learning – undertaking training in coaching skills, self compassion and mindfulness, climate and nature connectedness, business and social enterprise development, amongst others – with practitioners such as Brené Brown and Kristin Neff. She is a certified Mental Health First Aider.
