“I’m not the same and that’s okay.” Finding yourself again no matter what life has thrown at you!

I understand first-hand the chaos that follows a major life event. My own journey led me to a profound realisation: change isn't something to fear; it's an opportunity to recreate and re-embrace who we are becoming. Armed with coaching expertise and personal experience, I'm here to guide you in unveiling your newfound self and saying, "I'm not the same, and that's okay."

Life changes us all, all of the time. Most of the time it's gradual but then along comes a major life event, often unasked for or unexpected, and we are floored. In my case a cancer diagnosis a few months before my 48th birthday, surgery followed by chemo inducing instant menopause on top of everything else and then radiotherapy. You get to the end, you ring that bell and everyone expects you to be celebrating, raring to go and instead you're lost, mentally and physically broken and can't even work out what you want, never mind how you get there and if that can happen to a coach with all the knowledge and tools at her disposal it can happen to anyone.

I really didn’t know who I was or what I wanted any more. All I did know was I’d been changed by the experience and doubted I would ever be the same again.

I’d been warned by my medical team that women often feel lost at the end of treatment but I wasn’t expecting how lost I felt. I read a perfect description of it – it’s like you’ve been in a boat in a massive storm, not just for hours or days but months and months and suddenly the sea is dead calm and the storm is over. You’re busy hunting round the boat working out what’s fixable, what’s broken beyond repair and then you start to look for the maps and charts to find your way home and you realise they’ve all gone overboard in the storm. So, you look up and realise that the boat is surrounded by thick fog. That is exactly how I felt. Storm swept and utterly lost. I brought myself back though, found my maps and charts for the life I want to lead now by using all my coaching skills and tools.

Your Journey

My example is extreme, life turned upside down by breast cancer and then not really knowing who I was by the end of it. My mantra became “I’m not the same, and that’s okay!”

Life's transformative moments can leave us feeling adrift and lost. Maybe it's a cancer diagnosis, the breakdown of a relationship, an empty nest, menopause, a job loss or a big birthday with a zero on the end. Whatever the catalyst, change shakes us from the routine, urging us to examine our lives with fresh eyes. It's natural to question where we're headed, to wonder if our desires and aspirations have shifted.

Embrace the Shift

Rather than shying away from change, let's lean into it. Let's acknowledge that we've been shaped by these experiences and that we're allowed to evolve. Imagine a life where you step confidently into your authentic self, driven by purpose and unburdened by societal expectations. Whether it's the echoes of a life-altering event or the whispers of midlife re-evaluation, our journeys are uniquely ours to claim.

Let's learn to embrace, own and celebrate that "I'm not the same and that's okay!" and let’s let others in our life do the same.

Why Work With Me?

I invite you to walk with me on a path of self-discovery, empowerment, and transformation. Perhaps you ever feel like life has changed you so much that you barely recognise yourself? And maybe there’s part of you scared that if you don’t get your act together, you might start losing the things that matter—your relationship, career, friendships? I can help you reconnect with who you are now, so you can create a life of joy and hope instead of fear.

Your Transformation Awaits:

It's time to rewrite your narrative. To acknowledge that you're not the same and to make new choices and decisions grounded in who you truly are and what you most desire. Your life, your way. Your life that reflects your true, authentic self who isn’t afraid to shine.
