Hello there!
I am Emma and I am passionate about us reaching our full potential, whilst not neglecting our wellbeing.
- I am a transformational life coach, working with individuals, teams and organisations to maximise impact and create calm, connection, presence and clarity.
- In my professional life I have worn many hats, from working high up in politics in the UK, to running an online jewellery business to advocating for mental health with Beyond Blue (Australia) and co-founding and running an NGO for those on the streets in Costa Rica and most recently piloting a group coaching programme for human trafficking survivors.
- I am a huge advocate for mental health, self-care, self-compassion and all the things I have had to learn for myself – often the hard way!
- I am a recovering over-achiever, overthinker and people pleaser.
- I am a mum of two teens, wife, solopreneur and dog mum.
- I have been gradually reclaiming who I am and what I want in life and firmly believe we all have the answers inside ourselves, we just need support and guidance to help us find them sometimes.
- I have experienced anxiety and depression at various points in my life and have broken free from this thanks to a variety of tools and techniques that helped me. I am committed to supporting and empowering others to find their own journey too.
- I often reflect on my why, which is that I never wish anyone to feel like they are alone or can´t make a real change or difference. Whatever we are struggling or juggling with in life, I believe that we are never alone in that, but it can so often feel that way when we are in the thick of it.
- I am British, but have also lived in France, Australia and Costa Rica and currently live in Spain.
- I love the outdoors, learning, and all things personal development and psychology. I also enjoy playing padel (a hybrid of tennis and squash) sea-swimming, food, dancing and travel. I also am a member of a women’s football team and I am very proud to have represented Spain at an international football tournament tournament. I also lead the Costa Women Benalmadena group for those who have moved to/looking to move to Spain.
I am dedicated to supporting individuals and teams the best I can in their personal and professional development and life journey. We can all be faced with challenges at different phases in our lives. It might be with our wellbeing and mental health, uncertainty or stuckness about what we are facing, lacking clarity on who we are and what we want, learning to love and care for ourselves and our bodies. Neglecting these can have an impact on:
- Our physical and mental health
- Our relationships especially with our kids and loved ones
- Our bodies as we try to escape our busy and punishing minds
- Not reaching our full potential or feeling fulfilled.
I have encountered so many of these challenges myself and now help individuals and teams to break free and create an intentional, impactful and authentic life that they love.

Furthermore, I firmly believes that midlife or menopause are not times to be endured with trepidation, but rather, opportunities for self-renewal and exploration. I champion a more refreshing perspective, encouraging women to approach this new phase with a sense of wonder and curiosity. From my own experience, I have learnt that leaving my needs not listened to (mainly by myself!), it can lead to resentment, frustration and severely impact our mental health. Learning from my experiences and many other women I have worked with I have found a way to overcome the struggles of overthinking, overachieving whilst not overwhelming ourselves or neglecting our loved ones.
Want to break free from feeling stuck, overthinking, uncertainty and worry to create connection, clarity and calm? Time is not running out – it is just time to get excited about this next phase in life!
