Hi, I'm Elizabeth

For a long time, I felt like I was searching for something; for who I was, for what I wanted to do, for my purpose in life. I was searching for that evasive inner balance and happiness. It took me over 10 long years to figure it all out. 

Here's My Story

Throughout my 20’s I was completely driven towards succeeding in all areas of my life and career. I thought that if I was ‘successful,’ if I achieved all my goals, and if I just kept pushing myself harder, then I would somehow figure out who I was and what I wanted in life. 

But after several years of working my way up the career ladder in Higher Education, all I felt was detached, de-motivated and burnt out. I acted differently with everyone I met, the few friendships I had were suffering, and I was consumed by self-doubt and anxiety. I still wasn’t sure who I was or what I wanted.

I couldn’t live like this for another year – I didn’t want to enter my 30’s unhappy and without direction.

Surface Level Changes

So, when I was presented with the opportunity to move abroad, I embraced it gladly. I quit the career I had painstakingly built and started out on a new path. I saw this as a chance to finally ‘figure it out’ and threw myself head first into pursuing some life goals.

But after a year of ticking everything off my pre-30 bucket list, it felt like I was no closer to the answers, feeling more lost than ever. Yet I knew in my heart that I was capable of so much more.

So on a hot July day, after fulfilling a long held dream, I found myself asking: What was next? What do I want to do with my life? Who am I? And suddenly it hit me – I still didn’t know. I couldn’t live like this for another year – I didn’t want to enter my 30’s unhappy and without direction. 

Something had to change!

Inner Clarity

Taking a leap of faith, not knowing what to expect, I hired a coach. She helped me to reconnect with the person that had been there all along, but had been hiding in the shadows, too fearful to shine. By learning to accept myself I also began to develop connections with others, making my relationships deep and meaningful. The coaching process replaced my anxiety and self-doubt with confidence.  

And because I was more in touch with who I was, I could see clearly what I wanted in life. It helped me realise that I wanted to help people achieve their goals by becoming coach.
