Holistic Life Coaching - D.A.R.E.
1:1 Holistic Life Coaching – D.A.R.E. 2 Become YOU
My coaching is built around my D.A.R.E. framework from my book D.A.R.E. 2 Become YOU!:
Discover, Accept, Release, Empower.
We begin by gently discovering where you are now and what is really going on beneath the surface. We then work on accepting your story and emotional landscape with compassion, rather than judgment. From there, we release what no longer serves you - beliefs, patterns, expectations - and finally, we empower you with tools and practices that support the life you actually want to live.
Sessions often explore themes such as:
Stress, anxiety, and burnout
Life transitions, identity shifts and “who even am I now?” moments
Boundaries, people pleasing and self-worth
Feeling lost, stuck or disconnected from your authentic self
Coaching is practical and grounded. You will leave with simple, doable steps to take between sessions so that change is not just something you talk about, it becomes something you live.
1:1 Coaching sessions available in person at Minerva Therapy Rooms or online. I offer a Free 30-minute discovery call, to explore whether this work is right for you.
Breathwork & Nervous System Regulation
Breathwork is one of the most powerful tools we have for changing how we feel, think and respond. I blend a wide range of breathwork modalities, functional breathing and nervous system regulation techniques.
The key is using the right breath for the right outcome. Together, we choose the approach that best fits what you need on the day, for example:
Calming and grounding the nervous system
Managing anxiety and overwhelm
Supporting sleep and recovery
Building resilience, energy and focus
Emotional release and deeper inner work
Sessions are always held in a safe, trauma-sensitive way, with time to integrate afterwards so you feel supported and steady, not “blown open”.
Available 1:1 or in small groups. I also offer regular breathwork journeys at the Soul Spa.
Cold Water, Mind-Body Resilience & Embodiment
As a certified Wim Hof Method instructor and former British Army Physical Training Instructor, I specialise in helping people build courageous, compassionate relationships with themselves through the body.
Where appropriate, we may weave in:
Gentle cold exposure education and preparation
Breath-led mindset techniques for stepping out of your comfort zone
Practical tools for meeting stress with more steadiness and choice
This is never about pushing you beyond your limits. It is about learning to trust your body, understand your nervous system and discover how capable you truly are.
Music, Meditation & Guided Journeys
Alongside my coaching and breathwork, I write and record original music and guided meditations designed to support you between sessions. These pieces weave together breath, words and sound to help you:
Drop into deep rest
Connect with your heart and intuition
Remember who you are beneath the noise of everyday life
Many clients describe this as having a “thread” back to themselves they can pick up whenever life feels overwhelming.
