FREEDOM FROM SELF SABOTAGE
The real me
So this is me. The real Natalie. The Natalie that emerged after my own Freedom from Self Sabotage journey.
​
At 27, after a chance meeting with a meditating psychologist, I discovered spirituality, meditation and the unknown! I read soooooo many self help books - my eyes were opened to a whole new way of being. Yoga became a part of my life and it brought me so much peace.
​
At 33 I got divorced and suffered with the 'non understanding' of it all. But beyond my control, it was also a realisation of the person I was becoming. What a wakeup call! More reads and conversations took me down the (good and bad!) rabbit hole of nutrition, health and scrutinising my own thought patterns.
​
When finally, at 42 years old, I began therapy (so very similar to what I coach now) to overcome old plaguing issues. My immense lack of self worth, my healthy eating obsession (whilst drinking alcohol), and my body dysmorphia, to name but a few! You would not have known this to look or speak to me - I have been a successful fitness/yoga teacher for years, looking pretty 'sorted' from the outside.
​
But certain patterns were set on repeat like a bad playlist. Negative voices, repetitive 'put downs', and callings to constantly be a better person. It was truly smothering.
​
My intrinsic, gut reactions to certain situations were crippling at times (although I never let it be seen) and deep down I knew that I could not and did not WANT to continue feeling this way.
​
The therapy I had was quick, AMAZING and life-changing in so many ways and it started a snowball effect of healing and reframing my mindset. I completely gave up alcohol, which for me, turned out to be a MAGNIFICENT journey. (You may not need this - but I did!)
​
However, the most important part of it all was the newfound understanding of my subconscious mind. Learning that this was the key to becoming the person I was meant to be, brought me so much passion and hope, that I knew I wanted to help other women discover this too, to heal their own subconscious minds.
​
I healed truly and deeply and now I KNOW that you can too.
My ethos
Truth and honesty. These are at my core. They make life harder at times because I am so bad at fibbing! But friends, colleagues and clients come to me when they want to see their own truth, delivered kindly, with a balance of wisedom and ongoing support - but always the truth. This gives them clarity, vision, purpose, direction... and so the fog lifts.
I believe people are wonderful, so wonderful that they deserve that. And the wonder in this is, that they then go away and see themselves, their situation, their hopes - with such clarity - even if if it bites a little at the beginning! They can finally begin to make meaningful, lasting change, and not just more attempts.
​
Armed with the truth, we can fully know, and even enjoy, our imperfections. I used to fight mine - thinking I had to work SO thoroughly on everything (us Capricorns are known for our determination!) but now I know there are things worth fighting for, and things that can be left alone.
I help women see how easy it is to get out of their own way, and work out which bits are worth fighting for - and then get about making that change! It is SO easy when you finally see the path - the path your subconscious was hiding from you.
​
I have buckets of empathy and see every angle, facet, edge of the coin. where you have been worn, I see it, where you shine like a gold coin, I see it.
I have spent THOUSANDS of hours listening to women and their amazing lives and I LOVE my work. You are important. Your truth is important. Simple.
