How life coaching helped me rebuild my life after heartbreak

How life coaching helped me rebuild my life after heartbreak

In 2018, my nine-year relationship ended just weeks before our wedding.

I then found out my ex had been having an affair.

I lost the future I had planned, my family unit, my income and the career I had built around him. I experienced a breakdown and was left with around £15,000 of debt.

From the outside, I looked as though I was coping.

I went out, drank, trained for half marathons and dated younger, unsuitable and emotionally unavailable men. Sometimes all three in one convenient package.

But looking as though you are coping is not the same as healing.

My life looked fine from the outside, but my self-worth was on the floor.

Then I made the decision to work with a life coach for six months.

My coach didn’t rescue me or tell me what to do. She helped me stop waiting for somebody else to rescue me.

Today, my life looks completely different.

In this episode, I explain how coaching helped me challenge the beliefs I had mistaken for facts, change my relationship patterns and create a new vision for my future.
