If you are anything like me, having a purpose in life that you can pursue is what gives your day meaning. It inspires you from the moment you get up, through to when you are ready to switch off and have some personal downtime. And the down time is really important too.

But… it is not always easy to work out what that purpose is, how it fits in with who you are, or how you can even get there!

If this is resonating with you in some way, and you are at that point where you want to do something about it, it’s time for us to have a chat!

Reach out today. Let’s see if we can organise something to get you started.

💛 Why I Do This Work

Like many of the women I work with, I’ve wandered, doubted, restarted. I know what it feels like to crave more — and not be sure how to begin again…

I’ve travelled this path in preparation for you. 

Are you ready to join me in a freer, more joyful and meaningful life?

You have what it takes. 

Pillars are essential structures that support us in whatever we are building. 

In the case of our transformative coaching practice, our pillars are the structural changes we make to enable our future selves to live our best lives. And our future selves may not be that far away – it depends on how far you are from the person and life you want to become, as well as how tightly bound we are to our current selves and lifestyle. 

Becoming our truest, fullest self will no doubt involve change – and change is hard, which is why having your coaching guide and accountability partner is so valuable to you. We will be there every step of the way.

Pillar 2 – Joy

Even a life full of meaning can leave us feeling a little empty when we do not also have ways of experiencing Joy in our everyday moments. Joy lights us up and helps us to fully experience life.

Pillar 4 – Releasing

It’s time to start letting go of behaviours and beliefs that no longer serve us, but instead restrict our ability to realise our full potential.

It’s time to release that which no longer serves us.

Pillar 6 – Maintaining

Now is the time to reflect on all that you have achieved so far, and what is and is not working so well for you. This final stage is all about ensuring that your practices and strategies are sustainable and working well for you.

What’s involved?

Over 6 months, we work together – one on one – to discover your future life vision, path and walk with you on your journey to realise your potential and feel your best.

Whilst each experience is unique, we follow a general program aligned with our 6 Pillars for a more fulfilling life:

👑 Private coaching sessions

👑 Sacred space + Resources

👑 Personalised EFT and Meditation

👑Community connection and expert support

👑Tools and practices to help you implement and maintain change

Valued in excess of $5,900

Hi! I’m Tanya. A mum, business owner, coach and so many other roles in life. My life purpose is to help others, just like you, to realise their potential in life and to bring out their best. Discovering my life purpose actually turned out to be the easiest part. Actually bringing that purpose to life has been definitely character building. I’ve taken wrong turns, lost sight of the goal, denied, wandered in circles… you name it, I’ve tried it out.

Now that I’m here, I want to not only fulfil my own purpose, but in doing so help you discover your own!

🐝

I’m a firm believer that each of us has a purpose in life. I also know it can be damn hard working out what that is and even when you do… it can be tricky finding the path that will help you get there.

Our mid-life is a huge transition period for all of us – regardless of menopause symptoms or not. Biologically speaking our brains are shifting out of “Needing to do what it takes to belong” and into what I like to think of as “Making a Difference, My Way”.

It can mean that we get a bit stuck in the gap between what we have done in the past, and our future selves.

You might be asking yourself…

“What is this future self, and how do I get there?”

“What about all the important things I do… I can’t just leave them behind…can I?”

“My family still needs me. I can’t just abandon them for some selfish need for self expression!?!”

“How do I even start?”

I can assure you, it will all be okay.

This isn’t about throwing out the baby with the bathwater (unless you want to). It is about discovering the excitement, the passion,  and the energy that lies within you already.

Sometimes it just about getting unstuck in our minds, and the rest will follow.

Would you like to explore what this might look like and how I might be able to help you?
