Hi, I’m Rebecca and I’m a coach, teacher, and mentor, a mother to 3, and currently navigating my own grief journey. As a coach, I help people understand, confront, and live alongside their grief, allowing joy and grief to coexist. I know what it feels like to be paralysed by grief, feeling lost and unable to see an end to the pain. I lost my Dad in November 2022, my Step-Dad in Nov 2023, and my friend turned Sister in Law in March 2025. Holistic grief coaching helps you to understand how your grief shows up and how to support yourself so that you can live a life where grief and joy can co-exist. 

The first deep grief I experienced was my Dad in November 2022.  At the time I had 3 very young children and I felt like I was drowning in every aspect of my life when we lost him. My youngest was only 5 months old, my second born had just turned 2years old and my eldest was 3years old and I didn't know how to feel or where to turn. I felt like I was in a parallel universe where the world was moving and I was just a bystander watching life pass me by. I felt guilty for not living and not being as present as I wanted to be for my children and I felt like I didn't truly have time to feel anything as I was so busy keeping my little ones alive. I barely slept, I was going through the motions day to day but I was not living. I wondered if I would ever truly feel joy again. 

My Step-Dad AKA My Mikes was having end of life care in 2023. I was transported back to that deep grief that guzzled me up when my Dad died. Then my Mikes died in November 2023, 3 days before the one year anniversary of my Dad's death. To this day I still can't truly tell you how I was feeling in that moment. I would flit between feeling completely numb, to pure rage to self pity to wanting to live my life so fully, to being too scared to live incase something terrible would happen. 

In March 2025 Rebecca, my colleague, turned, friend, turned sister in law (yes I married my friend's brother) lost her battle with cancer. This hit me hard! It took me straight back to the depth of deep grief and due to her age of 42 it was a harsh reminder that life has no guarantees.

Experiencing grief has changed me and I can categorically say I am not the person I was. My needs, values and identity has completely shifted and part of my own grief journey has ignited a fire in me and has given me even more drive and determination to help and support people through my grief coaching. Life is uncertain but one thing we can be sure of is that we are in control of taking action to make our life the best possible version of life that it can be. I can help you do this through my bespoke holistic grief coaching. Nobody's experience of grief is the same which is why every person I work with will have a different experience as each session is bespoke to you as an individual. If you want specialised, bespoke, holsitic support from someone who gets grief then I'm the coach for you.
