From stuck to strong:
Emotional wisdom for midlife women
I’m Erica, Mind-body coach
I empower midlife women to meet their toughest emotions with compassion and clarity so they can release old wounds and step boldly into the most vibrant chapter of their life.
Midlife can bring profound challenges for women — shifting roles at work and home, strained relationships with partners, parents, or adult children, and sometimes health scares or loss.
When several of these hit at once, it can feel like a midlife collision.
It’s easy to get stuck in anger, sadness or disappointment. You might question your identity, lose your sense of purpose, or feel overwhelmed by confusion, loneliness or anxiety.
But it’s not all downhill from here! Midlife can open up fresh vistas and brighter possibilities.
Yes, transitions can be uncomfortable and messy. But they also invite you to reflect, reimagine and realign.
I’m here to help you move through the tough emotions, support your healing, and guide you toward reclaiming the clarity, confidence and joy you deserve.
Do any of these feel uncomfortably familiar?
‘Why am I still stuck, even after all the work I’ve done?’
You’ve journaled, meditated, maybe even been to therapy — yet old patterns still resurface, you still get triggered, and it's exhausting.
‘I’m drinking too much, eating too much, scrolling too much, relying on prescribed drugs, just zoning out’ Nothing beyond what’s ‘normal’ for women your age and stage, right? But deep down, you know you’re avoiding your real feelings.
‘I’ve spent years being who others needed me to be — now I don’t know what I want.’
You've had so many roles: mother, partner, professional, carer. With space opening up, there's uncertainty — who are you now? — without the constant caring and doing?
‘Sometimes the tiniest thing tips me over the edge — and I don’t know where all the emotion is coming from.’
You know you’re overreacting! Sometimes you even lash out. But you just can’t get a handle on it.
‘I feel invisible — like I’m fading out of the picture.’
In a culture obsessed with youth and productivity, you wonder if your value is shrinking, if people really see you anymore.
‘There’s a quiet ache I can’t name. Like something’s missing, but I don’t know what.’
It’s not quite depression, not quite dissatisfaction — just an emptiness that makes you restless, unfulfilled and unsure what would truly help.
‘Sometimes I grieve the version of me that never got to exist.’
There’s sadness for the dreams you let go of, the risks you didn’t take, the parts of yourself that were put on hold for others.
‘I know I have more life in me… but I can’t seem to find the spark.’
You feel like you’re somehow ready for more! But instead you just feel tired and lost. Like the good bit’s over.
One-on-one coaching
You know the vibrant, mature woman you truly are. But all too often you find yourself triggered and then trapped in negative moods and emotions. And sometimes you act in ways you regret.
The thing is, most of us weren’t taught how to navigate the stormy waters of our own feelings!
The path from our pain to our flourishing lies in developing real skills: learning how to work with our emotions, draw wisdom from them, and lean into new ways of being.
In our coaching sessions, we weave together insights and practices from embodiment, mindful movement, mindfulness and positive psychology. We tap into the intimate feedback loop between your body and mind, using liberating ways to explore your inner world.
You learn to feel deeply, and to shift how you feel. With these skills, you can access fresh ways of feeling, thinking, acting and being.
Together, we tackle your specific challenges head-on, so you see the results you want.
And since the skills you learn generalise across your life, you’ll keep growing long after our sessions end.
Step into your peace, purpose and power as the woman you’re meant to be.
‘I’d never thought about individual coaching in mindfulness and embodiment before, but it’s an extraordinary experience.‘
