My Life Reinvented Trailer
An honest insight into life in your 40s, when your life explodes. What could have been my tragic undoing, could just be the making of me. Maybe you've been through something lately or are in it right now- divorce, burnout, menopause symptoms, recently empty nested and you realise that you don't know yourself anymore? Perhaps your life is all good and you just want to listen in to be able to count your blessings!!
Let me tell you a bit more about myself...
I'm a 45 year old woman in the UK, I had a big burnout which coincided with menopause symptoms from hell. After a bit of "hokey cokeying" with work, I left my well paid leadership job in teaching, with nowhere to go and nothing to do.
I took this as my opportunity to sell up and move to Italy. I was living La Dolce Vita until my permit to stay expired and I found myself with no way to go back. This was not how things were supposed to go...
Follow along as my life, hopefully, develops into a beautiful dream life! As we go along, I will be sharing tidbits from my coaching and wellbeing practice that could just help you out too.
