Wakeful Journey
My story
From anxiety and PTSD to healing, freedom and purpose: this is the road that led me here.
Hello, I’m Adele, and I’m so glad you’re here
If you’ve been struggling with anxiety, overwhelm or patterns that feel hard to break, I want you to know you’re not alone. I understand how heavy that can feel, because I’ve walked that road too.
From surviving to healing
For much of my life, I lived with anxiety and post-traumatic stress from a very young age. Like many high-achieving women, I coped by overworking, striving for perfection and pushing past my limits. On the outside I seemed capable and driven. On the inside I often felt overwhelmed, exhausted and far from peace.
Over time it showed up as low mood, panic attacks, chronic pain, emotional eating and imposter feelings. Eventually I knew it was time to heal, gently and for real.
The turning point
That search led me to hypnotherapy, and to Rapid Transformational Therapy®. It helped me understand what I’d been carrying with compassion rather than judgement.
Little by little, I began to feel lighter: less fear, less pressure, more room to breathe. Life started to feel more balanced, more joyful, more mine. It didn’t make me someone new. It helped me come home to who I was beneath the fear.
Discovering my purpose
As I healed, I fell in love with the connection between mind, body and heart. I explored NLP, flow-state training, Reiki, somatic and parts work, and yoga. I trained as a clinical hypnotherapist, RTT® therapist and RTC® coach, and I’ve completed more than 800 hours of yoga and Pilates training.
Today I get to walk beside people who feel the way I once did (women, men and couples), which once felt far beyond what I believed was possible.
Choosing courage
One of the most meaningful parts of my journey has been doing things I once thought fear had taken from me. Driving long distances and flying were once big triggers. Learning to fly, and going solo, became my personal declaration that fear no longer got to decide who I could be.
That’s the kind of freedom I wish for everyone I work with.
If you’re ready
Whatever you’ve been through, you deserve support that feels kind and safe. Sessions are online, so you can do this work from the comfort and privacy of your own space. If you’re nearby, we can also meet in person in Salt Rock by arrangement.
If something in my story speaks to you, I’d love to meet you in a free 15-minute chat.
With warmth, Adele
