About Kate
I work with women who feel like they’ve lost themselves somewhere along the way.
In motherhood. In grief. In change. In the quiet moments no one else seems to notice.
My work exists for the in-between places - the ones where identity unravels and something new begins to form, quietly, without a clear map. I hold space for people navigating emotional transitions that don’t always get recognised, let alone named.
Everything I offer - from 1:1 coaching to group programmes and workshops - is grounded in grief and identity theory. It’s shaped not just by research, but by lived experience. This means we don’t rush to “fix” anything. Instead, we slow down, explore what’s been lost, and gently reconnect with what still matters.
The why
By the time I became a mother, I already held a Master’s degree in Death, Religion and Culture. I had studied grief in its many forms - ritual, meaning-making, the psychology of loss.
But nothing prepared me for the grief that came without a death.
Motherhood unraveled me in quiet, subtle ways. It wasn’t dramatic. Just a slow, steady erosion of the version of myself I once recognised. And because no one had died, I didn’t think I was allowed to call it grief.
But it was.
It took time - and the blending of academic knowledge with lived experience - to see that grief doesn’t just come when someone dies. It arrives when we lose our sense of self. When identities shift. When life quietly stops fitting the way it used to.
That realisation changed everything.
And it’s why I do this work now: to offer spaces that name those invisible losses, and support the process of becoming someone new - with honesty, reflection, and deep care.
My approach is slow, honest, and rooted in care. I don’t believe in rushing healing, fixing what isn’t broken, or offering surface-level advice.
Whether we work together through 1:1 coaching, the 6-week self-paced programme, or a workshop, you’ll find:
🌸 Structure without pressure
🌸 Reflection without performance
🌸 Theory grounded in real life
I draw from grief and identity studies, emotional literacy frameworks, and personal experience to help people feel less alone in their questions - and more connected to their unfolding selves.
