About Caroline
Midlife Therapeutic Coach
Welcome!
I'm so glad you're here.
I help midlife women live a brave, heart-led life, with less striving and more soul.
I know midlife can be a lot.
The roles. The expectations. The changes. The responsibilities.
I get it. I’m walking this path too.
I don't have it all figured out (that'd be a bit wild wouldn't it?!) but what I have to offer is a blend of professional experience, lived wisdom, and a framework for creating change.
My Story
For so long, I was the good girl. The helpful one. The one who put everyone first. It was really all I knew how to be.
Then midlife arrived quickly, and rather loudly.
This all coincided with a lot of personal and health challenges that came at me in quick succession. I had to dig deep to get through, and within a few years, the life I'd been busy creating was hugely different to where I thought I'd be.
I kept wondering who I was now.
The start of my midlife sent me into therapy, through a spiritual awakening, and deep into inner work.
I had to let go of a lot - dreams and disappointments; unlearn a lot of conditioning; release many of my own and others' expectations of me; repair my relationship with myself; and rebuild from the inside out. It was super messy and painful.
Slowly, as I came back to myself, my capacity to hold and receive shifted. Over time, life began to feel richer, in connections, in my relationships, and in the way money moved through my world. I started to see that the more I came home to myself, the more abundance found its way to me.
That’s the journey I guide women through now.
What I Bring to This Work
I’ve worked in the mental health field since 2014, first as a volunteer, then as a qualified counsellor, an NHS therapist, and now in my own private practice for women.
I love this work. Yet I was ready to expand.
So I deepened my training in therapeutic coaching, EFT, breathwork, meditation, and facilitating women’s circles.
I bring it all together in my SHINE Framework: therapy, coaching, spirituality, energetics and somatic nervous system work.
It helps you understand yourself and then start living as your true self.
A bit more about me
I’m a Virgo. A 2/4 Manifesting Generator. Multi-passionate, occasionally forgetful (perimenopause, I see you).
I live by the seaside. I walk in nature a lot. I'm a yogi. I roller skate 🛼 nowadays and love relearning it in midlife as it's so fun and thrilling at the same time!
I dance at home like no one’s watching. I adore gentle mornings with lots of tea.
I’ve always got several books and podcasts on the go. Go here to get my best book list - no email needed!
I'm embracing slow living, one day at a time, leaning into the woo-woo and life's magic, having fun and living imperfectly.
And yes, even though I love all colours, pink will always be my happiest colour!
Working together
She Can Shine is built on respect, compassion, and the belief that you already carry everything you need inside you.
I’m here to help you access it and to remind you that we’re not meant to do this alone.
You don't need fixing. This is about remembering who you are beneath the roles, expectations and stories, with the support of other women on their own journeys home to themselves.
I believe when we connect, when we’re seen, held, and met with real presence, we can all flourish. From that place, you get to create an abundant life that feels like yours.
If you’re ready to reconnect with yourself and start living from the inside out, I’m here.
Here's to a brave, heart-led midlife, with less striving and more soul.
It’s your time to shine.
