RELOCATION, REPATRIATION AND LIFE TRANSITIONS COACHING FOR WOMEN
You've held everything together for so long that your own reactions are starting to scare you.
You are snapping when you do not want to, crying when you cannot explain why, and carrying a tension you cannot seem to switch off.
Nothing about you is broken. The real you has not disappeared.
You can feel like yourself again, less braced, clearer about what you want, and able to make decisions without fear, guilt or everybody else’s needs taking over.
You have spent years coping, adapting and putting everyone else first. A move abroad, coming home, a relationship ending, bereavement or another major life change may have brought it to the surface, but what is underneath runs deeper.

TRANSFORMATIONAL & THERAPEUTIC COACHING
EVENT HAVENING
TRAUMA-INFORMED METHODS
NERVOUS SYSTEM RESOLUTION
DOES THIS SOUND FAMILIAR
You packed up your life and got on with it.
Nobody asked how you actually were.
Maybe you moved countries and did everything right, the joining, the exploring, the smiling, and something still does not feel like home. Maybe you came back after years away and expected relief, and found something closer to disorientation. Maybe a relationship ended, or you looked up one day in the middle of a life that looks perfectly reasonable and realised you have no idea who you actually are in it anymore.
"She is fine. She is always fine. She is exhausted from being fine."
You kept coping until coping stopped looking like coping. Maybe now you are snapping over things that normally would not touch you, crying when you cannot explain what set it off, or carrying a tightness you cannot seem to shake. That can be frightening when you are usually the one who keeps everything steady.
Nothing about you is broken. Those reactions are information. Something you have been carrying for a very long time is asking to be noticed.
WHAT BECOMES POSSIBLE
This is what changes when the work goes deep enough.
Not in theory. In the actual fabric of a Tuesday morning, a difficult conversation, a decision you used to spiral around for days.
Right now you wake up already carrying it. Moving through your day managing everyone else's needs, reading the room before you have even taken your coat off, making yourself smaller without even deciding to.
Exhausted in a way that sleep does not fix. Last on your own list for so long you have stopped knowing what you actually want.
AFTER THERAPEUTIC LIFE COACHING
That changes. At root level, in the way it actually holds.
-
You notice guilt without obeying it.
-
You say what you think without spending three days managing how it landed.
-
You walk into a room without immediately reading what everyone else needs from you.
-
You make decisions from clarity rather than fear.
-
The reactions that used to frighten you no longer feel as though they are running the show. You understand what is happening, you have more space around it, and you trust yourself again.
-
You are not a new version of yourself. You are the real one that got buried.
Not fixing something broken. Uncovering something that was always there.
What women say....
"When I first found Loretta I was in bits. My partner had cheated and I was stuck in my head, exhausting myself with it. She gave me the courage to make the changes I was terrified of. Now I am focusing on me again. My kids, my hobbies, my life. She did not just help me get through it. She helped me find myself again."
R.F
"She helped me get things in order, reminded me of my own capabilities, and taught me how to be resilient. She helped me learn to enjoy the busy life that had become overwhelming."
V.B
"I moved abroad thinking the hard part was the logistics. The hard part was not knowing where I fit in and who I was in the new place. Loretta helped me find my footing and how feel like myself again. Not the old version. Something steadier."
M.S
THE APPROACH
Root level work. Not more advice.
Something that actually holds.
Most women who come to me already understand themselves pretty well. They know why they overthink, over function or keep putting themselves last. The problem is that knowing why has not stopped the reaction happening.
This work goes underneath the thinking. We work with the patterns that have become automatic, so you are not just understanding yourself better, you are actually responding differently in the moments that used to take over.
I draw on these approaches depending on what you need, so the work is shaped around you rather than forcing you into one particular method.
PASEDA360 ADVANCED PRACTITIONER
Depth based coaching that works with the beliefs, identity and patterns underneath what is happening now. We look beyond the immediate problem to what has been shaping how you respond, what you tolerate and the choices you make.
EVENT HAVENING
A psychosensory technique used to work with distressing experiences and the emotional responses connected to them. It can help reduce the emotional intensity attached to what has happened, without needing to repeatedly talk through every detail.
LIMITLESS LIGHT THERAPY
A therapeutic approach used to work with earlier experiences and emotional patterns that are still affecting how you feel and respond now. It allows us to work with what is underneath the pattern, including experiences that may be difficult to make sense of through thinking alone.
TRAUMA INFORMED THROUGHOUT
Everything is shaped around you, your pace and what feels appropriate in the moment. Nothing is forced, there is no one size fits all process, and you stay part of every decision about where the work goes.
WHO THIS IS FOR
This is for you if any of this sounds familiar
BEFORE THE MOVE
She is about to relocate
The logistics are in hand. Underneath the planning there is a quiet anxiety she has not said out loud yet about who she will be when she gets there.
RETURNING
She came home and it doesn't feel like home either
She thought returning would feel like relief. Instead she is caught between two versions of herself and neither one feels settled.
ABROAD
She moved but it still doesn't feel like home
You did everything right. Something still feels off. A version of you got left behind somewhere and you're not sure how to find her again.
ANY LIFE TRANSITION
Her life changed in a way she didn't choose
A relationship ending. A bereavement. A new chapter that arrived without warning and left her wondering who she is in it.
What you have in common with every woman I work with is this: you are not in crisis. You are done. Done with pushing through, done with putting yourself last, done with the exhaustion of being the one who holds it all together. You want to stop coping and start choosing. You want to feel, for the first time in a long time, at home in yourself.
HOW DO YOU KNOW IF THIS IS FOR YOU
The women who find me are rarely looking for coaching.
They are looking for someone who gets it.
Are you holding it all together for everyone else while the version of you that knows what she actually wants has gone very quiet?
Are you living somewhere new and still waiting to feel settled, like yourself, like you actually arrived?
Are you back home after years abroad and finding that home doesn't feel like home anymore either?
Are you exhausted in a way that sleep does not fix, because it is not tiredness but the weight of being last on your own list for a very long time?
Are you done? Not in crisis. Just done with carrying on as you are?
If any of that landed, the connection call is the right next step. Not a sales call. A real conversation about where you are and what would actually need to shift.

Certified Paseda360 Advanced Practitioner
Transformational Life Coach
Trained in Event Havening
Therapeutic coach with lived experience.
Worldwide via zoom
In person: Gloucestershire, Herefordshire, Worcestershire
I know what it feels like to hold everyone else together while something in you quietly contracts. To keep showing up, keep managing, keep getting on with it, while a version of yourself gets left behind.
With twenty years of lived experience navigating relocation, repatriation, loss and major life change, I know what I am asking you to trust me with. I have been where you are. That is not a marketing line. It is part of why this work is what it is.
I am Loretta Davie, a life transitions coach for women. I work online with women worldwide and in person across Gloucestershire, Worcestershire and Herefordshire, supporting women through relocation, repatriation, expat life, relationship breakdown, bereavement and the identity loss that can come with major life change.
My work combines Transformational life coaching, Event Havening and Limitless Light Therapy, alongside trauma informed therapeutic coaching. I use different approaches depending on what you need, rather than expecting you to fit yourself into one particular method.
If you are looking for someone who will be honest with you, go beneath the surface with you and help you understand what is really driving the patterns you keep finding yourself in, you are in the right place. The work is warm, direct and purposeful, with honesty over comfort, real change at root level and the understanding that nothing about you is broken.
Sessions are shaped around you and where you actually are. You will not leave with another list of things you should be doing better. The aim is for something to genuinely move, so you can feel less braced, trust yourself more and start making choices that feel like yours again.

IF SOMETHING IS HOLDING YOU BACK
This is probably what it is
The women who need this work most are often the ones who take longest to reach out.
"I do not know if my situation is serious enough."
You do not need to have hit a wall. You just need to be done with carrying on as you are.
"I have tried coaching before and it did not really work."
If it kept things in the thinking brain, that is exactly why it did not hold. This work goes to where the pattern actually lives, not where the understanding is.
"What if I start and it is too much to deal with right now?"
The pace is yours. The connection call is the right place to talk through timing before you commit to anything.
"I feel like I should be able to sort this on my own."
That feeling is the pattern. You do not get a prize for sorting this one alone too.
