Get back on track with a personal 1:1 coaching plan with Stephen Ellerker

Transform yourself from feeling stuck, trapped with a sense of loss to feelings of satisfaction, joy and direction.

Are you feeling stuck in life and not sure how to move forward? Do you feel like you're going through the motions and not living your life on purpose?

Without purpose, what's the point of getting up every day? Life can't just be about growing up, getting a job, taking a few vacations, retiring and dying. Can it?

Is that why we're here on earth? I believe we are each here for our unique purpose, which frankly is up to us to discover.

If you're asking questions like, “Who am I?”, “Where do I belong?”, “Where do I feel fulfilled?” Is doing it alone with self-help books and online courses working? Sometimes we need some gentle guidance to determine our true path, and create the life we desire. My clients value having a supportive coach on their side who they can rely on regularly for guidance.

Don't waste time stumbling through your mid life. Create aims that get you up in the morning and get meaning to your life again.

About me

As a certified life coach, I work with clients to navigate the early to late midlife years. To offer support, guidance and tools to overcome ongoing low feelings, a sense of loss and lacking direction and confidence.

I believe it's important to have purpose and direction in life. I have seen my own life punctuated by feeling lost, with loneliness, emptiness and despair. A life that lacked meaning.

In the past I’ve hidden my lack of direction with over eating, over drinking and relationship dramas.

Through coaching my own personal development has seen major improvements in my well being and identifying meaningful purpose to my life.

“Your life is a reflection of your thoughts. If you change your thinking, you change your life.”

— Brian Tracy

My Story

I have had a long career as an optometrist and a self employed businessman. Following a challenging divorce in my early forties, I took up a second career as a Counsellor and Psychotherapist. I initially trained as a counsellor at Keele University, followed by a Masters degree in Transactional Analysis Psychotherapy at the Berne Institute.

After a short period of retirement, I decided to train as a Life Coach. It wasn't until I experienced life coaching, and life coaching training that I was fully able to put important pieces of my life fully together, and discover both who I am, and my life purpose. I realised coaching had given me my “road map” of discovery, as well as a “manual” for positive living.

My life purpose has been discovering a strong sense of identity, clearer boundaries and a commitment to self nurturing. To use my coach training, my psychotherapy training and life experience to ‘give back’, and build a worthwhile career I feel passionate about.

Having been abandoned to a children's home at age three, and then to boarding school at the age of seven, I understand how I'd missed out on the nurturing that would have enabled me to fully develop. I believe we never completely lose ourselves, but instead uncover the self identity that was always there. An identity shrouded by years of unhelpful negative and untrue programming. Now, I understand how I can nurture my own persona with clarity, kindness and a loving and wholesome relationship with myself that began with refusing to abandon my inner child.

I have the qualifications, experience and life experience. If my story resonates with you, then let me take you on a journey of discovery, and introduce you to your future self by starting with a free discovery session.

I believe each of us has a unique and personal life purpose. Make your life purpose, your contribution to a life that feels fully alive.
