About

Are you sick and tired of being more than one person? Do you really want to show up as yourself in all your relationships and stop hiding the parts of you which you’re afraid will not curry favour?

Why would you want to?

It’s exhausting to remember who to be with whom.
When you let something slip in the wrong context, you shrink back inside yourself
You want to be yourself, once and for all.
You’ve changed from the person you once were, you want to own the change
You want to stop playing the adult game of hide and seek (blog post)

Being yourself can be simple, it just asks you to be truthful. Truthful about what you want in life, who you want in your life, what you want to start, what you want to stop and how you want to show up.

It needs you to choose. Choose to love who you are, not who you think you should be. It all starts with you. And it starts where you are right now and grows.

About Me!

Jackie Walker Photo [Enters stage left] …. Hello! my name is Jackie Walker, and I’m a recovering not loving myself person. I believe it’s a job which requires my full attention and I know it might never be fully done, yet every step brings me closer and closer to a life of peace, understanding and love. A love so deep in my heart that almost nothing can take it away now.

I am divorced, single, and live with my 78 year old Mother. I have two teenage daughters I love from afar, an ex I’m still exploring ways to communicate with, and I’ve decluttered! I’ve reinvented myself a few times and now am living as close to my truth and heart as is possible in this moment. I’ve learned lessons I wouldn’t wish on others, and from those experiences can share that you and your life are not what you think they are. You/it, is more, much more.

I’ve been interviewed in the UK press, BBC radio stations and am a contributor to Scottish Woman Magazine. In 2012, I start work as the retained coach for Bad Pony Media‘s All Dolled Up digital TV programme. I spoke at a TEDx Women conference in Edinburgh on The Relationships Ties which Bind Us. I write regularly for Birds on the Blog.

Some History!

I live in Scotland and was brought up on a wee farm on an island off the west coast
I closed my heart about the age of 10 when I went to boarding school, then was sexually abused, and found I could only create disastrous relationships through my teens and twenties.
In my 30′s I was married with two gorgeous daughters, a huge house with a beautiful garden, two cars, two dogs, I felt I had no earthly right to be miserable, but I was.
My husband told me I was unloveable, he was right (at the time).
My 40′s were spent finding out how to change that after we separated.
I was one of the first divorce coaches in the UK
Thanks to my divorce, I realised it, and relationship breakdown, were simply symptoms

Now in my 50′s, I recognise and fully ‘get’ that THE one relationship which determines the success of all others, is the one with yourself. When you love yourself, you can love others and your world.

That’s what I do. And I would love you to know it sooner rather than later! I support you in the process of learning to love yourself, warts, wrinkles, shame, fear, guilt, hurt and all else that shows up!

What you will get from Loving Yourself

More choice
Honest relationships
Trust and love
A strength borne from your vulnerability to be seen as you
Relief from pretending to be who you aren’t
Ability to take responsibility for yourself

I don’t know you, yet, but if you’re here, you’re likely to be

A strong, independent woman used to taking responsibility
Someone who is tired of always being on high alert and wants to let go of the reins
A woman who has had relationship issues with her partner or family
Someone who has felt controlled and/or suffocated in their relationships
A woman who doesn’t see what others see in her
Someone afraid to open their heart in case it gets broken again
Suffering aches, pains and ill health
Have you lost everything you held dear and don’t know how to get going again?

I publish 3 posts a week (Monday’s Video, Wednesday’s Being Me Interview and Friday’s Pertinent Post) and a weekly email ‘Deeper Connection’ goes out to subscribers on Thursday with post round ups and an indepth article. Sign up here to make sure of getting the most from our relationship.

How do I do it?

I work with a special and unique blend of what my clients call Jackie magic! It comes from my heart and draws from

NLP/Hypnotherapy/Timeline Therapy – I’m a Master Practitioner trained to Trainer level
Coaching – certified coach and I’ve completed various coaching programmes
Energy work – Reiki II, Huna, Crystals, Love
Experience – mine, and my clients
Humour – there’s no better medicine
And most of all … My training with the Cube of Karma infuses everything with a special something.

The way I work

Is quite possibly not what you’d expect! It’s very simple, and it’s deep, but you might not notice that, as we’ll just have a wee chat! One client calls it Corkscrew Therapy – you’re held safe, drilled into, and out pops the cork to let the fine wine flow! Read what other clients say here.

There is nothing you can say which will shock me, I am completely and utterly non judgemental. There is no blame attached to anyone, or anything, you will soon be free of it too and find yourself in a place of forgiveness, of yourself, others and situations.

I work by phone and Skype, so you can be anywhere in the world and still work with me, I love technology! I run 3 guided programmes each year in February, May and September and there are self directed options to choose from delivered by email.

What you do next

You can choose how you want to get in touch – by email, or phone – 07957 307652. There’s no charge to have a wee chat to see if I can support you in moving forward. And remember to subscribe for the weekly email, that’s always full of goodies
