Hey, I’m Carey

…I believe you have everything you need to create a life that feels true to you—I’m here to help you uncover it.

If you're feeling stuck, stretched too thin, or simply ready for a fresh start, I’m to help you reconnect with what truly matters and build a life that feels whole and real.

Life can get chaotic, and it’s all too easy to lose yourself in the noise of it all. That’s why my approach is all about slowing down, tuning in, and focusing on what feels true to you. I’ve spent years studying the mind-body connection, how trauma is held in the body, and the nervous system’s role in our emotional and physical health. These are the things that shape how we react to stress, our self-confidence and how we can heal. My work combines simple, science-backed tools with deep self-inquiry and embodiment practices that reconnect you to yourself in a grounded and compassionate way.

I’ve been there, too—navigating moments when everything felt unbalanced, when it seemed like too much and not enough at the same time. What I’ve learned is that real change happens when you reconnect with yourself, trust your instincts, and take things one step at a time. The heart of my work is supporting you as a whole person—mind, body, and heart.

I also believe creativity is a superpower we all have—whether or not you consider yourself creative. It’s not just about making art (though it can be); it’s about curiosity, problem-solving, and seeing the world from a fresh perspective. Tapping into this part of yourself can bring clarity and energy to everything you do.

If you're ready to find balance, reconnect with your true self, and take meaningful steps forward, I’m here to support you—every step of the way.

COACHING with me

"The privilege of a lifetime is to become who you truly are."

Carl Jung

My Approach:

Drawing on a rich mix of coaching, mindfulness, and creative practices, I’ve developed an approach that’s both grounded and deeply rooted in self-acceptance. I’ve spent years studying yoga and the mind-body connection, as well as exploring posture, movement and embodiment through my studies as a theatre practitioner. This combination of experience has shaped my understanding of how we carry stress, trauma, and how our bodies influence our mental and emotional wellbeing. It’s this knowledge that forms the basis of my work—helping you reconnect with your body, mind, and heart to create lasting, meaningful change.

My approach blends evidence-based strategies with more intuitive, embodied and creative practices—designed to help you unlock clarity, confidence, and transformation that feels true to who you are. There’s no one-size-fits-all solution, but a process that’s flexible and tailored to you. Drawing from Strengths-Based Coaching, Neuro-Linguistic Programming (NLP), Transactional Analysis (TA), and Mindfulness, I integrate powerful tools that deepen self-awareness. It’s all about reconnecting with yourself and uncovering what’s really important, so you can move forward in a way that feels deeply aligned with your authentic self.

Through both my professional training and personal growth, I’ve refined a methodology that leads to real results. It’s a combination of simple tools, thoughtful strategies, and space for deep self-inquiry. This isn’t about quick fixes—it’s about creating change that lasts and helps you live a life that feels whole, purposeful, and true.

I’m here to support you in reconnecting with your true self, rediscovering your strengths, and taking the steps that will guide you towards the life you truly want.

Hi, I’m Carey-Belle, but most people just call me Carey.
I grew up in the Peak District, spent some time in London, and now I’m soaking up the sea air in South Devon with my husband and two kids. I’ve got a love for both city life and the countryside—though right now, I’m leaning a bit more towards the space and fresh breeze of the coast.
One of my favourite reminders comes from Annie Dillard: “How we spend our days is, of course, how we spend our lives.” I try to hold that close, making space for the little moments that really matter—whether that’s minutes on my yoga mat, getting lost in a good book, or sharing a meal with the people I love.
Curiosity is at the heart of everything I do. It fuels my creativity and drives me as a coach. I’m always excited to explore new ideas and dive into different perspectives, and this helps me connect with people in a way that’s personal and authentic. It’s this curiosity that makes coaching such a rewarding experience for me—because it allows me to offer fresh insights and support that truly make a difference.

Some of my values that shape my work…

Compassion

Being kind to yourself is the cornerstone of lasting change. Every step of your journey will be approached with patience and understanding, knowing that real growth comes when we nurture ourselves as we step out of our comfort zone.

Presence

The present moment is where transformation begins. I’ll help you tap into the here and now, so you can make decisions from a place of calm, clarity, and awareness—leaving behind stress and distraction.

Connection

True growth flourishes when we connect deeply—with ourselves and with others. Through honest conversations, we’ll create a space where you can be your most authentic self, free from fear or judgment.

Courage

It takes courage to step into your true self and take bold, decisive action. Together, we’ll navigate your challenges with confidence, knowing that every step forward—no matter how small—is a victory.

Social Media, But Make It Intentional

After taking two years away from social media, I’m returning with a refreshed perspective and clearer boundaries. In that time, I had a baby, moved house, and returned to a job I care deeply about. While I’ve been focusing on real-life connections, I’ve realised that social media is an integral part of the working world—and it can be a place for creativity, connection, and growth.

Overcoming the Fear of Failure: Why It’s Time to Let Go and Move Forward

Fear of failure is one of the biggest roadblocks to personal and professional growth. It can keep us stuck in familiar patterns, avoiding risks and opportunities that could lead to something much greater. The fear is real, but the good news is that it doesn’t have to hold you back. In fact, overcoming the fear of failure is often the first step towards unlocking your potential and making meaningful changes in your life.

How to Identify Burnout Before It Takes Over Your Life: Recognising the early signs and taking steps towards balance.

Burnout doesn’t happen overnight. It creeps in slowly, often unnoticed, until one day you wake up and wonder how you got here. That spark you once had for your work, hobbies, or even just daily life seems dimmed. If this sounds familiar, you're not alone. Burnout affects more people than we think—and it’s more than just feeling tired.

Why Goal-Setting Can Feel Impossible (And How to Break Through)

We’ve all been there—sitting down with the intention of setting goals that will transform our lives, only to feel overwhelmed, stuck, or uncertain where to start. Goal-setting can be a powerful tool for growth and success, but for many people, the process feels impossible. Whether it's the fear of failure, the pressure to be perfect, or the sheer enormity of the task ahead, it's easy to feel paralysed before you even begin.

Navigating Overwhelm: Why Less Can Be More in Your Life and Work.

We’ve all experienced moments (or even long stretches) where life feels like it’s spiralling out of control. Whether it’s work deadlines piling up, personal commitments stretching you thin, or the pressure to do everything perfectly, it’s easy to get overwhelmed. When you're pulled in too many directions, it can feel paralysing, leaving you unsure where to even begin.

But what if the answer isn't doing more, but doing less?

Reconnecting With Your Creativity: How to Break Free from the Pressure to Be Perfect

When we think of creativity, we often picture artists, musicians, or writers—people who thrive on artistic expression. But creativity is so much more than painting a masterpiece or writing a novel. It’s about innovative thinking, problem-solving, and unlocking new possibilities in all areas of life. Whether you’re in business, education, tech, or a creative industry, reconnecting with your creative side can help you think differently, overcome obstacles, and approach challenges with fresh energy.
