My Life Journey so far…….
Hi, my name is Karen Mellers. I now live my life not defined by titles or roles, as I no longer attach any worth to them. So, I write this as a human being trying to describe who I am and my journey so far! If any of this resonates with you, I may be the person you choose to walk alongside you for a while. Life is a series of collaborations and we all gravitate towards the other humans that we feel connected to or aligned with, who might help us move closer to our own heart’s desire.
How is life for you right now?
Do you feel overwhelmed, out of control, exhausted, unwell, disappointed, numb. Are you stuck in a routine and everyone and life around you are moving on and changing. Is it feeling harder to keep things the same? Are you frustrated, hurt, angry at how your life has turned out? Are you constantly working to make things better, but it doesn’t get any better? Do you find yourself wishing that others around you, partners, family, government, work colleagues would change, if only they would, then you would be okay? If this resonates with you read on…..
What would you like your life to be like?
Do you wish things could be different for you and want to change but feel afraid of change?
Do you wish you had more energy, better concentration, peace and calm in your nervous system, sleep better, laugh and have fun more?
Do you want to feel fitter, stronger, freer, have more confidence in yourself, trust your intuition, be bold and brave to make decisions and act from your heart to create a life you have dreamed of?
Why have you found yourself here?
You have landed on a webpage written by another human being that has felt all the above and I am writing this just for you today.
I feel you; I witness you and I resonate with you. Your feelings and experiences are real, they make you who you are. They have helped you survive trauma and thrive through adversity.
Think of all the things you have endured, and you are still here, reading this, with a heart’s desire to be different now, to live another way.
I walk alongside you and I will share with you, what someone once shared with me.
You can be different. You can live another way. It is possible. You are strong and some part of your empowered self has brought you to reading this. There is hope and the way to this change is already within you.
You are the change you want to see
The Journey to Wellness with A Fresh Idea
On your journey to wellness with me, you will find fresh ideas of what resources and strengthens you. Your heart will open to all the possibilities for your life, all are there ready for you to make a choice.
I remember the time I thought to myself – enough! Enough of living this life of pain, anxiety, fear and unfulfillment. As soon as I admitted that to myself the people, I needed to guide me and support me, appeared in my life.
I am still on that journey (do we ever stop right?) but I find myself in a place where I feel resourced enough to turn to the next person and offer that same support.

A personalised, co-created Wellness Program, based around life enhancing agreements
My service to you as a wellness coach is not to give you a 5-step plan that is the answer to everything, as I don’t believe a universal one of those exists. My service to you, is to help you unlock what works for you. You are a unique expression of life and only you truly know what depletes your energy and what raises your energy. I know from experience that living a constant busy routine, that has been in play for years, will hide your inner wisdom. Right now, you may not truly know what works for you. You have probably scrolled through social media and are overwhelmed and confused by all the options that claim to have the answer for a healthier, happier life. How many good intentions have you started only to find yourself falling at the first hurdle.
