My name is Jessica Smith and I am a certified Change Coach. A married mum of two grown up boys, I found my way into coaching after having remarkable and profound change in my own life. After suffering for more than 40 years with anxiety, depression and panic, I ran into this new and exciting paradigm. I saw how powerful this coaching principle is for myself, having tried just about every therapy on the market over the decades.

I had come to believe that I was un-fixable. I believed I was broken and damaged, that anxious and depressed and desperate was who I was. I felt that these problems or illnesses were part of the identity of Jessica. My life had become small, in an attempt to manage the debilitating and paralysing symptoms of anxiety. No matter how small I made my world, I failed to contain the symptoms and I ended up with both a tiny life and crippling anxiety and panic that lasted from morning until morning it seemed. As I would inevitably fall back into these familiar feelings of despair, time after time. I lost hope of ever reclaiming a normal life.

I stumbled across an online course offering a different way of overcoming anxiety and my approach to getting rid of it. I signed up with nothing to lose and this felt like my last chance at freedom. Wow! Did I get more than I bargained for! This attempt to cure my anxiety began a journey that has transformed and invigorated every area of my life. Understanding my human condition and the simple misunderstanding that leads us to suffer, gave me such freedom and reminded me of my resilience. As a shift began, I found myself experiencing joy from things once again. Slowly finding my interest and optimism for the things I used to enjoy and I began laughing a lot more. Life was easier, more hopeful, more fun and less serious or negative and I began to create an exciting and wonderful new life and business for myself. I had a change of mind, a change of perspective that comes from insight. A slow and gentle transformation that when I look back now is quite remarkable.

I trained with Dr Amy Johnson Phd in her Change Coach programme, becoming a fully certified change coach in June 2020. I now work as a coach and community supporter in Amy's hugely successful Little School of Big Change and offer one to one coaching packages for my own clients.

I love horses and have two of my own who have taught me about life, people, healing and the power of nature and instinct. I adore my two cats who have taught me to be more zen. I enjoy yoga, walking in nature and watching independent broadcasting and epic drama series. I love drinking wine and eating good food with my family and friends.

Please reach out with any questions you may have and see for yourself how this simple "nothing to do approach" can bring back the joy and fulfilment in your life.

"Love .... allowing the other to be a legitimate other, is the only emotion that expands intelligence"  Humberto Maturana

I promise not to interrupt you. You will have time and compassion without judgement to express yourself fully. In my experience "being heard" is something we human beings yearn for and that itself can lead to profound change.

I promise that during our work you will see how your natural born design is both brilliant and perfect and that you can trust your mind and your body to always be working to serve you and return you to your natural default of wellbeing.

I will help you to expose your limiting assumptions and beliefs and to see the possibility of living beyond these illusory limitations. All from a deeper understanding of how our experience is really created.

Joining me on this discovery of your own magnificence, will be valuable. I look forward to connecting with you.
