Yes You Can Coaching

04/03/2026

It's been 9 years.

9 years since I saw no other option than to not be here.

9 years of often daily fights with myself

9 years of going at 100mph to run from myself basically

But also 9 years of love.

9 years of support

9 years of helping others

9 years of changing my life

9 years of realising just how LUCKY I am to be alive!!

I may have dark thoughts at times. I understand that I will always struggle with the conditions I have.
But I will also do whatever I can to raise awareness that ***de is never the answer.

Life is never hopeless. I promise.

You are needed ❤

A CHALLENGE A DAY

When that "thing" just clicks back into place you know you need to take the opportunity and make it your own.

So, the good old Daily Challenge is back!

Every day in March I will complete, in one go:

10 squats
10 push ups
30 second plank

5 rounds. 45 second break between each.

Do you know how long it takes me?

Less than 10 minutes.

I've made every excuse under the sun for the last few years. Simply because I felt I didn't deserve.

I DO deserve.

And so do you.

Yes You Can!

THIS IS BRILLIANT

It really resonated and made me stop.

Admire.

Think.

Awareness and support can be raised anywhere and everywhere.

Although you may feel alone. You may feel like no-one understands. You may feel shame and a sense of loss. There is ALWAYS someone who understands.

Someone who wants to help.

Because they get it. They've been there.

Well done Andy's Man Club Hartlepool!

THOUGHT OF THE DAY

Why do we think we have to go back to the start? We are not video games.

What is the start anyway?

The start is wherever you are when you make that decision. Whatever it may be for you.

And guess what?

It's your life.

You can, and should, have as many restarts as you need.

No lessons are learnt without mistakes after all!

JANUARY CAN BE A DIFFICULT MONTH

This is a very long post so please feel free to scroll past, but for anyone who may be struggling right now, this is for you.

***TRIGGER WARNING***

I am writing this in the hope that it helps those that may be struggling right now. That are finding January hard. That may be finding life in general nearly impossible. I know I have been.

I am writing this to give hope.

These photos were all taken in a January. My very first Red January. I put my all in that year. Probably too much if I am completely honest. Because when I focused on RED I couldnt focus so much on what was actually going on.

In these photos I am actually very seriously ill. You cant see it though. Because it is my mental health. I am rock bottom here. I spent so much of my days planning how to end my life. I was obsessed with it. The negative thoughts were ruling my life. I was a mess. I was a terrible Mam, a terrible work colleague, a terrible friend. I saw no way out.

I planned it for months. Right down to the very last detail. I knew exactly how it would play out and even better, no one would EVER know what I had done. Because they didnt need the guilt and pain of wondering how they never realised or blaming themselves. When truly, it was all me.

March 2017. The day came. I felt lighter. This was it!! I could finally make things right, finally make people happy.

Yet, it failed! It didnt end!

At first as I was furious. I couldnt even get that right!! I was a disgrace.

But then I broke down. On my amazing best friend. My walls started to crumble and finally I felt an actual release. The words came out loud and they terrified me. Oh my god, what had I actually done?!

From then, talking helped. Antidepressants helped. But finding me ME helped.

It has taken a long long time and a very tough fight, to get to where I am now. Am I "recovered"?

No.

I never will be. I believe I will always have periods of darkness. Though less frequently.

But I will fight! And I will succeed! And I will NEVER let Depression think I am not worthy of the air I breathe.

I will dedicate the rest of my life to helping others realise their worth. Because everyone deserves to be here. Everyone deserves to have someone believe in them.

If you, or someone you know is struggling, please please reach out. It is hard. It is scary but I PROMISE, you ARE worth it.

BACK TO NORMALITY..
. for many of us today.

Back to work.

Back to school.

Christmas seems but a distant memory!

Some may welcome back the structure and routine. Some, like myself, may feel anxious. Despite all our best planning, things can always change. But it's how we adapt to this that makes the difference.

Whatever today may hold for you, remember, Yes You Can!

I WAS GOING TO MAKE PROMISES, BUT..
. although I am planning and preparing to ensure success, I am well aware that life has a habit of throwing up some sudden unexpected events!

And as I am one to hold a grudge against myself for "failing", and that can then maniifest itself into a whole new set of issues, I have changed PROMISES to AIMS.

What terminlogy could you perhaps change, to increase your motivation to change?

FIRST THOUGHT OF 2026

Do you often strive for perfection?

Do you find if you don't hit your level of perceived perfection, you lose motivation?

Yep, same for me!

Have you ever asked yourself why you feel you need to be perfect?

For me, I could never seem to enjoy an achievement, it was simply on to the next big thing.

I've suffered burnout several times, but worse than that was the deep feelings of failure. Of not being good enough.

So I have a plan!

Let's work together. Let's support each through 2026 and focus on presence not perfection.

To show up every day, no matter what.

To understand every day will be different and therefore what we can do will also be different.

Who's with me?
