My coaching offers a supportive space to explore what’s really happening beneath the surface - so you can understand your reactions, express your needs with confidence, and feel more grounded, confident and at ease.

• You’re self-aware and growth-oriented, but sometimes you spiral into self doubt and question all of your decisions.• You struggle to say what you need without guilt, shutdown, or blowups. This means you sometimes say yes, to things you don't want to do and end up feeling resentful about it.• You’re craving deeper connection with yourself and others. You want to show up as your authentic self, which sounds great in practice but feels scary.• You’ve read the books and listened to the podcasts but despite having that knowledge you struggle to make the changes you want.
If you're experiencing some inner turmoil and are looking for a little clarity maybe this might help...
Emma Ayling Empowerment & Communication Coach
Hi, I’m Emma.I help people to communicate clearly and calmly with empathy using Nonviolent Communication, so they can express their needs without guilt and feel confident in whatever situation they find themselves in.In the words of the great Brené Brown "we can only love others as much as we love ourselves." (If you hate that we might need to talk)My work is grounded in empathy, curiosity, and Nonviolent Communication (NVC). I use science-backed tools and habit-change strategies in my own life, and having seen the difference they make, I now guide clients to create the same results in their lives.Whether you’re struggling to set boundaries, stuck in people-pleasing patterns, or ready to take a break from listening to your inner critic… you're in the right place.This is a space for co-creation. I am the facilitator but you are the expert in your own life.It’s about reconnecting you to the clarity and strength that’s already there.

When you're looking for a coach it's super important to find someone you connect with, and that is different for everyone. Knowing that, I offer you this gift:1 x 60 minute coaching call.In this call we'll meet and see if we're a good fit to work together. You'll have an opportunity to share what's going on in your life and the changes you'd like to make. I will coach you around whatever is coming up.This will be a real coaching call and you'll have an opportunity to see what it's like to work with me.At the end of the call we decide together how we would like to proceed.

Before working with Emma, I often spiraled out of control. I felt overwhelmed and struggled to cope whenever something unpredictable happened. Through our coaching, I learned to check in with my own needs and practice self-care. Now I understand that looking after myself benefits everyone around me—I have more energy for my partner, for myself, and for enjoying fun things outdoors.- Louise

I was surprised at how fast I saw myself changing! I had a new excitement for my life and my own potential that kept growing with each meeting, and I feel like it was markably visible even from an outsiders eye.
My life is completely different. I feel confident and empowered to choose my own path in life, one that may not align with social norms but is true to my values, many of which Emma helped me identify.- Clement
