Your current path might just be a little too winding, a little too full of ups and downs and a little too chaotic! 

And you might need some coping strategies to help you build your inner strength and the powerful resilience that lies within you…

Sometimes…just sometimes, boring is beautiful and that’s especially true if you’re a woman over 40+  struggling right here right now with life. 

You might have some kind of adversity or trauma history. 

 

Trauma Symptoms and Women 

 

You might be suffering PTSD symptoms just as many of my professional and non-working clients do.

You might be aware of this or you might not know the things you feel are tied to ptsd or trauma. (If you want to find out more come to our free weekly group for women online )

It doesn’t matter what walk of life you come from. Educated or uneducated, working or no no longer working, retired or just coming into menopause, gay, straight, parent or grandparent, single woman, a woman without children or the matriarch of a large and bustling family!

Trauma symptoms can and do impact women like you and like me, from any walk of life anywhere in the world.

And if you’re in the second phase of life and you’re still suffering from PTSD symptoms, you may have reached desperation and action time. 

Here’s a list of PTSD symptoms that might still be affecting you: 

  • Problems regulating Your emotions 
  • Emotional outbursts
  • Feeling swamped by your feelings
  • Avoidance of people, places or activities or things.
  • Negative changes in thinking and mood - futility, depression, lack of joy.
  • Changes in physical and emotional reactions.
  • High startle response
  • Feeling on edge 
  • Insomnia 
  • Concentration problems
  • Dissociation and feeling detached from yourself and life.
  • Relationship issues (partner, family, children, friends, workplace.) 
  • Changes in self-care. 
  • Guilt and/or shame
  • Extreme emotional swings

And these are just some of the trauma symptoms you could be experiencing that are making your life anything but boring.

And yet that’s what you might crave.

Peace, quiet, calm and sameness.

Have a think…

Consider how it is for you, inside yourself. 

Are you wanting greater stability, peace and equanimity?

And are you at a point where you want a life with fewer emotional swings, less pain and less anxiety, less stress and depression?

If so what can you do?
Do you want to gain greater peace and joy?

You can. There is so much hope. 

You really can.

 

Emotional Resilience and Peace As The New Goal

 

In all honesty, beautiful woman, you’ll need to learn to crawl before you can walk. 

If you still have ptsd symptoms, you will need to learn to regulate your system.

And when I say regulate your system, I mean really regulating your nervous system in practice and not just in theory.

In practice. Learning how to have some agency over it.

An ongoing and supportive HOW TO that keeps you on track.

A lot of the information about this is now out in the public domain and that’s great.

But information is only the first stage. It can only take you so far. You simply cannot read yourself or inform yourself out of trauma symptoms. 

That can help. But it won't solve the issues that require a systemic approach and a profound and empathic attunement and guidance. 

You can read every single wonderful and brilliant book by Gabor Mate, absorb every single video by Bessel Van Der Kolk, read every academic article by Janina Fisher; you can consume every single youtube on emotional regulation and personal growth and change and you can still struggle.

Yes, like these wonderful trailblazers, Camilla Slater Coaching provides you with the information you need. But we do more with our coaching processes and programmes. 

And we do it from the perspective of a real woman who has really committed and done years and years and years of personal work. 

As a lived experience mentor and coach, I’ve come from unbelievably difficult traumatic symptoms to beautiful freedom, love and power. I’ve committed to spiritual growth and have found some financial success.

And I can support you in some short-cutting - and I WILL do all to support you in a very ethical and empathic way without kidding you. 

 And if you want to heal, you'll be committed to doing...

The Beautiful Work. Loving work. Real work. Fun work. 

(And yes…I said FUN!)

You are guided and shifted and moved into actual practice and action to learn about emotional resilience and spiritual and mental peace in one to one private coaching sessions and in The Heroine’s Journey Group Coaching.

And after the chaos of trauma, you can go into a phase for a while where the peace and lessening of symptoms can seem boring.

Be patient. Allow this phase to work itself through. It will and it does. 

And you are supported, reminded, encouraged, inspired, educated and compassionately prompted to CREATE YOUR NEW PATH and make real change and WISE CHANGE that will lead you into a new way of being and doing in your life and your new world.

 

Lived Experience Coaching - The New Approach

 

If you're looking into the online coaching process, you might be desperate for support and an empathic approach that is practical and clear. 

Can you relate?

Have you tried other modalities and approaches? Are you at the stage where you wonder if it will ever change, and if you’ll ever find freedom from symptoms?

Do you hope for a transformation?

It's important to remember too, that each and every modality has its place. The things you've tried in the past have got you to this point. That's great. 

And it’s important to remain harmonious and respectful, welcoming and appreciating the differing therapeutic and medical models that have helped to carve and shape and inform and trail-blaze human transformational strategies over the past 20 years. 

For some however, a greater personal care and connection that also helps you to create you own path, is required.

Lived Experience Coaching offers a very special and beautiful way forward.

Some women who see me use our life coaching and trauma-informed coaching process in conjunction with therapy.

Other women choose to simply work with me.  

There’s no right or wrong and YOU get to carve out the approach that suits you.

What’s important is everything is openly discussed. 

And we move you towards greater peace and internal empowerment, more prowess and fierce, beautiful selfhood.

And when you put the work in, you're supported to gently and beautifully activate substantial change in all areas of YOUR  life. 

Not mine. Yours.

Yes it takes time. Changing your life direction does not happen overnight.

This is why I suggest you work with me for a period of time so we work TOGETHER in the coaching relationship. Your hand will be held. 

The coaching approach from Camilla Slater Coaching weaves in very clear and supported healing that goes beyond usual template approaches. We don't do that.

It’s a very responsive and organic and personalised approach, even in the group programmes such as The Heroine’s Journey Group Coaching programme, where you get to absorb the incredible information and then apply it to your life with ongoing support. 

Then, if you want more guidance you can move into elite and one to one coaching. But that's entirely up to you.

 Some women - particularly if you’re still working professionally - want the full privacy of the one to one online sessions or even elite, personalised retreats where I travel to you or to a destination where you are guided by me intensively to make breakthrough changes.

Whatever your preference you are looked after with empathic, real, lived experience and trauma-informed life coaching for women that is most likely quite different from anything you’ve previously done.

You matter.

Your story matters.

Your history matters

And your present and future matter - perhaps even more than you realise.

 

Your Peace and Inner Strength

 

So, it’s important to know that your trauma symptoms can be playing havoc with your emotional stability and your joie-de-vivre. 

All those ups and downs, all that life upheaval and all that chaos can gradually subside and be worked through.

As a lived experience coach who is trauma-informed and well practised to help you build inner strength, better coping strategies and boundaries-setting, I help you with that and more.  

The life you want can be less fraught, and you finally learn BORING REALLY IS BEAUTIFUL.

 

WHERE TO NOW?
