What if a year from now, you woke up feeling genuinely excited about your life?

IMAGINE it: no more running on empty, no more feeling like a stranger in your own story. Instead, you feel alive, clear-headed, and authentically you.

That’s what this is all about. 1-2-1 Joy Reclamation Coaching is a year-long, deeply supportive coaching experience designed to help you create lasting transformation from the inside out. It’s a journey where you are the priority for once and where all the parts of you that have been yearning for more finally get the attention, love, and direction they deserve.

This feels like me, what’s next

Caution: This program is NOT for you if you’re looking for quick fixes or surface-level changes. Reclamation Coaching is for women who are ready to dive deep, face the hard truths, and make real, lasting transformations in their lives

This year-long coaching partnership is for the woman who’s finished with half-measures and surface-level fixes.

You’ve built a good life. You’ve been capable, reliable, and steady for a long time. From the outside, things look fine. But inside, you know there’s more available to you than what you’re currently living.

Not more doing.
More aliveness.

who is this for?

You are in the right place if…

  • You’re mid-career or beyond, established in your life, and quietly aware that something essential is missing, even if you can’t fully name it yet.

  • You feel a pull to focus on yourself more intentionally now, whether or not you have children, or whether they’re grown, but you’re unsure where to begin.

  • You’re the dependable one. The one people lean on. And while you handle it well, you’re tired of always being the strong one.

  • You value depth and honesty, and you’re allergic to fluff, hype, or forced positivity.

  • You want real change that lasts, not another short burst of insight that fades when life gets busy.

  • You’re ready to be in a relationship with your own life again, one that feels joyful, spacious, and genuinely yours.

  • You want to have improved relationships and connections with those around you.

This work isn’t about reinventing yourself.
It’s about coming back to who you already are, with more choice, clarity, and presence.

I’m ready to explore working together

This program isn’t for you if…

This work is not for everyone, and that’s intentional.

This probably isn’t the right fit if:

  • You’re looking for a quick fix, a motivational boost, or someone to tell you exactly what to do.

  • You want transformation without reflection, or change without commitment.

  • You’re hoping coaching will rescue you from making difficult choices rather than support you to make them.

  • You’re not willing to slow down enough to notice what’s actually going on in your life.

  • You’re looking for therapy-level clinical support. Coaching can sit alongside therapy, but it isn’t a replacement for it.

  • You want certainty, guarantees, or outcomes promised in advance.

If reading this feels like exhaling.


If you’re recognising yourself between the lines.
If part of you is relieved that this isn’t about pushing harder or becoming someone new.

That’s not accidental.

This work is for women who are done abandoning themselves quietly,
and ready to choose a different way of living.

One that feels steadier.Truer.More alive.

You don’t need convincing.
You just need the right space

PAUSE HERE FOR A MOMENT…

I want to begin
  • Imagine this…

    You wake up feeling calm and clear.
    Not because life is perfect, but because you’re no longer bracing yourself for the day.

    Your first thought isn’t a list of worries or responsibilities.
    It’s a quiet sense of choice about how you want the day to feel.

    You move through your life with more presence.
    You trust yourself to respond, rather than constantly preparing for what might happen.

  • Picture this…

    You’re sitting with friends, or on your own, or doing something ordinary, and you realise you’re actually here.

    Not distracted.
    Not scanning ahead.
    Not holding yourself together.

    You feel lighter, not because everything is easy, but because you’re no longer carrying what isn’t yours.

  • What if…

    You stopped living in “manage and cope” mode, and started making decisions from what feels alive and true for you.

    You make plans because you want to, not because you feel you should.
    You enjoy your life without waiting for permission or the right conditions.

    You trust yourself to handle what comes,
    because you’re no longer abandoning yourself along the way.

  • Imagine…

    You look in the mirror and feel a quiet steadiness.
    Not fixed. Not perfect. Just grounded.

    You know how to protect your energy.
    You know what matters to you.
    You know when to say yes, and when to say no.

    You feel like you again.
    Whole. Present. In your own life.

Introducing

Reclamation 1-2-1

This coaching package is comprehensive. It’s called signature for a reason, you get a high level of support, personalisation, and care. Here’s a breakdown of what’s included and why it matters for you.

In short: You get a coach (hi, that’s me) who is all-in with you for a year, in regular conversations, in intensive VIP immersions, in your back pocket via text, and in careful behind-the-scenes thinking about your growth.

This is as close to having a personal guide as it gets.

You also get:

Unlimited Access to Me: You’ll have direct WhatsApp access with a 72-hour response time, so you’re never left feeling unsupported.

  • Virtually Unlimited Coaching: We will meet regularly (typically every week to start, then we may find a rhythm that suits you, sometimes weekly, sometimes biweekly). These private sessions are where the magic happens, we’ll dive into whatever is most pressing or profound for you at that time. Some days you might come with a big goal to strategise; other days you might need to unpack heavy emotions or navigate a tough decision. I’ve got you, either way. Every session ends with clear next steps or reflections to carry into your life. (Imagine having a safe space just to focus on YOU, your feelings, your ideas, your growth. How often have you given yourself that gift?) Either online or in person at Ruddington Wellness centre.

  • Goal Mapping and Regular Reviews: Plus 4 goal setting sessions where we dial into what you really desire for the following 90 days, and review what’s working for you.

Four VIP Days: Immersive, transformational days tailored to you and your journey.

Exclusive Meditations and visualisations: Designed to help you reconnect with your joy and energy.

Four Exclusive Focus Journals: Specifically created for this program, to support your reflections, growth, and personal breakthroughs.

  • Personalised Exercises & Resources: Over the year, I’ll be tailoring tools just for you.

I work with a maximum of 10 client in Reclamation 1-2-1 to enable me to provide the highest level of support and create intimacy in the network.

Why a year…

Lasting change doesn’t happen in a single epiphany or a weekend workshop, I believe it happens through consistent, supported effort over time. A year gives us the gift of pace and depth. We’re not cramming your growth into a month or two, we’re allowing it to unfold naturally, with time to integrate each insight and win.

Think about it: over the course of 12 months, you’ll encounter highs, lows, busy seasons, holidays, surprises – real life! And that’s the point. I’ll be by your side through all of it, helping you apply the work to whatever life throws at you.

Got a stressful project at work in spring? We’ll use the tools to keep you grounded and empowered.

Feeling the winter blues next January? We’ll lean into nourishing practices to keep your spark alive.

By the end of our year, you haven’t just learned new habits – you’ve lived a whole year in a new way, with support at every step, so those changes stick with you for the long run.

In a word, this is about commitment. When you commit to yourself for a full year, you’re making a powerful declaration: I matter, and my happiness matters. And I commit to you fully as your coach, you’re not just an appointment on my calendar; you’re someone I’m investing my heart and energy into for the next 12 months. We become a team.

“As 2x Mastercoach of the year, I know what a great coach looks and feels like, so when I tell you that Emma is a great coach, you better believe that she is.

If you have the opportunity to work with Emma I would definitely tell you to do it, you will not regret it.”

What Transformation Can Look Like for You

Everyone’s results will be unique, and I won’t pretend I have a crystal ball. But here are some shifts my clients often experience over the course of our year together. As you read these, picture yourself in these shoes:

  • Reclaiming Your Energy: Instead of waking up dreading the day or feeling like you’re 100 years old, you might find yourself bouncing out of bed (at least on most days) with a sense of purpose. You’ll learn what truly energises you (and what drains you) and reorganise your life around those insights. Bye-bye constant exhaustion, hello sustainable energy and better boundaries.

  • Confidence in Decision-Making: No more agonising for days over every choice or constantly deferring to others’ needs. You’ll cultivate a stronger connection to your own intuition and desires. By the end of the program, many of my clients make a big life decision they’d been avoiding from changing careers to ending or rekindling a relationship, to moving house or starting that side business. The difference is, they make the decision with clarity and confidence, not from a place of fear or “I should.”

  • Joy and Playfulness: Sounds almost trivial, but gosh, it’s not you will laugh more, sing more, dance in the kitchen more. One client told me, “I blast music and dance while cooking now – I haven’t done that in 20 years!” That might seem small, but it’s a huge sign of a woman coming back to life. You’ll rediscover what makes you happy for no other reason than it does. Maybe you’ll pick up that guitar gathering dust, or plan a girls’ weekend just because, or start taking Friday afternoons off work to go on hiking adventures. Joy stops feeling like a distant memory and becomes a part of your daily life.

  • Better Relationships (Without Losing Yourself): Whether it’s with your partner, friends, or family, doing this inner work has a beautiful ripple effect. As you establish healthier boundaries and communicate more honestly, you’ll notice your relationships shift. Clients have reported their marriages improving because they finally say what they need, or friendships deepening because they’re showing up more authentically (and attracting more authentic people, too). If you’ve been caring for a loved one (like an ill parent or partner), we’ll also focus on how you can support them without pouring from an empty cup. You’ll learn it’s not only okay to take care of you it actually makes you a more present and loving supporter for them.

  • A Sense of Agency and Freedom: This might be the most important one. You’ll stop living on autopilot, going through the motions of a life built on “shoulds.” Instead, you’ll start making deliberate choices that align with who you truly are. That could mean finally saying no to things (without the world ending, imagine that!), or it could mean saying a big brave yes to something you really want. As one woman put it, “I feel like I’m in the driver’s seat of my own life again.” That’s huge.

  • Feeling Like “You” Again but an Even Truer You: Perhaps the best way to describe the transformation is this: you come home to yourself. The women I coach often say towards the end, “I feel like me. A new me, or maybe the me I was always meant to be.” It’s hard to put into words until you experience it. But if you’ve ever looked in the mirror and not recognised the tired, joyless face looking back, imagine looking and seeing a spark in your eyes again, knowing exactly who you are and feeling proud of her. That’s what I want for you.

And so much more…

This EXACTLY what I want

Here’s what others are saying…

  • Karolina

    Working with Emma was a revelation. She possesses a rare blend of profound empathy and incisive skill that cuts straight to the heart of the matter. In just one session, she deployed a powerful technique that fundamentally reframed my relationship with money. Let's be clear: this is an investment. But it is an investment in yourself, and that is the most critical and lasting investment you will ever make.

    Los of love,

    Karolina 

  • Emma J

    Emma is an intuitive, gentle and powerful coach. She creates such a
    sense of safety and containment, which allowed me to access and
    release some difficult emotions in our sessions together. I loved the
    clarity, lightness and sense of feeling of being held that I left with
    after my sessions with Emma. Thank you so much, Emma!

  • Gen

    Emma is a powerful transformational coach who is skilled at listening and connecting me to my own goals, dreams and aspirations. Emma holds an extremely safe space where I can share vulnerably and I have benefitted enormously from Emma’s intuition and wisdom as she works with me to identify my limiting beliefs, all in a very loving, supportive and calm way.

    Being coached by Emma has been a privilege and her passion is clear for her work to help bring about expansive change for her clients. Emma takes the time to celebrate my progress and identifies where there are thought patterns and long-held beliefs that aren’t serving me, which has led to moments of true insight and growth. Thank you Emma!

  • Amanda

    Emma is… a brilliant life coach! She’s personable, i felt I could talk to her about any aspect of my life and never felt judged. She was always understanding of situations and asked thoughtful & poised questions that made me consider and draw my own conclusions. Thus giving me confidence in myself to reach the right decisions for me.

    I trusted her and that feel she would be to coach on anything trivial or major subjects.

    My biggest wins were… learning to draw on the positives of situations I’ve been in. I have focused in on the negatives a lot over the years which have manifested into general unhappiness and lack of confidence in my abilities.

    I feel that a new attitude towards day to day situations will help me fulfil my new found vision.

    Working with Emma is perfect for anyone Who wants to seek purpose, turn a situation around or simply change their mindset.

    So if you’re one of these people I would encourage you to use Emma Woodford’s services!

  • RBK

    My biggest wins working with Emma were:

    1) Feeling empowered to make positive changes in my life to benefit and prioritise my family

    2) Feeling like, for first time in what seems like forever, that I may be able to regain some form of work life balance, and that’s actually allowed!

    3) Enabling me to realise the things that cause me the most stress and identifying solutions to try to reduce them

    4) Remembering that when I’m asked to do something that there is a reason and therefore I should have more confidence in my ability & contribution.

    Thank you for asking all the right questions & listening to my waffle to help me get to the answers. A truly brilliant coach and I would recommend Emma to anyone who was willing to be open and honest enough with her to get her maximum potential and positively impact your life.

  • Zoe A

    Emma provided a space where I felt held and grounded. Emma has a
    really a beautiful, calm grounding energy that is also really
    powerful, I felt really safe in her presence and I felt powerfully held.
    Emma made beautiful observations that that had it considered
    before and created that balance between holding me in a way that
    felt comfortable while also challenging my beliefs and bringing into
    a different kind of power.

I’ve been there…

It wasn’t until I invested in myself and discovered the power of coaching that everything started to turn around. With the right support, I learned how to set boundaries, prioritise what really mattered, and find joy again in my everyday life. It was like waking up from a long, dull sleep. I started feeling like me again… energised, purposeful, and genuinely happy.

And that’s why I created this for you. Because no one ever teaches us professional, capable women how to take care of ourselves. We’re taught to hustle at work, care for friends or family, but not how to nurture our own happiness and fulfilment.

I want you to know I truly understand what you’re feeling. A few years ago, I was exactly where you are now. On the outside I was ticking all the boxes thriving in a corporate career, but inside, I felt empty and exhausted. I remember coming home from work, day after day, utterly drained, and thinking, “There’s got to be more to life than this.”

In my case, life threw an extra curveball a loved one I cared about was struggling with mental health, and I poured all my energy into supporting them. I gave so much of myself to my job and others that I had nothing left for me. I was running on empty, losing my joy and sense of self, and I didn’t know how to break the cycle.

The real problem? I had been neglecting my own well-being for far too long. I thought if I just tried harder…or if circumstances would magically change, then I’d be ok. (Spoiler: I was wrong.) The truth hit me: you can’t pour from an empty cup. If nothing changes, nothing changes.

Guess what? You deserve to feel amazing. You deserve to love your life, not just endure it. And you don’t have to wait for some “perfect moment” or drastic change. You can start now with small steps that make a huge difference.
