What is passion?

What is passion?

Passion is when you get a glimpse of your true potential.

What is passion?

Do you feel passionate about the work that you do?

I spent years in the field of technology, training and marketing. Although I enjoyed my work, I didn’t feel passionate about it. Looking back now, the part of it I really enjoyed was when I was helping other people learn to use the technology.

I now love being a Health Coach. I love running my cookery classes, meditation classes, pilates classes, Facebook groups on health issues such as gut health and autoimmune issues and running group programs and individual programs with my clients. My passion is watching the change in them and seeing them lead a healthier and happier life.

Passion can be that exciting feeling of having an idea. A lightbulb moment.

What is your passion?

Settle your mind, be still and try to remember a lightbulb moment in your life. Can you remember the excitement you felt throughout the whole process? How did it make you feel? Can you recall the initial passion? Would you be able to instil this in everything you do? If you can, then you cannot fail.

A lightbulb moment of passion and drive can be fleeting. Try to capture it and make sure your light stays on.

My name's Emma. I've been living gluten-free for over 25 years, and I've been dairy-free for over five years.

Health and Auto-immune Diseases

I have auto-immune diseases and expected to be on medicine for the rest of my life, but I didn't want to live like that. My rheumatology Doctor was so supportive of the change I wanted to make, and with their help, I now manage my auto-immune diseases by being strict with my diet.

It can be quite frightening when you first find out you have to change the way you eat but for some of us' Food is our medicine.'

I have several websites, write blogs, and I'm currently in the process of writing a book.

I trained to be Holistic Health Coach, Meditation and Mindfulness Teacher and Certified Gluten Free Practitioner in order to heal myself, my family and others who find themselves on the same journey as myself.

Photography

Our love for photography started on our travels. We wanted to capture images of the areas we travelled to both for our own records and for our family back at home. Some of these images were reproduced as watercolours. Our favourite images we display at home and friends often asked where we had purchased the pictures! Now you can purchase them online directly from us.

Coaching and Consultancy

Previously an IT Manager my skill set has come in very handy as I am both a Health Coach and also offer consultancy for small business starts up and fellow Health Coaches. This has included building websites and online profiles.

Our Family

Family is everything to me! We have a family of four boys where the age difference between the youngest and the eldest is 18 years. Two of our sons are also Gluten Free and Dairy Free. Emma is a Health Coach who specialises in helping individuals and families achieve their health and wellness goals. Ian runs his own business which began developing a Race Timer for diecast model cars.
