a little bit of background.  

Who I work with

Mothers who want to stay grounded, prepared and supported during their divorce journey

This course is for women navigating separation or divorce who are used to being strong, capable, and self-reliant — the ones who believe they can “do it all.”

It’s for those who keep going, hold everyone else together, and often don’t realise how much they’re carrying until it starts to unravel.

How to Survive Your Divorce offers grounded, compassionate support to help you stay emotionally and physically steady, so you don’t have to fall apart at the seams to get through this.

  • You simply want some good tools to support what you are already doing

  • You want to hear from someone who has gone before you and can guide you on the traps to look out for.

  • You’re juggling everything alone → overwhelm is real.

  • You crave support, direction, and a safe space to rebuild.

  • You want to feel calm, confident and supported so you can remain (or begin to feel excited) excited about your future.

If any of the above are true for you, then you are in the right place.

Working with me isn’t counselling or therapy - it’s guidance and coaching to stay emotionally and physically strong during the divorce journey.

Being emotionally and physically stable not only helps you to not fall apart, but it also helps you to remain calm and clear when making big life changing decisions that impact you and your children.

At This is me, Chrissy I provide a safe space and tools to help you navigate this period of time with the support you need until you feel ready to step forward with confidence on your own. And sometimes you think you can do it alone and you have it all together, but in reality - sometimes the stronger you appear, the more support you actually need! (I learnt this the hard way).

About me

The short version (for the War & Peace version refer further down this page! you may need a cup of tea and comfy cushion)

First and foremost I’m a woman, and proud of it.

I am a lover of all things nature (ocean, sunsets, sunrises), belly laughs with my besties, finding the light side of life, going bare foot, dancing in the kitchen with my children, long hot showers and singing anywhere.

I chose to be the mother of my two beautiful children (actually, they chose me and I am so thankful!).

My journey from being a corporate gal - to traveling spouse, moving from country to country, city to city while raising my children - to full time solo mother - to starting a business - saw me go from being on top of the world to falling to the depths of despair and back up again into the woman I am today.

My determination to learn how to live authentically, love myself unconditionally, find balance in every area of my life, find joy for life again then share those learnings with my children has led me to want to support other beautiful mothers around the world to survive through their divorce journey and ultimately when it is over have not fallen apart and instead THRIVE post divorce.

My aim is to support mothers in coming out the other side feeling calm and confident, so they can rediscover their joy and love for life — things that often feel missing in action after divorce.

Testimonials

  • "Chrissy’s coaching has given me clarity and an overwhelming sense of confidence I didn’t even know I was missing. If you have that little voice in your head that constantly makes you feel like you’re not good enough, or makes you question what you think or feel, Chrissy’s coaching will help you break free from that negative voice and limiting beliefs. I only wish I did this sooner!"

    Prue Young

  • "Chrissy is one of those people you always want in your corner and you end up getting addicted to. She is a fantastic listener and is able to engage in such ways that after every coaching session I have had with her I have come up with more ideas and more wisdom around what I could be doing next. Chrissy is supportive without ever being intrusive. She is calm, kind and grounded and has such a positive and uplifting energy about her that I would always leave my coaching sessions feeling more positive about my future and my next steps. She manages to instill energy and positivity in all the conversations we’ve had. I have definitely gotten addicted to having her in my corner and I am always looking forward to our coaching sessions together, as I know something new I hadn’t realized before will always pop up."

    Serena Mars

  • "Chrissy is a remarkable coach. She is a really great listener & has the ability to pull out of you what the actual problem is. She is very insightful and has definitely helped me see a few things from a different perspective, which can be life-changing, right! Chrissy brings her fun and energetic personality to every session and I always feel better after a conversation with her than before. I highly recommend Chrissy for life coaching."

THE WAR AND PEACE VERSION FOR THOSE WHO LOVE A GOOD READ!

I have been on top of the world, fallen to the depths of despair and got myself back up again.

I have felt the exhilarating deep connection of love and I’ve gasped for air at the pain of losing that love.  

I have seen the glowing light of a new day and the pitch darkness of a lonely night.

I have experienced the hamster wheel marathon of groundhog day parenting and learnt to surrender in stillness during the toughest challenges thrown my way. 

I have battled the constant chatter and chaos of my mind and learnt to control and be still when it’s all gotten too much. 

I have created wild unrealistic fantasies of my life and I have learnt the balance of life as I’ve been brought back into equilibrium with a jolt on many (many) occasions.

I have felt terrifying fear of the unknown and learnt how to hold space for myself in that fear to embrace with curiosity what new path I’m being guided to.

I have magnificently tried to avoid the reality of where I'm being guided and eventually surrendered only to find that my world became brighter and warmer because of it. 

I have questioned my purpose, challenged the narrative and explored the meaning of life extensively till my head felt like it would explode and I have also said ‘fuck it all’ and forgot the bigger picture for a moment while I danced like a child. 

I have gasped for air as I’ve battled my way through repeated panic attacks before the monotonous school pick up run and I’ve had the energy of an excited puppy with not a care in the world as I've belly laughed with my little ones making funny fart sounds on their bellies.  

I have attempted to carefully control the minute details of my life and those within it thinking that if I manage them and keep them in sight they will have less of a chance of coming true and in doing so I have lived in the places I have worked so intently to avoid. I have also spent some of the darkest hours of my life simply letting go and patiently waiting for the shift to come. 

I have judged, criticised, dictated, preached to others and I’ve held compassion and empathy and seen the vulnerable side of those same people. 

I have dressed myself up layer upon layer with all the worries of the world and I’ve stripped myself bare and run free naked in my front yard with not a care in the world. 

I have explored the world feeling free and returned home feeling more trapped than ever. 

I have looked in the mirror and seen a worn, depleted, helpless divorced mother and then the next day seen a vibrant, youthful, fun, glorious woman ready to fly. 

I have woken with my heart racing dreading the day ahead and I have woken with a peaceful sense of love and peace for the day ahead. 

My home has resembled a display home and a pig’s pen all in the same 24 hours.

I have belly laughed with friends at 9am and been sobbing uncontrollably on the shower floor by 10am.

I have experienced sheer fear at the uncertainty of life beyond this existence and felt exquisite peace in the simple moments of my every day. 

I have sat with my head in my hands not knowing how to address my child’s issue and felt pure joy watching  them resolve their own issue the following day. 

I have had $5 in my bank account and three more days till the next pay and I’ve had the financial freedom to not have a care in the world about finances. 

I have felt like I’m drowning in the deep muggy waters of life and at other times I have felt like a bird gliding across the warm sky. 

I have shamed and I have felt ashamed

I have made decisions that I allowed to rot my soul for way too long and I’ve learnt to love myself enough to act only with the values that are true to me. 

I have braced through the wildest winter storms and I’ve sat still in awe of the sun peacefully setting over the horizon in summer. 

I have read the books, studied the courses, watched the movies, listened to the podcasts and had the conversations. 

I have lived. I have found the balance. 

I am a dedicated, conscious, kind and loving woman and mother to two young beautiful children. I am a traveller, but a homebody. A lover of anything nature, especially the ocean, sunsets and sunrises. I love belly laughing, immersing myself in a good book about the body, mind, parenting or how to continue evolving in this life. I love connecting with friends and family and spending time having fun with my children. I love exploring this beautiful Earth. I love just being me and want to spend my days helping other fabulous women and their beautiful children be themselves and love their life!

And this is me, Chrissy x
