About Us

We are life philosophers, truth seekers, facilitators of joie de vivre! We promote emotional gravity. We are lovers of knowledge, truth and purposeful living. We are mothers of teenage daughters. We have little interest in swimming in the shallow end of life. Nor do we prescribe. We are unconventional – no quick fix, no step by step, no lies. We are explorers who will stay your course with you until a shift happens. We are motivators, momentum builders. We passionately advocate second runs at life. We believe in the magic of the sexy and the soulful.

Why We Made The Life Shop Our Life’s Work?

Divorce. Death of a loved one. Being given up for a younger (much much younger, seriously  younger) woman.  Crying on the kitchen floor in the arms of single motherhood. Losing ourselves in a dark night. Finding ourselves in bed with a shaky, new beginning. Living an examined life in search of meaning. Reeling from the loss of love that stays for the birth of intimacy and the loss of love that barely rustles the sheets.  Living on from everything from champagne problems to turning the titanic around in our bathtubs.

Personally and professionally speaking we’ve come to know loss and everything that it delivers to our self worth, identity and hearts. It’s been a life project to understand what it really means to let go and how in the world we actually live on!

Our Style

We believe firmly, teach enthusiastically, and live passionately.  We will help you set out into your new life equipped with skills that will enable you to show up in your relationships (of all kinds) honestly and in line with your values and beliefs. So never again will you find yourself oppressed,  dismissed, irrelevant, invisible, hollow and fallen apart.

We aspire to help women grow into strong, clear, authentic beings with capacity for living life  wholeheartedly, unapologetically, and with great capacity for true closeness and connection (and with passion – don’t you worry it’s still in you!).

We fully embrace our womanhood without howling at the moon and the only brew we make is a double espresso.
