Who Is Rachael Lay?

I am Rachael Lay, and I am a whole hearted believer in love.

Self love, shared love and HOT love!

I do my core values at the start of every year, and at the top of the list is always the same core value.

LOVE

I believe that when we return to love, anything is possible, and we can know ourselves and others with an intimacy that provides the strongest of life’s foundations.

I am passionate about spreading love in this world and helping others come back to a place of connection, intimacy and deep knowing.

I know that we lose ourselves in insecurity. We obscure our truth with fear and self loathing.

I am a Relationship and Sex Coach and a Weight Loss and Body Love Coach and it is my mission to unearth all the love we can muster in this world. Love that is shared with others and love that is purely for yourself.

I work with smart, successful, motivated individuals to create more love in their life. My programs don’t fit every person. They are solutions for clients who know what they want, are willing to do the work to get it, and are ready to have more of the good stuff in life.

Where Did I Come From?

Before I discovered my passion for Coaching, I spent 18 years in the Corporate world, aiming for and reaching goals that created a certain level of success in my life.

I busied myself in the IT industry for 10 of those years, immersing myself in all things technical and strategy.

Then through a series of personal events, I found myself wanting to give back, to return back to my core values, to spread the love.

I wanted to be able to share, give, support and empower others. I wanted to be a part of connecting with others, to help them explore their inner wisdom, to encourage them to unlock their true potential, to be a co-creator of their dreams.

I discovered that I was most passionate when I was working with clients wanting to heal, grow and deepen their relationships, as well as those who were in the process of resolving their relationships with themselves and their bodies through weight loss and developing body confidence.

So I began to explore, discover, train, create, and share.

I have been blessed to discover my passion and I am excited to share with others so that they are supported and empowered in finding their ultimate place in life too.

What Else?

I am a Coach U graduate, a qualified Clinical Hypnotherapist, and an NLP practitioner.

I am honest, but with kindness and respect.

I am passionate about education, learning, expanding minds, discovering new knowledge, exploring new paths. I am an eager student of life.

I am passionate about each of us understanding the power we have inside, to believe in the possibilities we have available to us, to thrive and excel and show up in all our splendor in this life.

I have a healthy mix of academic, business and life experience. I have studied, learned, been promoted, held executive positions, made mistakes, learned from them, loved, been heartbroken, married my soul mate, become a step parent, faced infertility, managed staff, reported to CEOs, lost loved ones, shared in my husband’s recovery from addiction, built, brought and sold houses, survived 4 major earthquakes, studied more, learned more and kept on growing.

I know that life can be challenging, but also that we can keep taking the best from it and flourish with every experience.

Personal

I am married to the man who is my best friend, my soul mate and my strongest supporter. We have raised our marriage out of intense struggles with addiction, infertility, and the loss of 2 desperately wanted babies, into the most committed, honest and authentic relationship either of us have ever experienced.

We are incredibly different in many ways but completely connected on all the right levels. Our individual interests and outlooks compliment the shared life we have created and it all just works.

Because we are willing to keep working at it.

We share our lives with my step son, 2 crazy dogs and a cat that seems to have the right idea with lots of lazing about, sleeping and cuddling.

We live in a beach community, in a home people describe as an exploded bach, and we spend a lot of time in our 1/4 acre garden growing all our own produce or simply enjoying our little slice of paradise on this planet.

I am a voracious reader, I write, I cook, I craft, I garden, I nest, I absorb this world and all it’s intricacies.
