Emma Gilmour: An Adventure in Self Love

Present and Sober

15-02-2022 • 1 hr 7 mins

Not only is Emma a beautiful spirit but she is also a qualified counselor, psychotherapist & This Naked Mind coach, living in Melbourne, Australia. Emma worked for 20+ years in corporate marketing and despite looking like she had it all, she was 'running on empty' on the inside using caffeine and booze to keep herself afloat. As she reached her mid-forties, alcohol started to take more than it was giving and so began her long and very messy break-up with booze. Nothing stuck until her eldest asked her to 'stop bringing wine into their bedroom' then it finally landed for her. Emma started the process of rebuilding herself as an adult, with nurturing care. She discovered her values, stopped drinking, and had to create a whole new identity. Kicking the booze to the curb gave Emma a previously unknown level of confidence and personal power to pursue her dreams and become a qualified counselor and coach. Still very much a work in progress, Emma is an Aussie-based peri-menopausal mum of neuro and gender-diverse teens. She loves stand-up paddleboarding, ocean swimming and has recently purchased some gorgeous hot pink roller-skates. The focus of her coaching work is women in midlife curious as to what could open up for them and their families if they took a break from or stopped drinking.
