Elaine Louise Stewart Coach I'm a life, health and Enneagram coach. I work with women in their 50's+ to answer the question, "Who am I at this stage of my life."
(1)

I work with women in their 60's and beyond to live their life by design and not by default. We address life and health issues to let go of the roadblocks that hold us back from living our lives full out!

After years of taking care of everyone else, many women find themselves asking:
Who am I now?

It can feel unsettling, because you've spent so much of your life responding to everyone else's needs that you've forgotten to ask yourself what you want.

This time of life isn't about starting over. It's about making room for yourself again.

In my newest YouTube video:
From Caregiving to Coming Home to Yourself
We explore:
 Why this transition feels so different
 Why including yourself is an important part of healing
 How to begin creating a life that reflects who you are today

If you've ever wondered what comes next, I hope this conversation encourages you.

Have you ever found yourself thinking "Why does this keep happening?"

Different relationship. Different person. The same emotional experience.
Feeling responsible. Trying to fix everything. Walking on eggshells. Second-guessing yourself.

Many of these responses aren't personality flaws. They're familiar patterns that helped us navigate life years ago. The good news? Patterns can be understood.

And what can be understood can begin to change.
In my newest YouTube video:
The Hidden Patterns That Keep Showing Up in Your Relationships
We explore:
• Why familiar patterns repeat
• How awareness creates new choices
• Why healing changes the way we connect with others

If you've ever wondered why the same emotional experiences seem to repeat, I hope you'll join me.

Have you ever felt like personal growth was making you feel worse instead of better?
You're noticing your patterns. You're becoming more aware.

And suddenly it feels like you're seeing all the ways you've been leaving yourself out of your own life.
That can feel discouraging.

But here's what I've learned: Awareness doesn't mean you're failing. It means you're seeing more clearly.

The next step isn't judging yourself. It's meeting yourself with compassion.

In my newest YouTube video, we explore:
Why Personal Growth Sometimes Feels So Discouraging
 Why awareness can feel uncomfortable
 Why growth isn't about fixing yourself
 How self-compassion creates lasting change

If you've ever thought, "I should be further along by now," I hope you'll watch.

Why Small Things Trigger Big Reactions

Many women believe they react because they're emotional. I don't think that's the whole story.

Often we react because our nervous system has learned a pattern. Something happens. A comment. A change in plans. A disagreement.
And before we're even aware of it, we're reacting.
Then later we wonder: "Why did I do that?"

The good news is that awareness creates choice. And choice creates change.

In my newest YouTube video:
Why Small Things Trigger Big Reactions
We explore:
• Why awareness creates choice
• Why regulation precedes response
• How self-trust grows through practice

Your reactions may make more sense than you think.

"I'm just so tired." I hear women say this all the time.
And often they're talking about more than physical exhaustion. They're carrying responsibilities. Worries. Unspoken feelings. Old hurts. Stress. Expectations.
Eventually, all of that takes a toll.

What many women don't realize is that it takes a tremendous amount of energy to suppress emotions and stay disconnected from what they're feeling.

The body still carries it. The nervous system still responds to it. And over time, exhaustion can become the result.

In my newest YouTube video:
Why You Feel Emotionally Exhausted All The Time
I talk about:
• Why emotional suppression drains energy
• How nervous system dysregulation fuels burnout
• How learning to regulate yourself can help restore vitality

Your exhaustion may make more sense than you think.

What if saying "no" isn't the real problem?

For years, I thought the answer was learning better boundaries.
Better communication. Better scripts. Those things can certainly help.

But I eventually realized something much deeper. The women I work with aren't struggling because they don't know how to say no.

They're struggling because they've learned to leave themselves out of the decision before they ever answer. That changes everything. It's why resentment builds. Why we second-guess ourselves.

Why we feel emotionally exhausted. Why we lose touch with who we are.
That's why I created my free No Without Guilt Guide.

It isn't about saying no more often. It's about learning how to include yourself before you say yes...or no. That one small shift can change the way you make every decision.

I'd love for you to download it.

Many women don't trust themselves because they've spent years looking outside themselves for answers. Seeking approval. Trying to make the "right" decision.
Worrying about disappointing someone.

Over time, their own inner voice becomes harder to hear.
The good news is that your inner wisdom doesn't disappear.

It simply gets buried beneath years of conditioning, expectations and noise.

In my newest YouTube video:
How to Reconnect With Your Inner Voice Again

We explore:
-Why self-trust can be rebuilt
-How your inner wisdom gets buried beneath conditioning
-Small practices that can help restore clarity

One of the most important things I've learned is that self-trust isn't built by being perfect. It's built by listening to yourself, one small decision at a time.

I'd love to know: Do you tend to trust your own judgment, or do you find yourself looking to others for answers first?

Many women don't realize they're carrying resentment. They think they're just tired, or overwhelmed, or frustrated.

But resentment often develops when we've spent years putting everyone else's needs ahead of our own. Especially saying yes when we mean no. Taking responsibility for things that don't belong to us.

Ignoring what we need in order to keep everyone else comfortable and eventually something inside begins to push back.

Why? Because you've been disconnected from yourself for too long.

In my newest YouTube video, I'm talking about:

The Hidden Resentment Women Carry for Years
I explore:
-Why resentment is often a signal, not a flaw
-How losing yourself creates the conditions for resentment
-Why reconnecting with yourself creates freedom

If you've ever thought, "I'm tired of holding it all," this video may speak to you.

"I know why I do it... so why do I keep doing it?"

I've heard some version of this from so many women.

And honestly, it's one of the most frustrating parts of personal growth.

You understand your patterns. You know where they came from. You've done the work.

And yet, sometimes you still find yourself reacting the same way. Many women assume this means they're failing. I don't think that's true.

I think it means there's a difference between understanding yourself and staying connected to yourself in the moment when life happens.

That's what I talk about in my newest video:

In it, I explore why insight matters, why it isn't always enough by itself, and what real change often looks like.

The guilt is exhausting. Not necessarily the guilt of doing something wrong.

The guilt of putting yourself first. The guilt of disappointing someone. The guilt of saying no.

Many women have spent so many years taking care of everyone else that saying yes becomes automatic.

And eventually they find themselves feeling:

💛 Exhausted
💛 Resentful
💛 Overwhelmed
💛 Disconnected from what they actually want

The problem isn't that they don't know how to set boundaries. The problem is that they've learned to ignore themselves.

In my newest YouTube video:
🎥 How to Stop Saying Yes When You Mean No

I talk about why this happens and how to begin changing it—one small choice at a time.
