What Past Story is Still Shaping How You See Yourself Today?

What Past Story is Still Shaping How You See…

Hi, I’m Vanessa, founder of Ayla Life Performance Coaching.

 

Watch my video to find out more of my inspiration..

My Father passed away when I was 19, just as I began my Materials Science degree, but I felt he had already set me on my path.

For the next 20 years I built a career in materials science and engineering across the UK and Denmark driven by my own determination to prove he was right, and supported by the resilience my mum instilled in me.

Over time, that drive evolved into something deeper,
a desire to help people who feel unhappy, frustrated, drained, or unsure of themselves rediscover confidence and direction.

Because so often, what holds us back is an old “I am” story:

“I am not capable.”
“I am too slow.”
“I am not confident enough.”
“I was never good at maths or art.”

These stories were formed from past emotional experiences,
and without realising it, we still live, think, and behave through them today.

But they are not fixed.
We can retrain our nervous system from the body to brain, rewrite limiting beliefs, and create new patterns that support confidence, clarity, and growth.

I had to do this myself when I changed careers.
I retrained, gaining inner strength to cope with more and rewrote my stories in my brain and stepped into the work I now love.

🌟 What I Do Today

Through Ayla Life Performance, I help professionals:

  • overcome survival-based patterns
    • build confidence for change or progression
    • rewire limiting “I am” stories
    • increase emotional resilience & clarity
    • develop authentic leadership
    • reconnect with purpose and passion

Body first → Brain follows → Performance rises.
This is the Ayla Approach.

💭 Reflection:

What past story might still be shaping how you see yourself today?

If you’d like support to build confidence, clarity, or a new direction,
message me “Interested” and I’ll share a few simple, powerful neural exercises you can begin to shift today.
