ABOUT ME
Hi, I'm Alexa
You don't have to feel ready before you start (I didn't either).
As the mindset coach behind Unfolding Adventures, I help women who feel stuck between the life they’re currently living and the life they want to be living.
Maybe you know this feeling too.
You keep thinking about making a change, but can’t quite bring yourself to do it. You know you want something different, yet you’re waiting for the certainty that will make it feel safe.
“What if I regret it?” “What if it doesn’t work out?
What if people think I’m making a mistake?
I know that feeling because I’ve lived it myself.
I don't have it all figured out, and I've stopped waiting until I do.
I graduated with a Biomedical Science degree in 2020 with no clear idea what I actually wanted to do next.
I knew I loved travel. I knew I wanted something different. But I also felt the pressure to have a solid plan, a “proper” career, and had the quiet fear that wanting something different somehow meant I was failing.
For a long time I stayed stuck in that in-between.
Overthinking, comparing, telling myself I’d move when I felt more ready or more certain.
And somewhere along the way, I realised that waiting for that feeling of certainty wasn’t actually getting me anywhere.
So I decided to act before I felt ready (scary I know!)
In 2025, my partner and I took the leap and spent four months travelling through Asia (7 countries in total!). And let me tell you, booking that first flight was scary, even with all the mindset work I’d done.
I didn’t know how it was going to turn out. I just knew I had to take that first step and see how it unfolded, because if I didn’t do it then, I’d be stuck where it felt safe; waiting.
You often have to take the step before you feel the way you thought you needed to in order to take the step.
Now I’m less focused on waiting until I feel fully ready, and more focused on taking the next aligned step, even when the bigger picture isn’t clear yet and it feels uncertain.
WHY I COACH
Turning my experience into something I can share.
This journey has led me to become a certified strategic life coach and EFT practitioner.
I now help women look beneath the surface of what’s keeping them stuck – the beliefs, fears and patterns that influence how you think, feel and act – and help them get unstuck.
I’m early in offering this work, and I bring both my professional training and my own lived experience of going from completely stuck to moving forward again through my own mindset work and action.
This isn’t about having it all mapped out in a crisp ten year plan. It’s about learning to trust the pull of what you want, and building the capacity to move with it, one real step at a time.
THE BRAND
Why Unfolding Adventures?
I don’t believe life needs to be completely planned out before you begin.
An adventure unfolds as you go.
You make a decision, take a step and see what happens.
That’s how my own journey has unfolded, and it’s what I want to help other women experience too.
Your adventure might involve travelling somewhere you’ve always wanted to go, changing careers, starting a business, leaving something behind, pursuing something you’ve been putting off, or simply making a decision you’ve been stuck on for months.
