Who is Rachael Hughes Edwards

Hello, I’m Rachael, a Personal Development coach, NLP Practitioner, Clinical Hypnotherapist, and Manifestation Coach. 

​

I have been exactly where you are right now, overwhelmed with depression and anxiety, and feeling like I wanted to give up! Because ultimately, the pain of life was too much. Maybe like me, you’ve struggled with your mental health since you were a child and never found a safe space to express how you truly felt. 

 

Depression and anxiety have always been intertwined for me. As a child, I denied myself happiness because it seemed fleeting, always overshadowed by impending negativity. Feeling happy was so unfamiliar that it triggered discomfort, amplifying my anxiety. 

 

I would sabotage myself to get back to feeling that I was used to, which was depression. (How would you sabotage yourself?)

 

As I grew up my dark thoughts about myself and my life were never ending. It felt like my mind paralysed me and stopped me from overcoming the struggles I was facing daily. 

 

Within my twenties, I had two mental breakdowns. First, the loss of my grandma shattered me and then I was working in a demanding job in a suffocating city, coupled with my marriage that was in the toilet. My life at that time became unbearable. It felt like no one could grasp the depth of my pain. I was utterly lost, drowned in relentless thoughts and emotions. I yearned for an escape, desperate for a solution to this overwhelming despair. 

 

And like so many of us, I thought medication was the answer to my mental pain. 

 

I spent years trying everything to get help, but I was always led back to one thing: medication. I felt like I gave every pill a shot. I just wanted one little tablet to swoop in, wipe out all the pain, and magically fix everything. Month after month, I begged my doctor to up the dosage, hoping it would ease the ache. But instead of feeling more alive, I felt like a ghost of myself.

 

My turning point hit hard when my hearing faded and my vision blurred. I wasn't in pain anymore, but I wasn't living either. I felt like a shell, a zombie drifting through life. 

 

I discovered feeling nothing was even worse than feeling everything!

 

That's when I knew it was time for me to take charge. Over a few years, I weaned off the meds. But I needed more than just pills—I needed to strengthen my mind. I found support from people who understood and showed me I wasn't crazy, just struggling. With coaches, therapists, and healers, I worked on reshaping my mindset for a better future.

 

After years of personal growth, I seized the chance to help others by becoming a Personal Development Coach, NLP Coach, Hypnotherapist and a manifestation Coach. Though I wouldn't wish my past on anyone, it's shaped me into who I am today. Guiding others through similar struggles fills me with pride. 

 

Healing is ongoing, and my approach allows you to develop long-lasting skills and confidence, with my support whenever you need it. "Soul Healing" reflects the depth of transformation I've experienced, reaching the deepest level of my true self. 

 

My mission is to teach you how to take action and create a life you are proud of living.
