Story Anon
I’m 45 and I’m an artist.
I was depressed and emotional, lacking purpose and a sense of worth. Silly things would set me off and I would argue with my boyfriend constantly, especially about his lack of commitment.
We've been together off and on for 6 years and had recently bought a house together. I'd given up my job as a web designer in London to move out of London to be with him and hopefully start a new career as an artist. He didn't care what I did as long as I paid my way.
After one of our heated arguments about commitment we split up. I was completely devastated. I decided to spend some of my savings and go travelling. I found Life Change Holidays through the internet and planned a 6 week tour of Thailand including a week's Counselling Retreat.

My name is Emese and I am an emergency response specialist in the humanitarian sector.
I still remember the day I decided to go to Thailand for a Life Coaching Holiday, and how it felt like such a leap into the dark as I’d never tried any coaching or counselling, or anything like this before.
A few years ago I had a crisis at work which rattled my confidence very badly. I was just a few months in to a new role which was essentially my dream job, when I was put into a very difficult managerial situation. I couldn't really turn it down. My boss failed to back me up, leaving me feeling totally undermined in my first managerial position. For months after I panicked, I thought of going freelance but was really just spinning in circles of self-doubt as a result of these events.
I remember arriving in Chiang Mai and feeling exhausted and crushed.
When I looked at my personality profile, I saw myself very clearly; but the way that Alex explained it made me feel very comfortable that I was not being ‘put in a box’, I was just being supported in understanding myself better.

Hi, I'm Christabel.
I own a Michelin Star restaurant in Hong Kong and this is my story of how the most amazing, life changing thing can happen to people who least expect it.
For a long time I have been depressed, paranoid and totally lacking in self esteem. This was largely due to the death of my first child 10 years ago. I didn't really realise it though until my Counselling Retreat Holiday.

My name is Michael Homer. I am a Chartered Surveyor and Designer. This is my story.
It turned out to be a very unusual Valentines Day this year, and one that changed my life for ever.
For my valentine gift, taking in my birthday and Christmas for a few years to come, my wife handed me airplane tickets for a Life Change Holiday... some kind of Counselling Retreat (as far as I could work out) in Chiang Mai, Thailand. - "You're going to sort your head out once and for all, or you might as well not come back!"
She had booked me a holiday with something called The Life Change People. Over the last few years I have been through some major life changes; the arrival of our first child, my father dying of cancer, losing my job, moving house and becoming a house husband.
Despite being a happy and loving husband and father to the outside world, I privately became a negative, depressed, volatile and anxious man – apparently determined to destroy the love of my family and heading towards a major crisis.
This was, of course, oblivious to me as I wallowed in self pity and searched for the love that I was pushing away; angry with anyone who dared to contradict me.
And so, I set off to change my life.

My name is Steven. I'm an engineer, and this is my story.
Waking up one morning to the same thoughts that had plagued me for years I realized I had to do something.
I was stuck in a rut. It was slowly wearing me down to the point where I felt it could be irreversible.
Stacy’s Story
Hi, I'm Stacy.
Since my trip to the Chaing Mai meeting the lovely Chrissy, I have made many changes to my life.
My life was ok but I was massively unfulfilled and really wanted to review where things were going and sort out a load of baggage from the past.
This holiday gives you the tools to have a permanent holiday from your own head.
