The Story Behind The

Choose Yourself Method

I'm Emma Louise, Founder of Open Space Coaching and Host of The Self-Led Journey podcast.


Outside of coaching, I'm a proud mum to three incredible daughters and two much-loved dogs. They remind me every day to slow down, be present, and embrace life's ups and downs with resilience and gratitude. They're my biggest inspiration and the reason I believe so strongly in creating a life that feels meaningful, balanced, and true to yourself. 


My Journey
I've spent over a decade in demanding corporate environments. I understand the pressure to deliver, lead, and perform. I wanted to change my career 5 years ago but I kept being challenged with own self-limiting beliefs and self-doubt. I decided to take a Life Coaching certification and I was able to find myself again and created my own version of the Choose Yourself Method. Now, I am full-time coaching professionals to let go of their career that is no longer serving them and step into a career they love.

My Growth
Becoming a Certified Life Coach while leading a successful career in corporate construction was a pivotal moment in my journey. It reinforced a belief I now bring to every coaching conversation: when you choose yourself and invest in your own growth, you become a stronger leader, make better decisions, and create a more sustainable path to success.

My past challenges and setbacks didn’t break me—they built my resilience and helped me rediscover who I am. That journey inspired The Choose Yourself Method, a practical method that empowers men and women to trust themselves, build confidence, and pivot into careers and lives that feel completely authentic and aligned with their core values


How Can I Help You
Through my work, I partner with professionals and organizations to strengthen self-leadership, build confidence, and ultimately choose yourself every time. 

If you're ready to lead with confidence, align your actions with your values, and create meaningful, sustainable success, this coaching experience is designed to help you thrive—professionally, personally and help you to your new career path.

The Choose Yourself Method isn't about putting yourself first at the expense of others. It's about leading yourself first so you can lead others more effectively and step into a career that you love.

I look forward to working with you as you build the skills, confidence, and strategies to make that leap into your new career.
