With your life? With work? With friends & family, your colleagues?
We’ll consider these questions, and more
An online program for people dealing with invisible physical illness in their daily life, we cannot heal your illness, we can make it easier to cope
We’ll acknowledge your experience
Share as much or as little as you like,
with people who have similar challenges
You’ll experience how liberating it is being supported by people who have no emotional agenda in your life, we naturally protect those close to us
Each week we’ll focus on a different topic, a different aspect of living a life
You’ll explore what you want your life to be like, as you are living with this illness – there is no right or wrong way
You’ll learn to connect with what is possible and what you want given your current reality
You are not here to be fixed. Coaching gives you time and space to explore and find your own solutions, without advice or recommendations.
Please note: this is COACHING, NOT THERAPY.
- If you are suffering from depression or mental illness, please seek medical help.
- If you are currently receiving treatment for cancer or for an acute illness, we recommend you join a medical support group for your specific condition
Your facilitator is Kay Robinson, ‘A few years ago, I fell down some stairs, I wrenched my knee and broke a rib. Over the next days, I was limping about in obvious pain; people were kind, showed me sympathy and compassion. I was grateful, and yet, part of me was screaming – a broken bone that would heal in a few weeks was the least of my worries.
With all my years of experience in business, coaching and navigating, the sometimes tumultuous events of my own life, I love to create a space where my clients can take a breath, have timeout from stress and pressure, where the armour worn for daily life is unnecessary and status is irrelevant.
My work invites you to connect deeply with yourself, to notice what matters, what you need and what you want, particularly when you are coping with illness. Once the habit of connecting and noticing is formed, life becomes easier – that’s all of life – personal and professional. I know this from my own experience. Witnessing the transformation of my clients is one of the joys of my life.’

What others say about groups run by Kay:
How you do facilitation felt so safe, that was very powerful for me, allowing us to be in that connection with you really made a difference.
Deb MD, USA
Kay was a phenomenal coaching facilitator for our group sessions; I highly recommend anyone looking for self-development and spiritual growth to consider working with her. She provided just the right amount of structure so we knew what to expect throughout the process.
The structure of the sessions was balanced by her gentle and compassionate demeanor. I knew what to expect regarding the outline of sessions, but was consistently amazed at the end result of each session. Her encouragement of the use of metaphors allowed me to go to a peripheral space that was unfamiliar to me, but highly effective. The metaphors allowed me to connect on a deeper level to my inner wisdom, which in turn helped guide me towards the clarity I was seeking. Each session felt nourishing on a soul level, and the relationships created amongst the participants mirrored that, creating a safe space where each of us could openly share while Kay created the “container” for us to feel free to be vulnerable.

I was really impressed by how deep of an experience I had in the connection. But it was really this exquisite way that you held the space. I loved having an opportunity at the beginning to just talk and be heard and listened to and taken in.
Marcy, USA
It has been a complete joy to be part of Kay’s group. Kay guided us through beautiful, grounding opening meditations, held the space compassionately and asked thought provoking questions. Every session was facilitated in a thoughtful and gently probing way. Her use of mirroring my metaphors back to me enabled me to deepen my connection to myself and gain profound insight, not only from my own personal enquiry but also from those insights of other members of the group. I got so much from being in a group with such wonderful other people, with whom I felt a really valuable connection, which grew deeper over the course of sessions, such that they became the highlight of my diary and an invaluable resource during a difficult time.
