I am Carole D. Monteiro, a Certified Counsellor and Coach dedicated to supporting 40+ mums with a little one who are navigating the emotional, physical, and identity shifts of motherhood and midlife at the same time.

When I became a mother at 42, I realised just how little support existed for women like us – women who are thoughtful, capable, and accomplished, yet suddenly thrown into a season that feels overwhelming, tender, disorienting, and profoundly transformative.

I understand the quiet exhaustion of holding so much:
the mental load, the identity changes, the hormonal shifts, the constant juggle, the pressure to stay strong, the longing for calm, and the desire to still grow as a person – all while raising a little one you love more than anything.

My work blends counselling, coaching, and gentle, practical tools to help you reconnect with yourself, find steadiness again, and build rhythms that support your energy, your wellbeing, and your evolving identity. I offer a compassionate, judgment-free space where you’re not asked to be perfect – only honest, supported, and human.

My mission is simple:
to help you feel like yourself again, even in the busiest, most tender season of your life — and to rise into the woman you’re becoming, with calm, clarity, and confidence.
