Yvette Puchert Life Coach

Yvette Puchert Life Coach Helping women calm their nervous system, release limiting beliefs and reconnect with their true selves, through coaching, breathwork and Reiki. Yes!

I am a passionate transformational Life Purpose and REBT Life Coach and Reiki practitioner with a unique career trajectory. After working in marketing for several decades, I realised my true calling was to help people transform their lives and discover their life purpose. This realisation came after years of searching for my own sense of purpose and feeling unfulfilled in my life and work. Through

my own personal journey of self-discovery and spiritual growth, I discovered the power of life coaching and Reiki as tools to help others connect with their inner selves and live more meaningful and fulfilling lives. As a certified life coach and Reiki practitioner, I guide my clients through the process of self-discovery, helping them uncover their unique gifts, passions and talents, and aligning them with their true purpose. My approach is holistic and personalised, tailored to each individual’s needs and goals. Often our inability to access our joy and life purpose is based on our irrational core beliefs which drive and define everything we do or don’t do. I have helped a number of clients overcome obstacles and transform their lives, finding greater happiness, fulfillment, and purpose. My passion is helping others awaken to their full potential and live their best lives with joy, authenticity and purpose. If you're ready to take the first step towards discovering your life purpose and transforming your life, I am here to guide you on your journey.

Your body may still feel the pressure to keep going.
To hurry.
To stay alert.
To hold everything together.

But right now, you are allowed to pause.

Sometimes healing begins in moments this small.
One softer breath.
One unclenched jaw.
One moment where your body realises it is safe to stop bracing.

I’m Yvette. I help people who are used to holding everything together reconnect with their bodies, regulate their nervous systems, and gently shift the patterns keeping them in overdrive through somatic work, coaching, breathwork, and Reiki.

I think many women become so used to holding everything together that they stop noticing what it’s costing them.

The constant readiness.
The scanning.
The pressure to stay capable.

Even rest can feel temporary…
because part of the body is already preparing
to pick everything back up again.

And it makes sense.

For many people, holding everything together
became a way of staying safe.

So just notice that for a moment.

What happens in your body
when you imagine letting something go?

Not forever.
Just for a breath.

💛 You don’t have to carry everything alone anymore.

This is what I hold with women…
walking from survival into embodied safety.

Before the shutdown.
Before the overexplaining.
Before the rushing, fixing, or pulling away.

There is a small moment where your body already knows.

And when you begin to notice that moment instead of immediately acting from it, something starts to change.

Not perfectly.
Just gently.

I’m Yvette. I help people who are used to holding everything together reconnect with their bodies, regulate their nervous systems, and gently shift the patterns keeping them in overdrive through somatic work, coaching, breathwork, and Reiki.

Where do you go?

There’s a moment most people don’t notice.

Something feels uncomfortable…
and suddenly you’re busy.

Thinking.
Scrolling.
Fixing.
Doing.

Not because you’re incapable of feeling.

Because your system has learned to move away from discomfort before you even realise it’s happening.

Most people think this is a mindset issue.

Often, it’s a nervous system pattern.

I wrote about the quiet habit of leaving yourself and what begins to shift when you notice where you go instead.

There’s a moment most people miss. When discomfort rises, you’re already somewhere else. This isn’t just avoidance. It’s a nervous system pattern you can begin to notice and shift.

06/05/2026

There are moments
where something is felt…

and almost immediately,
the mind tries to do something with it.

Fix it.
Understand it.
Move it along.

Just notice that.

The urgency.
The subtle pull to respond.

And for a moment…

you don’t have to follow it.

You can let it be here
without doing anything with it.

💛 If this is something you’re learning to stay with, I’m here.

You can understand yourself deeply…
and still feel on edge.

I’ve been sitting with this lately.

That strange place where you can see everything clearly…
you know what’s happening in you,
you can almost track it as it unfolds,

and still, your body doesn’t quite settle.

It keeps holding on.
Keeps preparing.
Keeps going.

There’s something frustrating in that.

Because it looks like you’re doing everything right.

You’ve done the work.
You’re aware.
You understand your patterns.

And yet something in your body
is still carrying more than you want it to.

I notice it in myself in small ways.

That pull to keep busy.
To steady things quickly.
To not sit too long in what’s there.

Not because I don’t know better.

But because the body doesn’t always shift
just because we understand it.

It shifts when it feels safe.

And that’s different.

That’s slower.
Quieter.
Less about doing,
more about being with what’s there.

If you’re reading this,
just pause for a moment with me.

Notice your body.

Your shoulders.
Your chest.
Your breath.

And notice…
is there anything in you
trying to change how you feel?

Just notice that.

And for one breath,
let everything be as it is.

You don’t have to force yourself into calm.

And you don’t have to figure this out alone.

I think a lot of this work
is learning that something shifts
when you’re not holding it all
by yourself.

Walking with women from survival into embodied safety

That part that feels too much.
Or not enough.

That part you try to move past.
Or keep hidden.

Nothing has gone wrong here.

When you stop pushing it away
and meet it, even gently…
something begins to change.

Not because it’s fixed
but because it’s finally being felt.

This is where softening begins.

I’m Yvette. I support high functioning, independent people in reconnecting with their bodies, calming their nervous systems, and gently releasing the patterns that keep them in overdrive through coaching, Reiki, and breathwork.

05/05/2026

It happens so quickly
we often don’t even realise it.

Something feels uncomfortable…

and we leave.

Into thinking.
Into doing.
Into distraction.

Anywhere but here.

Not because something is wrong with you.

Because at some point,
that felt like the safer place to go.

So just notice that.

Where you go.
How quickly it happens.

And then, gently…

come back.

Not all at once.
Just a small return
to your body.

💛 And if this is something you’re learning to stay with, this is the space I hold with women.





05/05/2026

Not your story.

The sensation.

That tightness in your chest.
The heaviness in your stomach.
The subtle hum under your skin.

You don’t need to change it.
You don’t need to understand it.

Just let it be there
and notice what happens next.

I’m Yvette. I support high functioning, independent people in reconnecting with their bodies, calming their nervous systems, and gently releasing the patterns that keep them in overdrive through coaching, Reiki, and breathwork.

30/04/2026

There’s a moment where your body wants to move away.
To distract, to fix, to get out.

But this…
this is where the work gently begins.

Not in forcing yourself through it
but in staying with yourself through it.

One breath.
Then another.

And slowly, something shifts.

I’m Yvette. I support high functioning, independent people in reconnecting with their bodies, calming their nervous systems, and gently releasing the patterns that keep them in overdrive through coaching, Reiki, and breathwork.
