From Lawyer to Health Coach: A Journey of Resilience, Transformation & Advocacy

Ceinwen Lloyd
Having spent 25 years as a lawyer, I decided to make the change to become a health coach in 2023. Having been diagnosed with type 1 diabetes at the age of 10, I have struggled with the impact of long-term health issues, and understand the difficulties people face when coping with ill-health. I suffered kidney failure in 2011, and was fortunate to have a kidney and pancreas transplant. I was able to return to work and fulfil many of my career and life ambitions, but became disenchanted with the legal process, and realised that the stressful environment was having an impact on my own physical and mental health and those around me, so began to investigate how I could make a change to create a better and healthier life for myself and others. What I learned led me down a path of discovery into health and behavioural change coaching. I am undergoing studies to qualify as a Registered Health Coach, and also as a Registered Nutritionist. With my background I want to help effect change at a national level, and am working with the UKIHCA, the profession’s regulatory body, to gain more standing in government, and to ensure that the profession has the voice it deserves to refocus on the prevention of ill-health rather than the cure.
