Hi! I’m Emma.

I’m a psychotherapist who lives, breathes and eats the science of joyfulness, wellness and achievement. I’m the Founder of A Life I Choose, a self-development agency that guides clients to amplify their strengths so they can overcome any challenge and create the life they really want.
All the strategy sessions, workshops and talks I give are fuelled by my deep wish to belong to a world where people actively choose their lives! A person without choice is an unhappy individual. A person who passionately and resiliently lives their purpose experiences joy and fulfilment daily.
If you’re like me and you see that the more people are actively engaging in life, the happier our world will be, then we need you to be a beacon of this message by living it! My blog is one of my ways of creating dialogue with you, so that together, we can have a greater impact on our world.
With love x

The couple that meditates together...falls asleep together apparently! This was our lazy morning wake up. How are you spending this gloriously sunny public holiday? 👇 #meditate #love #alifeichoose
Are you or someone you love a personal-growth junkie like me? You know what I mean: the reflective, curious type who are always up for challenging themselves to achieve something new... What can you give them this Xmas to let them know you get them? I've created a Xmas Gift Guide with gifts they'd love to receive from you! Spread the Xmas Cheer!

Was I always happy? Hell no! I know depression, anxiety, fibromyalgia and a host of other struggles all too well just like I know many of you do. Our brains are not designed to be happy. They're designed to keep us alive by noticing worst case scenario and amplifying it so we can avoid pain and death. It's not our brains' fault! They're working to keep us alive, but they're not responsible for our happiness. WE ARE. I'm a joyful person because I've trained myself and continue to train myself to be! We only live once and I'm not settling for anything less than a life filled with JOY, LOVE and EXCITEMENT! If you want this kind of life too, join me at my New Year Evolution Workshop where I'll guide you to reconnect with your purpose! Whether you want to have more time for your family, get fit and healthy, start your business or travel the world, we'll make your vision for 2019 crystal-clear! You'll leave not only knowing where you're going but with a map of how to get there! Special prices when you bring your friends and loved ones.

Hey! Do you want a more exciting relationship and sex life?! We're about to speak about how to stay passionate and alive in your relationship by actively engaging in your personal growth! Huh? What does personal growth have to do with your relationship and sex life? To be fully alive, we need to be growing - on the edge of our comfort zone, exploring new territory, making mistakes. Sometimes, we sacrifice growth for safety and comfort, but when we do this we get bored. And when we're bored, we're boring - and guess what? Our relationship (and sex life) gets boring! Tune into @xfm100.2 at 9 this eve, when @with_melaniekelly & I will give you tips on how to live an exciting, growthful life in a way that is fulfilling and meaningful and keeps your sex life zinging! WOOHOO!! #sex #relationships #love #personalgrowth #alifeichoose
Do you find it hard to switch off from work? I do! I keep thinking about things I can do/improve/fix/change/try late into the night. I've often fallen into the bad habit of working until just before I go to bed - which isn't setting myself up for a restorative sleep. I've found that I need cues to help me relax and de-stress when I stop working for the day. That's why sometimes you see me dancing on my Insta stories in the eve. That's my cue - time to chill. Another thing I do is light candles all around my living room. Pete thinks it's excessive, but the gentle glow of all the candles lets me know it's time to unwind. What are your end of day rituals for relaxation?? 👇🙏❤
Pete: Can we stop taking selfies now? Me: Just one more. I don't think I'll wear any other sweater all December! 😄 How about you? Rocking your Xmas sweaters yet?🎅👇
Pete asked me if I wanted to go to Gozo for the weekend and my first reaction was, "How? We have so much work to do." As I saw my reaction, I knew it was just wrong. "No" to time with my husband, my best friend? It's so easy to get caught up in doing, producing, achieving. Don't get me wrong: achieving my goals brings me so much satisfaction, thrill and pride. But, what's the point of achieving when you don't slow down to enjoy and experience LOVE?? So, we went to Gozo. It was awesome ♡♡♡ How did you enjoy LOVE this weekend? 👇
For our businesses to grow, we need to connect with others. I used to experience social anxiety and this made connection really difficult! At the @she.malta event last week I told my story of how acknowledging my fear empowered me to keep it in check so that I could connect with others and grow my business. Watch, "How to Not Suck at Networking". Link @emma_alifeichoose #networking #socialanxiety #fear #rejection #business #growth #selfdevelopment #lifedesign #alifeichoose
TRUTH! Repost from my brother #mentalperformancecoach @thehoggblogg . Catch us on The Big Breakfast with Oz & Jay on Friday on @xfm100.2 where we'll be discussing things like mental performance training that we're both so into. Looking forward! #lifedesign #lifestylestrategy #purpose #fulfilment #goodlife #alifeichoose
Some people think I don't get scared to speak in front of people. They couldn't be further from the truth! Here's my story of how my fear of rejection was steering me to crash my business. Once I noticed my fear, I was able to get back in the driver's seat of my life and grow my business. "How to Not Suck at Networking" - the mini-workshop I gave @she.malta last Thursday is up on my YouTube channel: Link @emma_alifeichoose #networking #fear #business #success #authenticity #publicspeaking #lifedesign #lifestylestrategy #alifeichoose
This was me after my mini workshop at @she.malta last Thursday! It's funny how I used to be so shy - and still feel shy often - yet I love public speaking! I love connecting with you all! I love it when you feel a shift inside yourselves and you realise you're capable of achieving more than you thought before! I can't wait to meet you all again! And I hope to see you at my "New Year Evolution" workshop on the 19th January, at @activespiritmalta. Here we'll holistically design your 2019 so you reconnect with your purpose and overcome the fear that stands in the way of you taking action! You'll see that your goals aren't only achievable, they're also maintanable long-term. Raise your standards for 2019: accept nothing less than a life filled with joy, achievement and excitement! Set yourself up for success by using this workshop to prepare.

I'm always amazed by how suddenly we transition into winter weather! Are you snuggly and warm this eve? I'm editing tomorrow's video, "My experience of fibromyalgia so far: 2018 Update". I've come such a long way since I made my last video about this. My life is so different now - I'm well and joyful! I can't wait to share 4 tips with you that made a big difference for me. Have a good weekend everyone x

It's hilarious! @storypartytour Thank you so much for all your suggestions on my Insta stories! I'll defn try them out! I hope you found everyone's suggestions helpful too! Lots of ❤❤ #datenight #love #relationshipstrategy #lifestylestrategy #alifeichoose
Do you have an in-law who drives you crazy? And do you and your partner argue every time that in-law comes up in conversation or whenever u meet them? Some in-laws can really bring chaos to a couples' life and you've got to know how to talk about it and how to cope with it to make sure it doesn't wear and tear on your marriage. @with_melaniekelly & I recorded this show to give you the vocabulary to be able to have these discussions and so that you can understand the subtle dynamics that are happening between the 3 of you. We want you to feel supported, so you know you're not imagining this and you're right to be upset. At the same time, we want to empower you to handle this like a pro so you never allow your in-law to decrease the level of happiness in your relationship again!
