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

At the age of 18, I decided I wanted to get married one day because I wanted a family of my own. & I wanted more than anything, a partner, a team-player, a soul-mate. Back then I thought it would be easy - fall in love, stay in love. And that LOVE was all that mattered. Fast forward 14 years and I realise now - as most of us have come to realise - that relationships take WORK & that love isn't enough. When we share our life with someone else, it's inevitable that we'll go through challenging times. There'll be times when we feel like we've changed and we'll wonder whether we still belong together. These times can feel totally unsettling. Shaking us to our core and making us feel lonely, unseen and like we belong nowhere. I've made a video with 5 tips on how to navigate these difficult relationship periods so that you strengthen the safety within your relationship and are able to grow through the experience - no matter what the outcome.

Its been almost a month since we connected with our compelling vision for the year. What are your 2 goals for 2019? If you're meeting road-blocks and doubting if you'll ever get there, this is 100% normal. Stay loyal to your vision. If the action you're taking isn't bringing you the results you want, don't abandon your vision, re-adjust your strategy. Different action = different results! Don't forget that visualising the outcome you want increases your chances of meeting that outcome. The visualisation we did at the workshop is on the A Life I Choose YouTube Channel.

"All I wanna do is make the whole crowd bounce y'all" !! I love you guys and your energy! This is the @lovinmalta crew at the NEW Year Evolution Workshop last January. Who said self-development wasn't fun?? Stars in this pic: @sianetriganza @lucasssamato & Rachel, I don't know your Insta handle!!

Dance to the rhythm of your heart ❤ In the womb, our hearts develop before our brains do. They're the centre of our intelligence. Listen to your heart. It's wiser than you give it credit for.

Shout-out to my Valentine... In the beginning of our love story we were like magnets who were so attracted but just couldn't figure out how to get along. So we'd attract, repel, attract, repel... And then we sought guidance so we could learn how to understand ourselves and how to communicate with each other. Things got better... in fact, things got rly good. Is our relationship always sunshine and roses? No! We're two different ppl creating a life together. Sometimes we grow at different speeds, our needs shift, our time demands shift and all these things throw us out of balance. But is it worth it? Yes. He's my love. I would rather argue with him and truly see him, than never argue and not truly know him. I would rather go through challenging times together than not, because every time we've gone through a rocky patch so far, we've had to get more resourceful and we've come out stronger. Thank u Pete for choosing to love me everyday. Loving you has brought so much richness to my life. ♡♡♡♡♡ If you want to get to know Pete & I better, check out our "Husband & Wife Tag" video.

I ❤❤❤❤❤❤ the energy in this photo!! Look at you guys go! Full of joy and total presence! I can't wait till the next A Life I Choose workshop when I get to be with you all again! Until then, stay focussed on your vision. Keep visualising it, believe in it. Own the identity you need to be in to make it happen. And take your steps to get there. Each and every one of you ROCKS! Btw, wondering who the "old guy" in the pic is? That's my father! I thought my parents would hang out on the side of the room and just help out but they ended up totally committing to the process AND rocking out!! It brought me so much joy! With love & gratitude, Emma xxx @mrh099 @mmhogg @youliqve @laurysimons Images of the NYE workshop by @isaacbut & @traceysammut #selfdevelopment #purpose #joy #love #contribution #alifeichoose
I just uploaded the HUSBAND & WIFE TAG to my YT channel. Link @emma_alifeichoose How have our lives changed since we've been together? Who's more outgoing? Who's more romantic? What was our last argument about? Get to know us better as we answer these questions. And better yet, do this exercise with your loved one! It's a sweet, bonding exercise that you'll really enjoy! #love #valentines #husbandandwife #alifeichoose
Since @mvintage asked me to represent self-love for their Valentine's campaign, I thought I'd treat myself to some of their beautiful pieces as a V-Day gift to myself. How are you celebrating V-Day? @with_melaniekelly & I recorded a show all about how to create a celebration of LOVE that meets your expectations without breaking your bank acct. Link to watch/listen to it: @emma_alifeichoose Sending you love xx #valentines #selflove #alifeichoose
"Choose your passion, not your safety." - Paulo Coehlo To experience a fulfilling and joyful life, we need to be achieving in alignment with our sense of purpose. It's not enough to win...win in a way that matters to you. Win in a way that fills you up so you much that you're totally driven to continue helping and inspiring others to do the same! Living in alignment with your purpose isn't about roses and fairy-cakes. It's gng to be scary, ppl will criticise you, and there's gng to be loads of growing-pains. But the world needs you to be you and to do what you're here to do. You are part of a complex, intricate systme that is bigger than you, yes, but your contribution is VITAL. Quit hiding. We need YOU. @tamarawebb_ & @nevisewebb sharing the "What's your passion?" exercise at the New Year Evolution Workshop.

Having a good relationship with ourselves doesn't mean that we always like what we see. A big part of self-love is being honest with ourselves about the behaviour that isn't serving us and the people around us. Self-love is about self-compassion and kindness and grace - totally. And it's about honesty. And because we're all flawed human beings, sometimes we need to honestly own the ways in which we need to improve and then take the steps to do so. True self-love is a massive act of courage. Read about what self-love is to me on my interview with @mvintagejewels. Link to post @emma_alifeichoose What does self-love mean to you? ❤👇 . . .

Whenever you feel stuck, anxious or fearful, SHAKE YOUR BODY OUT! Dance your toooshie off and feel yourself smile 😊😁 Bodies that don't move don't come up with any grand solutions. Engage your mind by engaging your body. @diandramattei_face_body_hands & @krystlepenza Image by @isaacbut & @traceysammut #mindset #focus #selfdevelopment #joy #alifeichoose
What do you really want? Not, what are you hoping you'll get lucky with? What do you really want? - To excel at competitive sports? - To take your business international? - To increase your income? - To revv up the passion in your relationship? - To have a healthier, stronger body? Life is so hectic that when we're not clear on what we want and we're not actively taking steps to get there, we end up being pulled in directions that don't serve us. We end up responding to everyone else's demands on us and this drains us and ultimately, it's not useful to the ppl around us. Ask yourself, what do I really want? What do I want my life to be like 1 year from now, 3 years from now? And WHY? When you're driven by your compelling vision, you're unstoppable.

The "naughty girls" at the back! 😄 These women brought so much love and energy to the workshop! They were ready for a fun afternoon of rly looking at their lives and owning the role of "life-designer". @suebencini, @xa_xa1504 @maltese_mystic_yogi at the New Year Evolution Workshop, 19/01/19.

When we feel connected to others our nervous systems are calmer. We can think clearly and take daring movement towards our goals. If we "fail" it's no biggie cos we know that ultimately we belong. I don't think these 3 men knew each other before the New Year Evolution Workshop... they came not knowing what to expect, bravely open to a new experience. And check them out 10 minutes into it! It's all about CONNECTION. @andrearciola , @willprivitera & @jordansaliba94 Images by @isaacbut & @traceysammut #selfdevelopment #malta #mindset #lovelife #lifedesigner #alifeichoose
Remember when we had to use a telephone box to call someone? And they'd actually have to be home to pick up. Nowadays we can be contacted any place, any time - through email, phone, text, Insta, WhatsApp, Twitter... We're constantly connected and at the same time, so often we feel disconnected, frustrated, and lonely. What do you do to make sure you feel connected? How do you connect with yourself and then with others? x #connection #selfdevelopment #mindset #relationships #alifeichoose
It's the first lazy Sunday I've had in months! I took my nieces to the swings, had lunch with family. Now I'm pretty certain I'm going to nap 😴 How are you enjoying your Sunday? 😊👇 #sunday #rest #recover #enjoy
