I sat down with Beth Derry. We have a conversation about trusting yourself on the journey of growing your own business.

Bethโs business Lovely Messy Humans was born in 2023. It has emerged slowly. Coaching based on the science of being human and where we come from. Beth teaches ways to regulate our nervous system and apply it to our everyday life.

I open up about my redundancy for the first time, sharing how losing my role in 2023 at a pension startup I helped to build from scratch, was heartbreaking but forced me to reflect on who I am and what really matters.
Beth shared her own pivotal moments. Opening up about self harming when she was young and how changes in her personal life in later life, led her on a path to work with different coaches to understand herself better.
Realising we create every aspect of our reality. By looking at our different subconscious levels we can reframe to make life radically different.

Bethโs experience in emotional regulation led her to create an anger workshop with our mutual friend Tom Woodfin centred around building a healthy relationship with Anger. That is where we first met.
We discuss our primal need to belong which is why people tend not to get angry in fear of being rejected by the tribe.
However when we look at our nervous system it makes sense. Teaching it is okay to lean into anger and how it tells us important messages such as a boundary crossed. By feeling anger early we can find healthy ways forward.

One of the most profound aspects of Bethโs work is Havening, a technique that uses touch and guided visualisation to reprocess past experiences. Beth has used it on her own path and is now certified to offer it as a service.
I had one session with Beth in May 2024 which helped me unpack a difficult past breakup.
Beth guided me through the memory. We took the memory out of my mind and untangled it shifting my perspective to see it through a different lens. Without realising it at the time seeing that one memory through a new lens gave me a new sense of belief.

Till now Beth hasnโt turned Havening into a public offer.
Beth hired me and together we designed the entire journey. Helping Beth to create a commercial framework to release gently into the world. We share an insight into the creation journey.

One special thing about Beth is she has walked her own self discovery path and now using her experiences to help people who are on it now, trusting her intuition letting that be the guiding light forward.
