I Stopped Losing Myself In Relationships & Chose Myself

I built a career with ease. Bestselling author, coach, women around the world turning to me for inspiration. Yet relationships were the place that never matched the rest of my life. No matter how much I achieved, I kept finding myself in dynamics that didn’t honor my depth or my truth.

Working with Star was different from anything else I had done. No surface tools. No quick fixes. I was met with directness, compassion, and the challenge to face what I had been avoiding. Over six months I began to see my patterns clearly. I stopped abandoning myself in connection. I learned how to meet my own needs with honesty and respect.

Everything shifted. My relationships now feel clear, reciprocal, grounded. I move with ease because I no longer negotiate away my self-worth.

Today, I am newly engaged and entering this next chapter with clarity and strength I had never known before. Star’s mentorship changed my relationships forever. I see myself clearly now, and that clarity has shifted everything around me.

I Didn't Let An Empty Nest Define Who I Am

Before I found Star, I was carrying unresolved trauma and stuck in the same old patterns in regards to men. The loneliness of being an empty nester left me feeling lost. I knew I couldn’t keep going like this. What drew me to her was the brutal honesty, the fact she was my demographic, and that rare blend, a coach with a deep therapy background.

Working with Star cracked me open. I realised I never asked for help. I didn’t actually want to be in a relationship. I learned how to comfort my inner child instead of abandoning her. Those shifts changed everything. I found a group of women I could travel with, I discovered real companionship, and I finally began letting people show up for me. For the first time, I felt worthy. I built a relationship with myself.

Now, I’m on a completely different trajectory. I have tools that work, I know the work I need to do, and I feel clear, confident, and grounded in my own clarity.

If you’re wondering whether to work with Star, my advice is simple... "Fucking do it. She saved me countless years of misery. I have radically changed my life and sidestepped landmines I would have otherwise walked straight into."

I Left My Husband And Never Looked Back

I was sleepwalking through my life. Vice President of a private college, late forties, the woman who could hold it all together. To everyone else I looked complete. Inside, I was empty. Nothing in my life felt like it was truly mine.

Working with Star was the turning point. I began listening to myself. I gave myself permission to write, to think, to enjoy, to want more. Each choice became a declaration of who I really am. Then came the bigger moves. I stopped saying yes to what drained me. I cut family patterns that kept me small. I walked away from expectations that had no place in my life.

And I did what once felt impossible. I left my husband. I bought my own home and protected my peace. I walked away from the job that depleted me and stepped into a role where I thrive. Now, I don’t negotiate my worth. I don’t carry lives that aren’t mine. I move through the world as a woman who owns herself. Because I do.

When I Realised I Was THAT woman, My 50's Became Extraordinary

I came to Star at a crossroads. I had no confidence in the direction I was heading. I felt unattractive, stuck in imposter syndrome, lonely, overwhelmed, and waiting for ‘the one’ to somehow fix it all.

What drew me to Star was her energy. Zero bullshit. Raw, direct, and unapologetic. She stood out in the midlife crowd online and gave me hope that more was possible. She planted seeds that forced me to really evaluate my life and stop hiding.

And the results? I believe in myself again. My confidence has skyrocketed. I started modelling in my 50s. I take bolder chances, wear what I want, and put myself out there without apology. I’m learning to date without it flooring me. I bought my first home, and I’m renovating it exactly how I want.

I no longer base my worth on the roles or identities others gave me. I own my worth as a badass woman people want to be around. If you’re at a crossroads and ready to stop drifting, accept where you’ve been, and take real action to level up, Star is the one. She cuts through the bullshit, zeroes in on what’s really going on, and shares from a place that makes you feel seen. She’s raw, kind, direct, and she will inspire the fuck out of you.

I Stopped Waiting for a Man and Started a Love Affair With Myself

I thought I had found forever, but what I really had was a situationship that broke me wide open. I was heartbroken, raising two boys, and still looking for someone else to make me feel whole. Doubt was loud. The question ‘Am I enough?’ followed me everywhere.

With Star, I stopped giving my power away. I stopped begging for scraps of love outside myself and started giving it to me. I sat with my pain instead of running. I listened to myself. I started saying, every damn day: I am her. I am enough.

For the first time, I chose me. No man. No outside fix. I stayed celibate for over a year and poured all that love back into myself. The shock was how good it felt. I became the happiest I have ever been as an adult, not because of anyone else, but because I finally fell in love with me. I no longer wait for someone to show up and complete me. I am complete. And everything in my life now rises to meet the woman I’ve become.

Divorce Redefined Me, I Refuse to Settle Ever Again

When I found Star, I was in the middle of a divorce. I didn’t want to collapse into bitterness or fall back into old patterns. I wanted to move through it as the woman I knew deep down I already was, even though at the time I felt like I was floundering.

Inside this work, I stopped waiting for change and started living it. I began embodying the woman I wanted to be, asking myself what she wears, how she carries herself, how she moves through her day, and then honouring her with small choices, moment by moment.

That shifted everything. For the first time in twenty years I am raising my standards as a single woman. I no longer say yes to half-hearted connections. I only let people into my life who bring reciprocity, honesty, and depth. I stopped compromising my energy to keep the peace. I treat myself with the same respect I used to hand out to everyone else.

Today I no longer wish for change. I live it. I hold myself to higher standards in every choice I make, and I am the woman I always knew was waiting inside me.

I Let Go Of The Past and Freed Myself To Live Fully

I had everything a woman could want; co-founder of a successful women’s golf clothing company, a great husband, financial security, a beautiful home. On the outside it looked perfect. But inside I was still dragging the weight of old traumas from my time on The Bachelor. I felt guilty for not feeling connected to the life I’d built, questioning who I was and what I really wanted.

Working with Star was the shift. I stopped living in my head and created a deeper connection with myself and my faith. I slowed down, stopped rushing, and learned to hear myself again. From that place, everything transformed, my relationship with my co-founder, my marriage, even the way I show up for my adult child.

The biggest change? I stopped looking outside myself for answers and reassurance. I cultivated that within. Today, I stand strong in who I am. I’ve released the past, chosen myself, and I’m living fully and completely in my present life. My business has gone from strength to strength, and I get to inspire women all over the world not just with what I do, but with who I am.

At 50 I Stopped Pleasing Everyone Else and Chose Myself

I had poured myself into the roles that mattered most, raising my children, supporting my family, giving through charity work. People admired me for my devotion, but behind the scenes I was running on fumes. Years of people-pleasing had dulled my connection to my own voice and desires.

When the chapter of full-time motherhood closed and the house grew quiet, I felt the pull to reclaim myself. I didn’t want to keep defaulting to old identities or living as if my worth came from how much I gave away. I wanted to know myself beyond service, beyond obligation, beyond pleasing.

With Star, I began to speak my needs clearly and stand behind them without apology. I let go of the endless second-guessing that ruled my decisions. With every step I grew more assertive, more honest, more anchored in my own authority.

That shift transformed my marriage. I now share a new depth of intimacy and respect with my husband. It also reignited my dream of culinary school, which I am finally pursuing with passion and joy.

The decision to prioritize my happiness has been liberating. I’ve learned that the only approval I need is my own.

I Put Down The Alcohol And Radically Elevated My Life

I felt cut off from everything, my environment, my body, myself. I undervalued my capabilities and numbed with alcohol. I held myself against impossible standards; not pretty enough, not perfect enough, never enough.

When I stepped into the work with Star, everything began to change. Instead of pouring my energy outward, I turned it inward. I practiced mirror work, softened the voice that tore me down, and began treating myself with the same care I had always given to others. Slowly, my life started to feel like mine again.

The true turning point came when I gave up alcohol. Without it, there was nowhere left to hide. I saw clearly how often I had abandoned myself, ignored my needs, silenced the younger parts of me, and pushed through pain instead of listening. This time I chose differently. I welcomed the child, the twenty-year-old, the forty-year-old versions of myself who had been left behind, and I brought them home.

Today my life is wide open with possibility. I am alcohol-free. I have raised my standards. I fully believe in my capabilities as an iconic older woman.

My Husband’s Affair Was the Wake-Up Call I Didn’t Know I Needed

Before I met Star, life was overwhelming. My husband’s affair left me lost and questioning everything, my worth, myself, my place in the marriage. Was it my fault? Where did this leave me? I kept trying to fix things by changing him, but it only left me emptier.

The real transformation happened when I turned that focus inward. I stopped outsourcing myself and poured my energy into me. I began taking care of my own emotional needs. I stopped waiting for reassurance from anyone else and started living out my desires, unapologetically.

That shift changed everything. I regained confidence, self-assurance, and self-respect. I claimed myself as a woman in her late 50s, showing up online as a visible midlife influencer and inspiring women all over the world to stop abandoning themselves.

And my marriage? It’s thriving now, not because I fixed him, but because I chose me first. Star created a fierce yet safe space to confront betrayal head-on. Without her, I would have been floored. Instead, I came out stronger, wiser, and living as the woman I was always meant to be.

I Stopped Waiting For Someone To Rescue Me And Life Showered Me With Opportunities

I described my life before this work as a supreme rut. Every day felt the same. I was detached from myself, caught in patterns I didn’t know how to break, constantly searching outside of me for reassurance. A friend, advice, someone to tell me everything would be okay.

The shift came when I stopped outsourcing my worth and turned inward. I became my own best friend. I met my emotions instead of suppressing them. I gave them space, I listened, and I responded with curiosity instead of judgment. For the first time, I trusted myself to take care of myself.

That changed everything. My sense of abundance expanded. Opportunities opened. My finances grew. I even moved across the country, something I once thought impossible. Because I no longer waited for external permission, I was steady enough to make bold choices, to follow through, and to support myself through the challenges.

Now I don’t abandon myself. I don’t wait for outside voices to tell me I’m okay. I hold myself. I lead myself. And I am building a life that is fully mine.

Cancer Didn’t Define Me. I Did

Cancer was part of my story, but it was never going to be the headline. Chemo finished, hair growing back, scars on my body, I decided they weren’t limits, they were markers of survival. What mattered was what I chose next.

With Star, I stopped making myself smaller for everyone else’s comfort. I stopped giving energy to relationships that drained me. I slowed down, listened in, and started choosing from self-respect. Every training session, every meal, every boundary was a declaration: I am not broken, I am becoming.

That choice changed everything. I shed the identity of ‘patient’ and stepped fully into my power as a sovereign, creative woman. My art became my truth. I launched my own clothing line. I hosted my first exhibition. I raised funds through a fashion show. Now I’m designing my next collection infused with feminine power and ancestral fire. I didn’t come here to just recover. I came here to live alive. And I do.

SHARON BENNETT. FASHION DESIGNER & ARTIST

I Stopped Feeling Sorry For Myself And Realised I'm A Badass (Who Can Do Anything)

I was completely frazzled. Overworked. Under-achieving. Convinced this was it. I was being pulled in all directions and had no control. I felt anxious, lost, unfocused, unfulfilled, bored with my own life.

What drew me to Star was her willingness to share her own experiences. She walks the walk. She embodies the kind of woman I wanted to become. Working with her cracked me open. I realised I didn’t have to conform to society’s expectations of what a woman should be. I started shedding the masks and identities I thought I had to wear to be successful.

The changes have been huge. I’ve learned how to deal with life’s challenges in both business and personally. I know who I am and what I want. I’ve built the confidence to make shit happen. I set stronger boundaries. I trust my inner wisdom. I am bolder in my choices. My business has sky-rocketed, from a small player to fully established in my field. My zest for life is matched by an inner confidence. I feel safe and powerful in myself. I feel in integrity with who I am.

If you know something is missing and you’re ready to do the work, invest in yourself. I am working with one of the most inspirational, badass, interesting people I’ve ever met. Star Monroe changed my fucking life.

JULIE STEPHENS. LUXURY HOLIDAY HOME ENTREPRENEUR

Menopause Became The Rite Of Passage Back To Who I Truly Am

On the surface, I had everything. A thriving business I built from scratch, a loving husband, a beautiful home. Yet after menopause my confidence collapsed. The imposter syndrome grew louder. My world felt smaller. Even simple trips I once took with ease became heavy with self-doubt. One morning I woke up and admitted the truth: I don’t even know who I am anymore.

That was my turning point. Inside this work I rebuilt myself. I turned my car into a classroom. I discovered my life wasn’t ending, it was a new chapter where I was finally the lead. I brought my inner child to the table with compassion instead of judgment. I stopped being pulled into other people’s dramas. I set boundaries. I went back to the gym. I reclaimed my body and my confidence.

I invested time in myself not only for my own growth, but so my daughter wouldn’t inherit the insecurities I had carried for decades. Now I feel daring again. I know I am good enough. I am living this chapter as myself, unapologetically.

FIONA FRANKLAND. LEADER IN PRIVATE CLIENT LAW

My Husband's Affair Gave Me The Key To My Queendom

I was no stranger to leadership. As a CEO in property development, I knew how to make bold decisions and carry responsibility. But when I discovered my husband’s affair, I was heartbroken, disoriented, and questioning my place in my own marriage. For all my outward power, I felt powerless at home.

When I came into this work, I expected to focus on him, on the betrayal, on everything that had gone wrong. Instead, I was asked a question that changed everything: What was your part in all of this?

That question shifted everything for me. I stopped living in resentment and started focusing on myself. I faced the ways I had settled, the times I silenced my needs, and the places I had chosen comfort over expressing my needs. I began showing up differently, clearer, more assertive, more present. The ripple was undeniable. My marriage transformed as I stepped into my own authority.

Today, I describe my relationship as deeply connected, we are a team, but more importantly I describe myself as the queen of my own life. No longer diminished. No longer outsourcing my worth. Star challenges you to face yourself, cut through the nonsense, and reclaim who you really are.

ELAINE WOOLVEN. CEO OVERBURY ESTATES

Divorce Didn’t Break Me, I Became Untouchable

I was moving through a brutal divorce, questioning my identity, and grieving the loss of the biker life I once loved. As an empty nester I felt lost. I had spent years being the good girl, the nice girl, softening my edges, explaining myself, holding back. Deep down I knew I wanted more. I wanted to stand behind my yes and my no without apology. I wanted to claim space and stop just getting by.

With Star, I got the directness I was craving. She challenged me to step up and call myself out. I stopped explaining. I stopped diluting. I began standing behind my opinions and creating a life aligned with what I want, not what others expect.

Now I carry myself with poise, confidence, and refinement. I communicate with elegance. I handle my triggers. I treat mistakes as gifts. I am present, decisive, and unapologetic.

If you are willing to dive deep with an older woman who has been through the fire, who will call you out, and if you really want it, Star is the one.

MONICA ESCALANTE. PHILANTHROPIST AND FORMER CEO

From Empty Nester to Starting My Dream Company

I was an empty nester, super self-aware from years of therapy, courses, and healing work, yet still stuck. Old trauma lingered. I had outgrown my therapist. I kept questioning myself and doubting my capabilities. Even after losing more than ninety pounds, I felt the shift hadn’t reached my inner world.

With Star, everything changed. I stopped measuring myself against the past and started making choices from who I truly am. I took everything I had learned in therapy and finally put it into action. I stopped reacting to my partner and my adult kids. I learned to hold myself steady when life threw uncertainty my way. I trusted myself enough to take a leap.

That leap became everything. I launched my own business, established myself as a go-to content creator and became a stylist to the stars. What once felt like a distant dream is now my reality, because it comes from the woman I chose to become.

BRENDA SEIDER. STYLIST & INFLUENCER

My Addiction To Working Was Killing My Marriage, Now It’s Stronger Than Ever

I was the coach everyone looked to for results, but behind the scenes I was stretched thin and watching the distance grow in my marriage. I held everyone else to high standards while abandoning my own.

With Star, I stopped running on empty. I claimed my time as mine. I voiced my desires with strength and love, and it brought intimacy back into my marriage and a deeper bond with my children. I started choosing adventure and rest alongside my work as the standards I now live by.

Today, I lead differently. My marriage is thriving. My connection with myself is unshakable. I pursue what I want with clarity and certainty, and I no longer trade my joy for achievement.

Working with Star didn’t just shift how I live, it raised the standard for everything I expect of myself and everyone around me.

JACQUI SCOTT. HIGH PERFORMANCE COACH

Age Didn't Stop Me Being A Sensual, Creative AF Woman

I had done the work on paper. The books, the retreats, the courses. I could name every pattern and trace every feeling back to its root. But all that knowing didn’t change how I was actually living. I was still on guard for other people’s moods. I kept overriding my own needs. My creativity was dormant. My body felt heavy and disconnected. I numbed myself with food, shopping, scrolling. I told myself the spark was gone, that joy and beauty and sensuality were for younger women. But something in me refused to accept that.

With Star, I began to move differently. I created space in my days to hear my own thoughts and let beauty lead. I listened to my body. I picked up a paintbrush. I took barefoot walks in nature. I wrote each morning to hear myself.

I stopped saying yes to one-sided relationships. I stopped twisting myself to keep the peace. I painted my dining room my favorite colour. My art is in magazines. I am reclaiming my sensuality on my terms. And when I look in the mirror I see a woman I respect and love being with.

Star Called Me Out on My BS, and I Rediscovered My Unapologetic Side

Before working with Star, I was consumed by my business. I had no time for myself, I felt overwhelmed and erratic, and I was stuck in a relationship with an emotionally unavailable partner. Stress was running my life, and I knew something had to change. I wanted to enjoy life again.

With Star, the breakthrough came in learning how to reparent my inner child and change the way I talk to myself. She called me out on my own bullshit, and that moment shifted everything. I began noticing my patterns, always chasing validation outside of myself, and instead started giving it to me. I stopped berating myself, which freed me from shame.

From there, I learned to value myself in a whole new way. I became more confident. I can voice my opinions. I can self-soothe, manage my emotions, and validate myself. I feel different now. I believe in myself.

If you’re motivated to change and willing to look deeper, then hire Star. She’ll take you straight to the root, and you’ll come out more powerful, more confident, and more you.

60 Became the Era of Me

At sixty I realised I had spent most of my life putting others first. Years of self-neglect left me unmoored, carrying a quiet ache for change. I didn’t want more of the same. I wanted to return to myself and finally pursue the dreams I had shelved.

With Star, I shifted my focus back to me. I stopped chasing external validation. I began listening inward. I started making choices from my own desires rather than obligation.

That opened space for everything I had longed for. I set off on a solo round-the-world journey. I started writing the book I had been dreaming of for years. I reclaimed my sense of adventure, my purpose, and my self-respect.

Star gave me the insight and support to finally choose myself. That choice opened the door to a life I didn’t think was possible.

When My Corporate World Ended, I Rose

When my corporate career ended, it felt like the ground had disappeared beneath me. I was lost, stripped of my identity, worried about money, my future, everything. I felt alone and powerless.

With Star, I began to see life differently. I dared to back myself again, putting in a tender that was accepted. That single decision cracked the door open to a new chapter. From there, I built my own business.

The real shift was in me. I found my inner strength. I realised no one else was coming to save me, I had to save myself. That’s when my confidence, clarity, and conviction came alive.

Now I run my own coaching and leadership business for women who have gone through the same upheaval I once faced. I am balanced, fulfilled, and equipped to keep building my life on my own terms. I believe in myself in a way I never had before.

If you are on the edge of change, trust Star. She will call you out, keep you honest, and push you to take action. She’s one of the best I have ever worked with, and this work changed everything for me.
