Key Takeaways:
- Self-Responsibility is Crucial: Lasting change comes when individuals take radical self-responsibility for their emotions, experiences, and healing.
- The Importance of Inner Work: Both men and women need to explore their wounds and patterns to build trust and meaningful relationships.
- Do You Want to Be Right or Free?: Questioning whether you want to be “right” about your relationship beliefs or truly free from limiting narratives can be transformative.

About Alex Croxford:
Hi, I'm Alex
I am a sex, love & relationship coach and I’m committed to guiding you towards attracting a love beyond the ordinary.
My own love life completely changed when my perfect-looking marriage started to crumble. I felt so much shame. guilt, and fear about the future, I was completely floored and didn't know where to turn.
I had made some BIG mistakes and I never wanted to make them again. I was 38, and I knew I wanted to be in a relationship again one day, so I invested heavily into coaching, therapy, couples therapy, plant medicine, spiritual work, energy healing, and somatic work (amongst many other things!).
This inner healing journey changed my life – first I saw there was nothing to "fix" and more importantly that my unhealed wounds from the past that made me believe I wasn't good enough were impacting how I showed up in ALL of my relationships and they were playing out over and over again. It didn't matter who my partner was, it was the same sh*t different day.
I discovered that for me to create a different reality on the outside i.e. to attract a different kind of love, one where I felt safe, seen and understood, I felt alive, lit up, connected to my sexuality and my body, I had to address the beliefs and stories I carried about myself on the inside.
By taking RADICAL self-responsibility, addressing my self-destructive behaviours and unhealthy relationship patterns my life completely changed. Off the back of my own transformation, I quit a 20 year career in TV to share my deeply embodied teachings with the world, I moved cities and I met my now partner (and soulmate) Adam.
I’m trained in BodyMind maturation coaching, somatic work, sex, love & relationship coaching, holistic health, root cause healing, energy healing, and Chinese medicine,
And my vision is to take women on the same journey of awakening, so they too can call in the relationship of their dreams.
