In this episode of Coach Class, I had the pleasure of sitting down with Sally Worts, a garden designer, yoga teacher in training, and quietly influential content creator, whose journey is a powerful story of reinvention, resilience, and saying yes to life.
Sally and I first met on a yoga retreat in Goa, where a group of strangers quickly became a close-knit tribe. But behind Sally’s calm, grounded presence lies a much deeper story.
Sally shares how she began her Instagram journey during breast cancer treatment, using creativity and community as a lifeline through one of the most challenging periods of her life. What started as a weekly post became a source of confidence, identity, and ultimately transformation.
The conversation explores Sally’s evolving relationship with wellbeing, from giving up alcohol and discovering yoga, to embracing cold water swimming, garden design, and life coaching. Along the way, she reflects on rediscovering her sense of self after years of putting others first, and how she’s learned to prioritise what truly matters.
Now, at 57, Sally is stepping into a new chapter, training as a yoga teacher, studying life coaching, and planning a solo return to India to deepen her practice.
This is a conversation about:
- Finding strength through adversity
- Building confidence later in life
- The power of community and shared experience
- Learning to say yes, and knowing when to say no
- Creating a life rooted in wellbeing, purpose, and authenticity
A thoughtful, honest and uplifting episode that will resonate with anyone navigating change, searching for direction, or wondering if it’s too late to start again.
🔑 Key Takeaway
It’s never too late to rediscover who you are — and sometimes the smallest “yes” can change everything.
