  • Summary

  • Eight years ago Carmel Ecker found herself struggling emotionally to fit into a life she never imagined would be hers. Newly divorced with a one year old child, she felt constantly exhausted and completely stuck. She knew she had to find a different way to live. That’s when she discovered the world of personal development.

    Less than three months later, despite her lack of confidence, Carmel began to challenge the endless reel of negative thoughts running through her head with the help of a coach she had hired, and discovered she had the power to create the life she wanted. She no longer felt limited by the ideas she had of what single parenting meant, she started an amazing business, and has never looked back.

    Today, Carmel is a life coach who empowers single parents to create and execute the plan they want for their life. Through her 5-part system, the Single Parents’ Guide to an Empowering Life, she is helping them create a new, more empowering story for their future.
