Our Story

Unearth Her was born from a deeply personal truth: when life gets heavy, most women don’t need to be fixed, they just need to feel seen, supported, and reconnected to who they truly are.

So many mothers are quietly carrying the weight of emotional overwhelm. They’re holding it together on the outside, while inside they feel lost, stuck, reactive, or like they’ve forgotten how to be them. At Unearth Her, we’re here to help women shift from that place - not by teaching them to do more, but by guiding them back to their inner wisdom, emotional strength, and sense of self.

What started as my own personal healing has grown into a space of transformation for others. I'm Tess Milton, a certified NLP and Self-Discovery Coach (currently completing a masters in both), and everything I create through Unearth Her is about helping you stop outsourcing your worth and start coming back to you.

This brand is more than a website. It’s a body of work - a mix of coaching, tools, writing, meditations, and real-life guidance designed for women who are ready to get honest, take back control of their emotional state, and start showing up as the woman they dream of being.

From free resources and raw blog posts, to practical self-reflection tools and coaching that meets you where you’re at, everything here is built to support your comeback - not just your coping.

We’re not about perfection, pretending, or productivity hacks. We’re here for the woman who’s ready to reconnect with her truth, unpick the stories that no longer serve her, and start creating change, from the inside out.

And it starts with one brave step inward.

Hello, I’m Tess.

I’ve been where you are, more than once. I’ve felt buried under the noise and demands of life, doubting myself, second-guessing every decision, and wondering if happiness was something meant for everyone else.

I’ve felt lost as a wife to an alcoholic. I’ve struggled to hold it together as a grieving single mum with two small boys. I’ve been broken, burnt out, and disconnected. And even in a safe, loving second marriage, I’ve felt myself start to slip away again, because the overwhelm doesn’t always come from chaos. Sometimes it comes from forgetting who you are while holding up everyone else.

But I’ve learned that change doesn’t come from waiting for someone to rescue you or from rearranging the outside pieces of your life. It comes from getting radically honest with yourself, learning how to regulate your emotions, and reconnecting with your own power.

That’s the work I now do through Unearth Her.

Through 1:1 coaching, I guide women through emotional overwhelm, relationship uncertainty, and identity loss. I help them reconnect with their values, create emotional safety, and shift their life from the inside out.

This is honest work. It’s not always easy, but it is empowering, playful, and life-changing.

You don’t have to hold it all together.
You just have to be willing to come home to yourself.

And I’d be honoured to walk beside you as you do.
