Unearth Her was born from this simple truth: when a relationship ends, most women don’t need to be fixed, they need to reconnect to themselves.
Separation, divorce, and heartbreak have a way of pulling you into the past. Replaying what happened. Questioning everything. Carrying the weight of what you did or didn’t do.
But staying there only keeps you stuck.
I’m Tess Milton, an internationally certified (ICF CCE accredited) Master NLP Practitioner and Master Life Coach, and a member of the International Institute for Complementary Therapists (IICT).
Through my own experience navigating divorce, and after helping hundreds of women do the same, I’ve developed a future-focused approach to healing that helps women step into their power and rebuild a strong sense of self - fast!
I am yet to see anyone else in this space teaching like this, and it’s a method that would have saved me years of suffering after my own marriage breakdown. This is because women who are wading through divorce, already know their past intimately. They don’t need to analyse it more - they need a way forward.
My work centres around helping you reconnect with what you want and where you’re heading next. From that place, the real blocks begin to surface; the self-limiting beliefs, heavy emotions, and misaligned patterns that have been quietly keeping you stuck.
Together, we gently unpack them, reframe them, and rewire what’s underneath.
The result is a woman who creates change from within. Who feels aligned with her future, and starts walking toward it with clarity, confidence, and self-trust.
Not because she’s forcing it, but because it’s who she’s becoming.
This is the work of Unearth Her.
Not coping.
Not circling the past.
But stepping forward; grounded, clear, and deeply connected to yourself again.
Hello, I’m Tess.
I’ve been where you are.
I’ve sat in a marriage with an alcoholic, slowly losing myself while trying to hold everything together. I’ve walked away from that life with two boys under six, no money to my name, no family within two hours, and no idea how I was going to rebuild - let alone heal.
I’ve felt the weight of it all. The fear. The guilt. The second-guessing. The constant noise in my head wondering if I was ever going to be happy again.
I wasn’t just starting over, I was starting from nothing.
And no one teaches you how to do that.
No one teaches you how to process the grief, the anger, the relief, and the confusion all at once. No one teaches you how to trust yourself again after everything has fallen apart.
So I figured it out.
Not by staying stuck in the past, but by learning how to come back to myself.
By understanding my emotions instead of being ruled by them. By unpacking the beliefs that were keeping me small. By reconnecting with what I actually wanted and who I wanted to become next.
That’s what changed everything, and it’s the work I now do through Unearth Her.
Today, I support women navigating separation, heartbreak, and identity loss I help them move forward with clarity, confidence, and a deep sense of self they can rely on.
This work is honest, it’s deep, and it creates real, lasting change.
You don’t need to have it all figured out. You don’t need to hold it all together. You just need to be willing to take one step forward.
And I’d be honoured to take that step with you.
Grounded in training. Led by lived experience.
