About

Hello, and welcome. I’m Liola Lee, an author, a qualified life coach, and a lifelong lover of the written word.

I was born in 1962, a baby boomer no less. I studied at the University of Greenwich in Southeast London, where I earned my degrees in the Humanities, up to Masters level. Words have always been my first love. I write from life experience. Nobody’s life is perfect, and mine is very much a work in progress.

I’ve written four books so far, two of them short ebooks. Each one grew out of real life: the messy bits, the wobbles, and many lessons.

I recently stepped away from social networking because I felt the algorithm was taking over. This website, built on open source WordPress (an ethos I admire), is my own quiet corner of the internet, where my words are finding a new home away from all the noise.

Coaching
I’m also a qualified life coach. I help women like me reclaim their lives through the philosophy of Ikigai, alongside a little magic and gentle alchemy. We all have inherent gifts to share with the world and I can only preach what I practice. as I’m on the path too. My coaching is just beginning to grow, so watch this space which will evolve as I do..

Beyond the books
When I’m not writing, you’ll often find me with a camera in my hand or my nose in the family archives. I’m a keen photographer and a lover of family history, and I’m endlessly curious about the stories behind faces and places.

My hope for you
I hope you’ll find something in my books that helps you on your journey, that helps you reclaim your life and find your way forward. And I hope you’ll come to see that there is magic everywhere, if we just pay attention. This new site is a tiny seed but with a little love and a lot of nurturing I hope to grow it into something quite wonderful.

Thank you for reading and hope you’ll visit again soon.

Blessed be.

Liola
