You’ve built the life. But now you’re wondering—what’s next?
I know that question intimately.
Because for years, I lived the version of success we’re taught to want:
✔ The roles.
✔ The reputation.
✔ The relentless pace.
I was the high-achiever. The one who got things done. The one who looked like she had it all together.
But beneath it all, I was slowly drifting further from myself.
It wasn’t burnout. It was disconnection.
And no promotion, productivity hack, or self-help book could fix that.
So I did what I now help others do:
I came home to myself.
“You don’t need to become someone new, you need to return to who you’ve always been.”
Meet Ellie Bell
Certified Performance Life Coach
Who I Am
I’m Ellie Bell—coach, mentor, and founder of Ellie Bell Coaching and Thrive After Sport. I guide high performers, leaders, and visionaries to reclaim their truth and lead from within.
With a background in sports administration, executive leadership, and high-performance coaching, I’ve spent over 20 years immersed in fast-paced, results-driven environments. I’ve worked alongside elite athletes, CEOs, and changemakers and I’ve seen what happens when outward success doesn’t match inward alignment.
Now, I create soul-led spaces for reflection, reconnection, and recalibration.
My work is grounded in the belief that alignment is the antidote to exhaustion.
That you don’t need to become someone new—you just need to remember who you are.
What I Believe
- Authenticity isn’t a buzzword—it’s a birthright.
- Leadership starts with self.
- Women are allowed to be powerful and soft, ambitious and restful, focused and intuitive.
- Success is most sustainable when it’s soul-aligned.
Beyond the Bio
- I live in Ōtautahi Christchurch, New Zealand with my husband and our children.
- I’m a lifelong learner, a former cricket admin pro, and an advocate for doing things differently.
- I believe in sacred pauses, honest conversations, and the magic of women gathering in circle.
- I work part-time by design—because alignment isn’t something I coach, it’s how I live.
