Coaching for Creative Self-Expression & Personal Growth

You feel the pull to create to express what’s real, but it doesn’t feel simple.
Maybe you overthink every brushstroke, word, or idea until it feels safer not to try.
Maybe you worry it’s not “good enough,” or that others won’t understand.

You’re not alone... and you’re not broken.

This space is here to help you gently reconnect with your creative voice,
so you can express yourself freely, without fear, perfectionism, or pressure to perform.

Together, we’ll meet what’s blocking your expression and soften it,
with compassion, creative reflection, and a little soul-guided courage.

Because this isn’t just about making things.
It’s about expressing what’s real in a way that finally feels like you.

Maria Duckhouse

Hi, I’m Maria, an Artist, Life Coach and Guide for Soulful Self-Expression.

Becoming an authentic self-expression coach wasn’t a straight line for me
but it was profoundly transformative. For years, I struggled to share what I truly felt.
My voice felt buried under self-doubt, fear of judgment, and the pressure to get it right.

Through creative exploration, healing, and a return to my inner truth,
I discovered the power of expressing myself freely, not just in art, but in life.
Now, I help others come back to their voice, too.

If you’re feeling creatively blocked, disconnected, or unsure how to express the truth within you
I’m here to walk alongside you as you return to the clarity, confidence, and originality that’s always been yours.

Whether you want to reignite your creativity, speak your truth more clearly,
or live more aligned with who you really are. This is the space to begin.

Many blessings, Maria xx

My business is transformed after working with Maria. It's fascinating, I didn't know coaching could be so rewarding! I had been stuck on an income plateau for 2 years and I was still chasing clients. Since starting m coaching, I have a structured plan that really supports me and the work we do. I am clear and focused. It's amazing how much you can accomplish when you are not spending it worrying. And the best part is that we have been able to double our income for the last 2 months! There are no words to fully express my happiness,
Thank you so much!!!!
