You Don’t Need Another Empty Page

While many journals offer empty pages, If Lost Start Here offers a structured, compassionate journey. It is centred on Ten Guided Pathways: from Nature and Creativity to Purpose and Untethering, to help you build self-awareness and create habits that actually last.

Hi, we're Claire and Amanda, two friends who built the resource we couldn't find anywhere else. We love the science of wellbeing, but we kept wondering how to actually apply it when the laundry is toppling and the yoga mat is serving as a fort. The wellness world we found didn't reflect how we were just trying to get through life, so in 2019, we created If Lost, Start Here.

Claire is a wellbeing writer, podcaster, certified coach and emotions coach practitioner who helps people untangle what they're feeling and build a practice that fits who they are now. Amanda is a freelance writer, graphic designer and illustrator whose background in psychology, and talent for making things both beautiful and meaningful, shapes everything you see here.

We're here because we know what it feels like to be lost and because we believe finding your way can start with just one small step.
