About Garth Delikan
His perspective was forged through experience rather than theory. After reaching the top of a successful career in London advertising, Garth saw his professional life unravel through betrayal, the collapse of his own business and the end of a 28-year marriage in rapid succession. What followed was clinical depression, severe anxiety and a period of rebuilding from the ground up. Rather than return to the life he had lost, Garth began creating a new one, first through kickboxing and personal training, then coaching, NLP, hypnotherapy and public speaking.
That reinvention changed the direction of his life. Working with clients in Kensington, Chelsea, Mayfair and Knightsbridge, Garth quickly discovered that outward success rarely tells the full story. Behind impressive careers, beautiful homes and financial security, he met people struggling with confidence, stress, identity and a profound sense that something was missing. It led him to focus not simply on changing bodies, but on helping people change the thoughts, behaviours and emotional patterns driving their lives.
Today, Garth brings together decades of leadership, coaching, fitness and personal transformation to help people stop carrying emotional baggage that no longer serves them and build the confidence to move forward. His work explores everything from resilience and overcoming adversity to healthy aging, self-belief, lifestyle change and the connection between a healthy mind and a healthy body.
Now approaching 70 with the energy, discipline and curiosity that have defined his life, Garth is also a compelling example of why reinvention has no age limit. His conversations are candid, energetic and refreshingly free from jargon, blending hard-earned lessons with practical tools people can actually use. Whether he is talking about rebuilding after rock bottom, changing the way you see yourself in the mirror or finding the courage to pursue a different future, Garth's message is simple: you are never too old, too stuck or too far down the wrong road to change direction.

What emotional eating is really trying to solve
Emotional eating is usually treated as a bad habit to control, but for many midlife women it has become a coping strategy for stress, pressure, and feeling unseen. The mistake is attacking the snack while ignoring the belief loop that made food feel like relief in the first place. Through clinical hypnotherapy, NLP, and coaching work, he sees women make stronger progress when they identify the trigger, change the response pattern, and rebuild the trust that another restrictive plan cannot give them.
Why midlife weight struggles rarely start with food
Women over 40 are often told that weight gain is just a metabolism problem or a discipline problem. The hidden risk is that another diet can temporarily change the plate while leaving the stress patterns, self-talk, and emotional habits untouched. In his work across hypnotherapy, NLP, life coaching, and weight loss, the recurring pattern is that behaviour shifts more reliably when women understand what food has been doing for them emotionally.
The confidence cost of being everyone else's steady one
Many professional women in midlife are successful on paper but quietly feel disconnected from the person they see in the mirror. The default assumption is that confidence will return after the weight comes off, but the deeper issue is often years of being responsible for everyone else while losing trust in their own needs. This conversation gives life coaching and personal development audiences a practical way to talk about self-image, emotional eating, and rebuilding identity without reducing it to willpower.
