Hello, and welcome to Soul Seeds

A space where we honour the ache beneath the surface.
The longing to live more truthfully, more tenderly, more soulfully.
The quiet desire to come home to ourselves.
Whilst remembering not to take life quite so seriously.

🌸 About me

I’m Nathalie Cordell — coach, facilitator, guide, writer, teacher, seeker, space holder.
And also — a woman, a mother, a wife, a daughter of two cultures.

I was born and raised in France and have called the UK home for the past 25 years. I live in Hertfordshire with my husband, our teenage daughter, and our very independent cat — a free spirit and adventurer at heart. She enjoys our company, but only ever on her own terms. Fiercely sovereign, quietly loyal, and a little wild around the edges — she’s one of my best role models!

My journey has taken me from science to psychology, from corporate life to coaching, and now to this:
A space to hold the deep, sacred messiness of becoming and remember to lighten up along the way.

Like many of the women I work with, I spent years doing what was expected — chasing success, wearing the mask of “capable,” tending to everyone else’s needs.
But there came a moment (or really, many moments) when something inside me began to stir.
A quiet hunger.
A knowing that there had to be more.

More meaning. More depth.
More connection — to my soul, my body, my womanhood, my intuition.
More lightness. More joy.
Not just in theory, but in how I actually live.

And so, Soul Seeds was born.


🌿 About Soul Seeds

This space is part journal, part creative experiment — a slow, soulful place for women navigating life’s thresholds.
A space for reflection, reconnection, and realness where I share what I'm learning and unlearning in real time, inviting you to walk alongside me as I navigate my own becoming.

Here, you’ll find writings on:
🌕 Midlife and identity
🔥 Feminine wisdom and inner change
🌿 Living cyclically and soulfully
💫 Creativity, visibility, and self-trust
🪞 Finding meaning in the messiness of becoming
✨ Reconnecting with wonder, play, and adventure

I write to make sense of the beauty and chaos.
I write for the woman who is quietly unravelling, and knows she can’t go back to who she was — and who's ready to approach what comes next with more curiosity, more courage and more life.
I write for you.

Some of what I share is open and available to all.
Some is more intimate — offered only to paid subscribers. These are the deeper letters — the more personal, tender pieces that feel like they belong behind a door gently closed, but not locked.


📬 How it works

Free subscribers receive a monthly newsletter exploring themes connected to the season and whatever feels alive in that moment.

Paid subscribers receive more intimate access to my unfolding journey:
💌 Deeper reflections and personal essays as inspiration rises
🌕 Meditations, visualisations, and practices when they emerge
✨ Behind-the-scenes sharing from my creative and spiritual journey (including my upcoming pilgrimage to Egypt and book publication process)
🔥Occasional live workshops and gatherings when the timing feels right
💎Access to the full archive of writing and tools

Think of it as intimate companionship on the path — sometimes serious, sometimes playful, always honest.

My writing flows with the seasons and my creative rhythm rather than a rigid schedule. Some weeks you might hear from me multiple times. Other weeks, silence. I trust what wants to emerge.

🌸 About Replenish & Rise

You may see references to “Replenish & Rise” throughout Soul Seeds. This was previously a structured membership programme with weekly gatherings and monthly workshops. That format has now closed, though the archive remains available for paid subscribers.

Going forward, Replenish & Rise is simply the name I give to the more practical, experiential content I share — guided meditations, journalling prompts, workshop recordings, exercises, and tools for transformation. These offerings emerge when they want to, without fixed structure or schedule.


Whether you’re here to read quietly or to dive deeper, I’m so grateful you’ve arrived.
There’s no pressure. Just an invitation. To pause. To soften. To begin again.

You can learn more about how this space works here, or simply subscribe and see how it feels.

Thank you for being here.
