MEET THE FOUNDER

Screenshot 2025-04-23 at 01.17.57.png

I am Shirland McKoy — founder of Restore to Soar, and a woman who has walked the very journey I now help others navigate.

I know what it feels like when a relationship ends and the life you built no longer feels familiar. I know the questions that rise in the quiet:


Who am I now? How do I begin again? Where do I find the strength to move forward?

​

​

My own rebuilding did not begin in a moment of confidence. It began in the raw places — in grief, in uncertainty, and in the slow work of rediscovering who I was beyond the roles, expectations, and losses. What I thought would break me instead rooted me, strengthened me, and revealed a calling I could not ignore.

Restore to Soar was born from that journey.

​

With a background in leadership, social care, emotional safeguarding, and years of supporting women in vulnerable seasons, I bring both professional insight and lived experience to this work. I understand what emotional safety looks like. I understand how identity can unravel. And I understand how powerful it is when a woman finally feels seen, held, and supported.

​

Restore to Soar is the space I wished existed when I needed it most — a place where women can heal honestly, rebuild gently, and rise with purpose.

​

This space is for the woman who carries silent grief.
For the one who appears strong but feels lost inside.
For the woman ready to rise — not perfectly, but wholly.

Here, you are not judged.


You are not defined by what ended.
You are in the meaningful process of becoming.

​

This is more than a programme.
It is a soft landing place.
A steady lifting.
A wellspring of life.

​

Welcome to Restore to Soar.


Welcome to your next chapter.

YOUR INVITATION TO RISE...

FROM SURVIVING TO SOARING

 

If you are reading this from that quiet, tender place — the aftermath, the ache, the What now? — please hear this:

  • You are not alone.

​

  • You are allowed to pause.

​

  • You are allowed to feel overwhelmed.

​

  • You are also allowed to not have all the answers right now.

​

And you are also allowed — fully, freely, and without apology — to rise again.

​

This is your invitation 

​

  • To heal at your own pace.

  • To rediscover who you are

  • To step into a new chapter you choose with intention.

  • To become the woman you were always meant to be.

  • To soar beyond what you thought was possible.

​​

When you're ready, we are here.

​

Let’s rise — and soar — together.
