# The Missing Piece

> Scottish lifestyle coaching practice founded by Alistair Johnstone, helping people rebuild their lives after trauma, addiction, and life's hardest moments. Well over a decade sober. Based in Scotland, available worldwide. Initial sessions: £60 for one hour.

Alistair Johnstone is a lifestyle coach and consultant with lived experience of addiction recovery, trauma, and personal rebuilding. He works with individuals who are ready to stop surviving and start leading — not through therapy, but through practical, accountability-driven lifestyle coaching.

The Missing Piece is not a mental health clinic or therapy service. It is a coaching practice that focuses on actionable change: goal planning, mindset shifts, rebuilding relationships, improving health and wellness, and developing personal empowerment.

Coaching is available in-person in Scotland and online worldwide. The initial consultation is £60 for one hour.
