Work with me

Who would benefit most from being coached by me?

If you’re a mid-lifer looking to embrace the opportunities offered by increased longevity & longer working lives, who’d like some support with re-evaluating your priorities, getting clear on your purpose and values, what you’d like the next phase of your life to look like and the part you want work to play in this, and how to make whatever changes you need to make in order to realise this vision , then I’d love to have the opportunity to work with you and help you move forward.

These are some of the mid-life work-related challenges that may prompt you to seek the support of a coach, and which I can help you with:

  • you’ve become stuck doing work you no longer enjoy, but feel too weighed down by your lifestyle and financial commitments to make a change

  • after 30+ years, you feel as though you’ve outgrown your current career - but you don’t want (or can’t afford) to stop working entirely, and you’ve no real idea what you’d like to do instead, or whether it’s even feasible to make a change at this stage in your life

  • your priorities and aspirations have changed – perhaps as a result of wider life events, and you’d like to change the way you work, or the work that you’re doing, to better balance your financial security and wellbeing needs and make your work more sustainable (i.e. able to be continued over a longer period of time)

  • your main career has come (or is coming) to an end as a result of planned retirement or redundancy, and you’re struggling to figure out the role you want work to play in your life going forward, or to find meaning or a sense of identity without it

  • you’d like to explore how  to live and work in a way which promotes your longevity as you go through your third quarter

The coaching process

I offer clients a non-judgemental and confidential space in which to re-connect with themselves, through engaging in a facilitated journey of self-exploration and discovery.

Through a process of open exploration and enquiry, I help clients to:

  • Gain a greater awareness of where they are now and what may be possible for them

  • Understand what’s important to them

  • Create a vision of work and life, or a way of being, that truly inspires them 

  • Develop an understanding of what needs to change to enable them to move forward, and what may be holding them back, as they look to move through the change process

  • Gain clarity around the actions they need to take to bring about change, and to set realistic expectations and timeframes, if appropriate

  • Develop their resilience and their ability to be with the uncertainty that comes with moving out of your comfort zone and embracing change

I support clients through the change process, using a non-directional, client-centric approach, which means that the specifics of the process, session focus and outcomes will be different for each client.
