Don’t underestimate your midlife potential
The world so frequently underestimates the potential of women in midlife, while the truth of the matter is this: women in midlife are at the height of their brilliance, with the boundless potential of a second act of life stretching before them.
Championing women at midlife is my favorite thing
Throughout my three decades of experience as a coach, I’ve helped individuals, couples, executives, addicts, teams, schools and business owners see things and effortlessly shift towards a healthier outlook, having greater positive impact on the world. But my deepest satisfaction comes when I witness a woman release an invisible burden, feel the freedom, and claim that freedom as her own.
Midlife was my revelation
My personal midlife journey was a revelation. I felt the stirring of something unrealized, an inner knowing and inner voice that was calling to me and dying to emerge. The voice said I was not the roles and responsibilities that had previously defined me. I was something more and there was something more for me. So I began to explore, understand, let go and embrace the potential that was emerging. And midlife became the obvious focus for my practice.
In my national and international speaking opportunities I began to find my voice, but that was accelerated the year I coached the Leadership Skagit group, which is an intensive community leadership program.
I saw the importance of my voice in this environment. I saw how much my voice mattered. I started to notice the difference women could make and how powerful women are in the world. I saw the need for the female voice.
My mission is your midlife reinvention
I want to help midlife women find themselves so they can find their voice. And then I want them to use their considerable and collective power to heal the world.
This was my inspiration for creating all of my midlife offerings including retreats, one-on-one programs and online content. My desire is to create understanding and to reframe this unique time of life as something thrilling, sexy and amazing. And to call women to their greatness.
