The Midlife Coaching programme
A Spiral of Growth
Most coaching is built around performance: setting goals, building habits, and tracking outcomes. While useful, this approach often misses the deeper layers — the emotional and identity shifts that make midlife transitions so unique.
In this work, it isn’t about doing more or doing better. It’s about rediscovering who you are now — and shaping a life that feels authentic and true to you.
At Midlife Coaching, our journey together is not a straight line. It’s a spiral: a continual return to what matters most — your values, your strengths, your vision.
Through powerful questions, each time you revisit your core, you uncover new insights and fresh courage to live more fully — with clarity, energy, and the confidence to shine.
The Six Stages of Midlife Coaching
This spiral unfolds in six interconnected stages:
1. Arriving & Grounding
What We Do:
We begin by creating a safe, supportive space. Together, we clarify expectations, boundaries, and how we’ll work in partnership. You set your initial intentions for the journey ahead.
Expected outcomes
✅ A clear coaching agreement and shared understanding of how we’ll work together.
✅ Confidence that you have a safe, supportive space.
✅ Initial clarity on what you most want to explore.
2. Exploring Your Present
What We Do:
With honesty and compassion, we explore your current reality. You reconnect with your core values, strengths, and aspirations, and name the transitions shaping your midlife experience.
Expected outcomes
✅ A deeper understanding of who you are and what matters most right now.
✅ Renewed connection to your strengths and self-worth.
✅ A compelling vision that inspires and guides your journey.
3. Envisioning Your Next Chapter
What We Do:
You begin to imagine what flourishing could look like for you. We give shape to a vision of your future that feels authentic, inspiring, and aligned with who you are now.
Expected outcomes
✅ Specific, meaningful goals that feel both challenging and achievable.
✅ Clear priorities to help you focus your energy.
✅ Confidence that your goals reflect your true desires—not external expectations.
4. Defining What Matters Most
What We Do:
We translate your vision into clear priorities and meaningful goals. Here, success is defined on your terms — not by external expectations.
Expected Outcomes
✅ A step-by-step action plan that feels realistic and energising.
✅ Tools and resources to overcome challenges.
✅ Early momentum and a sense of progress.
5. Designing & Practicing New Pathways
What We Do:
Through practical strategies and small, intentional steps, you begin to experiment with change. We anticipate challenges, build supports, and cultivate habits that feel energising and sustainable.
Expected Outcomes
✅ Tangible results from your efforts.
✅ Greater confidence in your ability to navigate change.
✅ Sustainable practices that reinforce growth and resilience.
6. Integrating & Moving Forward
What We Do:
We celebrate your growth and honor your progress. You integrate what you’ve learned into daily life and define how you’ll carry your renewed clarity, purpose, and energy into the future.
Expected Outcomes
✅ A sense of completion and pride in how far you’ve come.
✅ Clarity on how to maintain your progress independently.
✅ A renewed sense of purpose and direction for your next chapter.
My Commitments to You
Coaching is a relationship built on trust, respect, and integrity. These are the commitments I bring to every client I work with:
1. Confidentiality
Your story is yours. Everything you share remains private and respected.
2. Respect & Dignity
I honor you as the expert of your own life. Every conversation is free of judgment, pressure, or agenda.
3. Integrity
I show up with honesty, transparency, and professionalism at every step of our work together.
4. Partnership
Coaching is not me giving answers — it’s us co-creating a journey where your voice leads the way.
5. Care & Compassion
I hold space for both your challenges and your strengths, supporting you with empathy and encouragement.
6. Commitment to Growth
My role is to challenge, inspire, and walk alongside you as you move toward clarity, authenticity, and flourishing.
How the Journey Unfolds
Your coaching journey is designed to give you the depth, rhythm, and support you need to move through your second adolescence with clarity and courage.

Here’s what that looks like in practice:

A deep dive to explore where you are now and envision what flourishing could look like for you.
- 9 × 60-minute Coaching Sessions
Regular, focused conversations where we work through transitions, explore possibilities, and build strategies for growth.
- 1 × 90-minute Legacy Vision Session (optional towards the end)
A reflective session to integrate your journey and define the impact, purpose, and legacy you want to carry forward.
- Up to 4 × 15-minute Check-ins
Short touchpoints for support and accountability between sessions.
- Ongoing Email Support
So you’re never alone in the process — I’m here to walk alongside you.
