Life Transitions Coaching

Support for the in-between times, when everything is changing, but nothing is clear yet

There comes a time—maybe it’s quiet at first—when the life you’ve been living no longer feels like it fits. It might show up as a restlessness you can’t shake. A growing disconnection from your work, your relationships, or your body. A sense that you’ve outgrown something, even if you can’t yet name what comes next.

These moments often arrive at midlife, but not always.

Sometimes they look like:

• Navigating the emotional terrain of menopause

• Grieving the end of a relationship, a role, or an identity

• Feeling pulled toward something new, but afraid to leave the familiar

• Becoming a new parent and realising there’s inner work you need to do to attune to your baby with presence and care

• Realising your life was shaped more by others’ expectations than your own soul

• A deep ache to reconnect with your body, your rhythm, your truth

These are not just moments of loss or disruption. They are sacred thresholds—powerful invitations to reclaim yourself.

You don’t need to navigate this alone

I work with people who are standing at life’s crossroads—often unsure, overwhelmed, or afraid to make the wrong move.

Together, we create space to:

• Slow down and listen to what your body is trying to tell you

• Make meaning of your experience—without rushing to fix it

• Access the wisdom held in your nervous system, so you can meet change with more steadiness and grace

• Reconnect with your aliveness, your voice, your yes and your no

• Integrate the past and move forward in a way that honours your deepest truth
  

  This work is not about forcing a new path—it’s about letting one emerge from within.

Grief is the gateway when it comes to big life changes

Grief isn’t just something we experience when we lose a loved one. It’s part of every transition—every moment we’re asked to let go of who we’ve been, to become something new.

Many people are surprised by the grief that surfaces during big life changes. But grief is the secret ingredient that helps us loosen our grip on the past. It softens the edges. It prepares the soil. The tears of grief bring fluidity—making space for who we are becoming.

Grief can be hard to feel. Most of us haven’t been taught how to meet these deeper emotions.
And often, what rises to the surface—big feelings, out-of-the-blue reactions, overwhelm — is just the tip of the iceberg. Underneath is something your body is ready to resolve.

When we work together, we explore what your nervous system is holding:

• What’s tangled together that doesn’t need to be

• What’s missing that needs to be integrated

• What’s asking to be met, metabolised, and released

Sometimes it feels like you’re falling apart, when really—your body is doing its best to reorganise and heal. You’re not broken. You’re not too much. You’re not going crazy. You’re responding in a very human way to the load you’ve carried for years.

Hormonal shifts, identity changes, nervous system thresholds — All of it shakes the ground beneath you. And yes, even if you knew change was coming, it might look nothing like you imagined.

This is why support matters.

You don’t have to navigate this terrain alone. With the right support, this in-between time becomes a powerful passage — not into breakdown, but into wholeness.

This might be the work if:

• You’ve always been the one holding it all together, and now you feel like you’re the one falling apart.

• You’ve tried talking about it but still feel stuck

• You're done with pushing, striving, and overriding your body’s signals

• You’re ready to live with more honesty, depth, and alignment

I want to provide you with support, lived experience and information so that you can navigate these transitions in an empowered way.  I believe our cultural narrative around transitions through rites of passage have been lost over time. Without the container of support, people feel lost and anchorless and can find it hard to find their direction and way through.

The typical Transitions my clients face include:

• Navigating the Peri/Menopause journey from a physiological, psychological, spiritual and cultural perspective,

• Becoming a parent and helping you navigate the changes in your relationship,

• Transition to Elderhood, doing the deep work to heal so you can thrive in life,

• Navigating living with post chronic and serious illness like cancer, autoimmune and syndromal conditions,

• Having the deep inner knowing that you have to make a big career change but you don’t know where to start,

• Working through a Midlife Crisis - Wanting to birth a new version of ourselves during Midlife,

• Women’s Empowerment, discovering, stepping into and becoming your personal power,

• Dealing with Death of a loved one,

• Reblooming after a divorce/significant relationship breakup so that you can find the love you want and deserve.

You might identify with one of these scenarios or maybe three or four. Maybe more?

I help individuals navigate deep healing, life transitions, and relational challenges by restoring nervous system balance, rebuilding trust, and creating a foundation for lasting change. My work is for those ready to move beyond coping into true emotional and relational transformation. I do this by helping you build trust, clarity, and emotional resilience so that you can navigate change with confidence.

I have deep expertise, professional training and education in Complex Change, Adult Development, Sexuality, Love and Relationship coaching, Somatic Experiencing and Life Transitions and I am a midlife person myself. I have a huge amount of lived experience moving through multiple life transitions. I am a parent of young adults, have been through menopause, survived cancer and a long cancer treatment, and navigated a corporate career to executive level, only to leave it all behind and then work in coaching and trauma resolution work which has involved an enormous amount of study, self-reflection and deep inner work, whilst at the same time parenting.

How is coaching different from therapy? How does it work?

I am a somatic coach so we work with the body and the mind at the same time. This means my approach is an experience first approach. This means we don’t just talk about things, we get to actually feel them, live them, practice them and make them your new reality.

Unlike other types of therapy that only work with the mind, we will go through a unique, leading edge experience that is founded in neuroscience, where we work towards your desires, discover what is blocking you and then go through practices together. I create bespoke home-plays for you (guided practices to do at home) to help you grow, transform and return to your natural wholeness and a new level of confidence, self awareness and self knowledge. So you will walk away with your own toolkit to help you regulate your nervous system, communicate better with the people in your life and to be with whatever life throws your way.

Logistics and Pricing

I offer 4 or 6 month coaching programs.   All sessions are online and I create a personal learning portal for you where I will give you home practices to do each week, in between our sessions, to facilitate the change you are growing towards. (You get to keep these forever). You can do either two or three sessions a month, sessions are 90 minutes long and you have access to me in between seasions. We can co-create a program for you so that you can blossom into the next stage of your life. You may be feeling that you need to combine transitions coaching, with relationship coaching and even a bit of executive coaching. We can do this. The program is bespoke and tailored to what you need as an individual. Therefore we can combine transition work, sexuality and relationship work, deep shadow work, nervous system repatterning; whatever you need.

The pricing for a six month life transitions coaching program depends on how many sessions a month you choose to do. For two sessions a month it is AUD$880 monthly for six months. For three sessions it is AUD$1320 a month. If you pay the full amount for the six month coaching program up front, there is a 5% discount.

The biggest gain from coaching is that you will come through your transition, whatever its nature, not feeling like your old self but a newer, more vibrant, more emotionally mature, more empowered version of yourself, with a new outlook on life and lots of new tools and strategies to deal with the day to day. This will boost your resilience and capacity to thrive.
