Welcome

Your second half of life — your 50s, 60s and beyond — feels very different from your first. Many people find it challenging, changing, confusing, or simply a little out of sync. I can help you make sense of it, feel at peace with it, and live it with more clarity, lightness, and freedom.

My 50s were filled with big challenges and changes, but also with wonderful new opportunities. It was tough, but with help I navigated it well. I bring stories, insights and ideas from lived experience, plus qualifications in science, teaching and psychology, and more than 25 years of professional coaching and presenting.

Here’s what you can discover on this site:
