MIDLIFE, MENOPAUSE AND BEYOND

Lived-experience coaching for women and teams

I help people and teams through the moments in life and work that feel overwhelming, confusing or out of balance.

My coaching blends lived understanding with practical, science‑based lifestyle support so you can feel well, think clearly, and live and lead with confidence again.

HOW WE CAN WORK TOGETHER

Welcome.

​

This is where we look at what’s happening in your life or work right now. The overwhelm, the fog, the sense of being out of balance and make it feel lighter and more manageable. Through deep coaching, lived understanding and practical, science‑based lifestyle support we create steady, realistic ways for you to feel well, think clearly and move forward with confidence again.

​

There are three ways to get support.

Community Circle

A supportive space to feel understood, connected and less alone in the changes of midlife. From 2027, our Community Circle is evolving into a flexible, client‑led model. Small on‑demand groups you can join whenever you need a moment to breathe, reset or make sense of what’s happening in your body.

You’ll shape the conversations that matter most to you, with grounding discussion, practical insights and real‑life support alongside women navigating the beautiful, messy reality of midlife.

You’ll have access to deeper content and gentle support between sessions. Stay as long as it feels good, dip in and out when life gets busy, and re‑join whenever you need the space again.

Workplace & Teams

Talks, workshops and leadership coaching that bring clarity, trust and healthier ways of working.

Grounded in lived experience and human‑centred change, supporting leaders and teams through personal and organisational transition and the realities of modern working life.

Individual Support

Personalised coaching for life transitions and the messy bits in between. A calm, confidential space to make sense of what’s happening in your body, work and life; to move forward with clarity, steadiness and confidence.

Supported by The Four Foundations Lifestyle Programme, the practical, evidence‑based framework I created to help you feel well, supported and more like yourself again.

WHAT YOU'LL GAIN

A space where you feel seen and heard 

You’re more than your role, your symptoms or the pressure you’re under. Here, you’re met as a whole person with your story, your strengths and the weight you’ve been carrying.

​

Clarity about what’s really going on

Whether it’s a personal transition, a leadership challenge, or the changes of midlife and menopause, we make sense of the thoughts, emotions and patterns that have felt tangled or overwhelming.

​

Support that meets you exactly where you are

You don’t need the right words or a clear plan. You just show up as you are, and we work gently and honestly from that place.

​

Practical strategies that fit real life

My approach blends deep coaching experience with science‑based lifestyle insights, helping you understand your energy, stress and wellbeing in a way that feels doable, not daunting.

 

Strength for you and the people you lead

Whether you’re navigating change yourself or supporting a team, you’ll gain tools that build trust, resilience and healthier ways of working together.

​

A sense of yourself again

You’ll leave with more space, more steadiness and a clearer connection to who you are, not just who you’ve had to be.

​

For women navigating midlife changes

You’ll gain a clearer understanding of how stress, sleep, hormones and lifestyle interact and what you can do to feel strong, well and fully yourself again.

WHAT OTHERS SAY

Here are some reflections from people who have chosen to work me and continue to shape their stories with me as their coach and companion:

“Jackie provided excellent advice on menopause, diet, and nutrition, helping me understand how to look after my health during this stage of life.  Jackie has outstanding listening skills and always made me feel heard and understood. The support, guidance, and encouragement I received have made a real difference to my confidence and well-being.”

“It's fair to say that this experience has been life changing, I have really been able to tap into areas of myself and address some underlying issues that I had previously ignored. I never knew just how much these were holding me back but by undertaking these tasks I was able to unlock my full potential and really feel like I could be my true authentic self.” 

“Jackie never judges - helps put an alternative perspective and navigates confidentiality seamlessly - I feel totally confident placing my trust in her.”

Midlife isn’t chaos. It’s a whole-system shift you were never given the tools to navigate, until now.
A 6 session lifestyle programme for women in midlife and beyond.


If you’re feeling unseen by the medical system, overwhelmed by conflicting wellness advice, or simply unsure what to trust anymore, this programme is for you.


Built from my years of coaching practice and the evidence based lifestyle strategies specific to women’s health from midlife onwards, this framework helps you make simple, meaningful shifts that improve how you feel right now and strengthen your long term health.


Across six sessions (1:1 or small group), we explore the Four Foundations:
Clear Thinking reducing mental load, creating clarity and space (IQ)
Emotional Balance understanding your emotional landscape and building resilience (EQ)
Inner Grounding reconnecting with values, identity and what truly matters (SQ)
Body Wisdom working with your physiology, not against it (PQ)


Each session includes a Healthspan Focus, practical ways to improve the years you feel well. 

The core lifestyle strategies that support women’s bodies at this stage of life:
1.    Sleep
2.    Nourishment
3.    Movement
4.    Gut & Liver Support
5.    Symptom Support & Strategies
6.    Sustaining Your Self-Care

This is a practical, compassionate programme designed to help you feel more like yourself again; with clarity, confidence and a lifestyle that supports your body, your brain and your life.

The Four Foundations are my signature, whole‑person model, designed to help women understand the deeper patterns of midlife and work with their whole self: head, heart, body and identity.

Who I am

I’m Jackie, a coach, author and creator of the Team Worth and Team Tension models.  My work is shaped by lived experience, deep coaching practice and a long career supporting people and teams through the moments when life feels tangled, pressured or out of balance.

​

What I bring

I blend human‑centred coaching with science‑based lifestyle insights, helping you understand what’s happening in your body, your work and your relationships in a way that feels grounding, not overwhelming.  My approach is calm, practical and rooted in real life, especially for women navigating midlife and the messy bits of change.

​​

Why this work matters to me

I’ve lived through the shifts of midlife and menopause myself, alongside the pressures of leadership, caregiving and  personal change. I know how disorienting it can feel when your energy, clarity or confidence suddenly shifts and how powerful it is to have a space where you’re met with understanding, not judgement.

​

More About Me

I know how unsettling it is when your body changes and nothing seems to make sense. I’ve been there: confused, dismissed, and wondering why I no longer felt like myself. When I finally found research designed for women’s bodies, everything shifted. My symptoms eased, my energy returned, I felt hopeful again and better than I had in years.  That’s why this work matters to me: no woman should have to navigate this alone.

​

How I work

I’m known for helping women make sense of the bigger picture, connecting physiology, identity, relationships and the deeper patterns shaping their lives.

Whether I’m supporting an individual or a senior team, I create a space where you can slow down, make sense of what’s really going on and find steadiness again. Together, we work toward clarity, strength and real, lasting change in a way that fits your life, not someone else’s idea of how it should look.

My clients have described me as perceptive, reassuring and patient, able to challenge and question in a productive, insightful manner.
