THERE IS A REASON MIDLIFE IS OFTEN
REFERRED TO AS A CRISIS
" Maree is a world class coach, hire her and tell your friends to do the same."
Bern.
The word crisis comes from the Ancient Greek krisis,
meaning a decision, judgement or turning point.
A turning point.
A crossroad.
A time for making life decisions.
Midlife is synonymous with endings.
Relationships. Marriages. Friendships.
Careers. Businesses. Parents.
It's also a time for questioning.
Identity.
Direction.
How we want to be living.
It is also a time for new
beginnings.
MIDLIFE IS A RITE OF PASSAGE
" Working with Maree has been a life changing experience."

The rite of passage is a structure of human transformation the ancients knew very well.
A coming of age.
A journey of transition and transformation.
It begins with a calling. The desire for something to change.
And it has an ending, a middle and a beginning.
The ending is separation.
Leaving what we know behind.
The middle is the liminal space.
Where life gets messy.
Where we shed what we don't want and discover what we do.
The midlife rite of passage is a consolidation of who we are.
A movement from one form of adulthood into another.
A turning inward.
Towards maturity.
Wisdom. Elderhood.
A ripening.
Coming into our own.
And the beginning is the return.
We return to the life we know, but changed by the journey.
Returning to our relationships, our work and our community with a deeper understanding of who we are and what we have to offer.
A new phase of life. A new kind of service.
HELLO
HELLO I'M MAREE
I'm a trained and certified coach and I've been working in private practice with Gen X clients for more than a decade.
I'm also Gen X. A child of the 70s. I mean hey. I used to have a phone on the wall and I know how to send a fax.
So my understanding of midlife isn't only professional. It's lived.
In fact, my whole professional body of work is an outcome of my own midlife rite of passage.
I work in private practice from my studio on the Surf Coast, in person and online with midlife humans from all over the globe.
Midlife is messy and chaotic.
But use it to find the answers to your questions, and be willing to do the work.
And your midlife rite of passage will set your life free.
What do I want?
AT MIDLIFE THE STAKES ARE DIFFERENT
We've lived more.
We know more.
Mortality is more visible.
Time has become more valuable.
We start asking questions about the quality of the life that lies ahead of us, and how we need to shift.
Who am I?
What do I want?
Why don't I have it?
This is why midlife, at its most profound, is about making decisions.
It's a time to decide.
What's going to stay in my life?
What has to go?
What needs to change?
And how do I make the right decisions to support this
precious life?
"Maree has an extraordinary ability to help people see themselves more clearly when they’ve lost sight of who they are."

MIDLIFE COACHING HOW IT WORKS
"Maree is a world class coach. Hire her and tell your friends to do the same."
BERN
The
By the time we arrive at the midlife, we've
accumulated
baggage.
Old beliefs. Old roles. Conditioning. Things we've learnt about ourselves, other people and how life works.
Shitty partners. Selfish fathers. Needy mothers.
Successes. Failures. Compromises.
The perspective you have on yourself and your life has been built over 40 or 50 years.
And much of it has served you well.
But the beliefs and patterns that served the life you've already lived may not serve the life you want to live now.
These are our blindspots.
Beliefs we've carried for so long they feel like facts.
It's very hard to question what we can't see.
We think we're imagining the future,
but we're using the past to determine what we see.
There is a gap between knowing what you want
and believing you can have it.
You can't reimagine a new life,
with new possibilities, limited by old beliefs.
Coaching, at its core, is the art of pulling out your life story and showing you what you can't see for yourself.
As your coach, I track these blindspots as they occurred in your life and bring them into view so you can see them for yourself.
This is how we bridge the gap.
From what you really want, to where you are to.
We gather your excellence.
Everything you've learnt, lived and become.
We shed what holds you back.
