A modern sovereign woman is on a life-long learning journey. She is ready to examine the layers of beliefs, fears, anger, trauma, and social rules built up to create a constrained box that controls her responses, actions, and decision-making. She recognizes that the seeds for powerlessness were planted before her birth through intergenerational trauma and reinforced through her culture, authority figures, and familial patterns.
As we untangle these conditioned behaviors, we can connect challenges with solutions, more fully experience our feminine consciousness, redirect the need for external approval towards an inner authority, have an inner marriage of opposites, feel connected to Life, and better integrate self-support.

IT’S LIKE HAVING A COACH IN YOUR BACK POCKET!
As your coach, I’m here to help you navigate the challenges you experience as you move toward your second half of life. In this stage of life we have the opportunity, and sometimes the necessity, to reinvent how we engage in the world to this point.
Here are just a few of the topics that come up in Second Half of Life Coaching:
Balancing career goals, potential age-related discrimination, or transitioning to retirement or part-time work.
Maintaining and expanding social circles, finding new friends or communities, and dealing with feelings of isolation.
Many women over fifty grapple with ageism in a society that frequently overlooks their valuable experiences and contributions.
Maintaining good physical and mental health, including concerns about weight, exercise, and maintaining overall well-being.
The second half of life is an inspiring chapter of expanding creativity and embarking on new creative pursuits.
Shifting identity often arises as women navigate evolving roles, priorities, and aspirations that come with thisstage of life.
Caring for aging parents or family members, which can involve health concerns, caregiving duties, and financial planning.
Individuation unfolds as women continue their quest for self-discovery, personal growth, and examining their lives.
Coping with health issues that may become more prevalent with age, managing chronic conditions and regular health check-ups.
Mental health concerns like anxiety, depression, or stress, which can sometimes become more pronounced.
Adjusting to life after children leave home, which can involve finding new interests, hobbies, and purpose.
Life changes hone the skill of tolerance for ambiguity, equipping individuals to embrace uncertainty with resilience and adaptability.

Some of the coaching conversations I have with my clients include the following:
A Specialized Coaching Program designed for women on the journey to discovering the wisdom and beauty awaiting you in the second half of life.
Designed for women who want to be on a journey with like-minded women.
The International Coach Federation defines coaching as partnering with clients in a thought-provoking and creative process that inspires them to maximize their personal and professional potential.
Coaching is a one-on-one conversation where you and your coach co-create your vision for the program. During the one-on-one calls, Terri will ask questions, dig into the needs, concerns, and emotions behind your goals, explore how external/internal factors may affect your mindset and decisions, discover links about how external/internal factors affect your progress, and provide resources and coaching activities towards reaching your goals.
While every coaching experience varies, the vast majority of clients experience:
If you are fully engaging with your coaching, doing the homework, and preparing for sessions, you will experience growth, new possibilities for your life, and actionable insights. While the outcome of change can have many great benefits, the experience of changing can be, at times, hard. We go through this together. Terri deeply listens, offers support and resources, and together you identify next steps that fit your timing.
Begin by scheduling a 30-minute Introductory Call with Terri. Here you can discuss your goals and ask questions. From there, Terri will send you the paperwork to sign up and access the coaching app.
Many companies offer employees reimbursement for external training and development programs. Check with your employer to see if this is a possibility for you.
Coaching sessions can be rescheduled or cancelled with 24 hours notice. A session is considered missed with no refunds if you fail to reschedule or cancel outside the 24 hour period before your next session’s start time or you are more than 15 minutes late.
