As our life journey progresses, we encounter many changes along the way. Sometimes those changes are obviously positive like a raise in salary or a wedding. Other times the changes may not appear as readily happy, such as divorce or moving to a new location. Even the more stressful changes in life can lead to positive growth. All life changes can bring stress and uncertainty with them (even those that are wonderful and happy times in our lives). As women, we are often of the mindset that we have to be it all and do it all. As such, we believe we should fearlessly dive into life changes and not confess our fears. The truth is, life transitions can be scarey and it’s perfectly okay to feel some fear in working through them.
There is hope and choice available to you. No matter what life transition you may be working through, you can come through it stronger, wiser, and better. As a life coach for women, it is my role to support you and help guide you in your journey through transition. Together we can collaborate to find the best possible solutions, the brightest paths for progress, and to emotionally nurture you as you move through your transition.
Some examples are women in life transitions are:
moms with children going off to college
pregnanct women
women going through a divorce
women re-entering college
women relocating to a new city, state, or country
women in new career positions
There are many more transitional situations, of course. Without transition, you would not be here right now. Transition can be a stepping stone to better things. You can choose how you will experience your transition. You have that power. If you are interested in speaking with me about how women’s life coaching can supprt you in your own life’s transition, I would love to hear from you. Contact me at: jenny@thelifecoachforwomen.com

Picture this: the baby is fussy and it’s time to leave to pick up your other child from school. On your way to grab your shoes you spot the mail you forgot to drop at the post office earlier. You toss it into your bag, get the baby, and then…. where are your keys?! Retracing your steps you find them (in the fridge) and head out the door with baby under one arm and purse under the other. As you pull away from your house and try to catch your breath, you applaud yourself for only being ten minutes behind schedule. That’s better than yesterday.
Sound familiar?
Now shift your focus for a moment to “that one woman” you know. We all seem to have that one friend who has time on her side. She never arrives late, looking disheveled. Her children have clean faces. Her life is organized. And somehow she finds time to go to the salon. So what does she have that you don’t have?
Believe it or not – nothing! She has managed to find her empowerment and clarity and in that she has found a way to manage her time and her life. You have the ability to do the same thing. It’s just a matter of getting clarity, doing some personal “house cleaning”, and learning to honor your self and your time. The desire to achieve a balance between work/personal life/and family is one of the most common reasons that women seek out a personal life coach. In about 45 minutes, 4 times per month, you can get clear on what matters to you, set up structures to ensure your energy is expended in the most efficient way possible, and learn to make room for some YOU time. When you invest in your own well being, you give a gift to everyone who depends on you.
