PRIME LIFE DESIGN
craft your exit pathway & design your post-work life
“The afternoon of life must also have a significance of its own and cannot be merely a pitiful appendage to life’s morning.”
Carl Jung
Let’s design a life you love….
Retirement is not the best word, it carries negative connotations somehow, usually linked to a traditional expectation of endless cruises, gardening and golf!
But what if you still have more to do and give? Millions of baby-boomers, arguably the wealthiest generation in history, comprised of people who have lived life fully and had to adjust to staggering changes in the workplace, are currently retiring every year. If you are one of these people, or even someone who is considering retiring early with a different shift in priorities, then let’s talk about designing an accomplished, extraordinary, meaningful, balanced, post-work life that you’ll love.
This prime time of life is something to anticipate and celebrate; a time of life where you finally get to do what you love best and find most fulfilling. You can plan to spend your time in a myriad of ways which are meaningful to you - you get to create a bespoke timetable, unencumbered by financial pressures or a full-time rôle. Arguably, with the experience and skills that you have, the connections you have made and the passion within you to continue to show up and create, this could be the best time of your life.
You are probably thinking ’How do I know what I should do? What is right for me?’ Huge questions which many struggle with as they approach retirement, because one size most definitely does not suit all.
The good news is I can help! I have developed Prime Life Design, a bespoke coaching programme equipping you to plan and execute a hopeful, timely and gracious transition into the next season of your life.
The Programme
The programme takes a unique approach; this is not a financial planning model, it incorporates a ‘whole of life’ review, quickly getting to the heart of who you are and what is meaningful to you. This approach is both psychological and intensely practical – the goal is greater self-knowledge, and increased clarity and confidence in making decisions to launch into the next season of life. The coaching journey provides a structured approach, giving you time and space to do your best thinking and design a life which suits you: maybe to continue working in a different capacity, considering how to leave a legacy which makes an impact, figuring out the new balance with family relationships, setting goals which continue to stretch you, recognising all the skills, experience, networks, passions, values and the unique contribution you bring to the table in order to give back, and then planning an orderly emotional and practical transition into this next season.
The Coaching Process
The programme consists of twelve 1:1 coaching sessions, each lasting between 1.5 - 2 hours. The frequency of the sessions is something we will agree on during your onboarding call.
What’s the next step?
Give me a call, I would love to speak to you and we can discuss your situation and how I can help you design the life you want to live in this next season!
What they say…
As I approach a new season in my life, I felt a deep need to prepare for the changes, to realise my potential and to seize the opportunity. I engaged Maddy as my coach to help me with that preparation and I wasn’t disappointed. Maddy has steered me in a way that has been incredibly helpful. I had a head full of ideas and she enabled me to filter them, resulting in a clear picture as to how I take my life forward into my new season. The benefits have allowed me to see the future with structure and a clear plan as to what I want to achieve. Maddy has stirred my soul into believing I have some of the most productive years ahead.

I am way past the middle of my working life and looking to focus exclusively on my strengths in the years left to me. Working with Maddy has helped my crystalise my vision and purpose in this new season, and as a consequence I am experiencing a feeling of coherence in my work and life which is the greatest ever. I am 100% confident the work I have chosen is correct, it uses everything in my life to date, and will allow me to leave a great legacy. Thank you Maddy.
