When the career you've worked so hard to build no longer feels quite the same, it's easy to mistake change for decline. The truth is, you're not becoming less capable. You're experiencing a stage of life that asks something different of you.
Perhaps this feels familiar ...
You've spent years building your career, earning respect and becoming the person others rely on. From the outside, very little has changed. But privately, you may be questioning whether you still want the life you've worked so hard to create, wondering what comes next, or questioning whether the way you've always worked is still the way you want to work. Many accomplished women mistake these feelings for losing their edge, when in reality they're experiencing a shift in priorities, perspective and what success means at this stage of life.
After more than 30 years of building and leading my own businesses, I found myself asking many of the same questions I now hear from the women I work with. I'm Jackie Clarke, founder of ProAge Coach, and today I help accomplished professional women create the time and space to think clearly, make sense of what's changing and move towards the next stage of life with clarity and confidence.

Following my appointment to a number of external Boards I was looking to improve and develop my leadership style and really work on my own self-belief. Her friendly, direct, and at times challenging approach worked incredibly well for me; keeping me honest.I’ve really enjoyed it and can genuinely feel the growth in confidence and understanding in and of myself. Which is what it was all about.
At the end of a 35-year Armed Forces career, Jackie provided invaluable guidance at a critical moment. Always professional, kind, and discrete, she moved at my pace, offering insightful, highly discrete and offering positive challenge to some of my wilder assertions; the feedback always compassionate, reasonable and insightful.
In reflecting where I first started to where I am now, it really does feel like night and day. I’m much more confident and positive and this is all thanks to Jackie who helped give me space to think about approach, messaging and direction.
Thank you to you for all your coaching and general patience and kindness! It's been a really transformative experience for me, and I'm sure without these sessions I would have had a lot more anxiety and stress about my work and where I'm going. Now I really feel like I have so much more control and confidence in where I'm going, ironically because I'm embracing the unknowability of it all
Jackie is quite possibly one of the nicest and most genuine people I have ever met. She provided me with a safe space to explore issues which had been frankly plaguing me on repeat for most of my life. I felt empowered to 'do the work' I needed to let go of old unwanted practices in my personal and work life that were holding me away from finding the happiness I deserved from the successes I had already achieved. You are a delight to talk to and I find your direct and insightful approach refreshing.
After our last session yesterday, I realized how lucky I am to have worked with you. Our sessions gave me a new perspective on life and myself, and thanks to you, I’ve taken a big step forward. Your inputs made me think and reflect, and I’ve learned so much.
Thank you so much for setting me free from all those limiting beliefs that were holding me back. Working with you has had such a profound impact on me and I love my work so much more as a consequence. I'm sure you will impact more people in the same way as your approach is so genuine and sincere.
You have given me an inner boost to finally remember that I can do better than what I'm doing at the moment. With being here for so long, I'd lost my confidence. With your support, I've gained the ability to aim for higher challenges that I long for and I just wanted to thank you.
We wrapped up the sessions and I came to realise how much better my perspective became after all these sessions with Jackie. Stay the same. Do not change. Always show the passion and the commitment that you have shown during our sessions
