Where it all began
ProAge Coach & Lifestyle was born from a personal desire to create a space to support those experiencing one of life’s most profound transitions. My own journey was one of resilience and reinvention, experiencing personal and professional changes and challenges. From the moment I stepped out on my own in 1995 after the birth of my daughter, I relied on all my experiences so far to build a life on my terms, culminating in a complete career change to an Executive and Lifestyle Coach at the age of 60. Mid-life is a turning point, but the path beyond is not downhill – it’s in any direction you want it to be.

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.
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
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.
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.
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.
Find the values that guide you
Your values are the fundamental principles that define who you are. They can include things like honesty, responsibility and authenticity, and there are a number of exercises you can do to work out what yours are. These values are often the biggest influence on the beliefs you hold, which in turn drive the actions you take. One of the most common causes of unhappiness or lack of fulfilment is when the life you are living and the values you hold are out of alignment.
Let go of the beliefs that limit you
Beliefs are the assumptions or convictions that you hold about yourself, your abilities and the world around you. Some beliefs can be empowering, lifting you up towards your goals and purpose, but some can be limiting, hindering your progress. Together our aim is to assess your beliefs, find those that are holding you back, and look to replace them with ones that will give you the self-confidence to drive towards the future you want for yourself.
Action behaviours that make you
Our behaviours are the actions and responses that we have that can be observed by the outside world. Sometimes we take actions against our values because we feel we must, or our limiting beliefs have created habits that we need to break. By aligning your goals with your personal values, and driving your confidence through empowering beliefs, we can create meaningful and effective plans of action to achieve fulfilment and joy in both your personal and professional life.
