Alchemy in the Mid-life Kitchen

Gain Clarity and Purpose, and Awaken Feminine Consciousness for the Afternoon of Life

Who Am I?

As I approached mid-life over 20 years ago, I struggled to find my way. It was akin to being lost as what had guided me in the first half of life did not seem so relevant and yet I could not see what would lead me through the afternoon of life. I had to leave behind what was no longer useful and take a courageous step into the unknown. And then what wondrous horizons awaited.

I now work with women approaching and taking this journey. Many women have told me they fear loss of control, uncertainty, blocked by beliefs that no longer serve them and unsure of who they really are.

Entering the alchemical mid-life kitchen and putting all these fears into the blender is the beginning of transformation. It is the way to discovering one’s own voice, the unsung song within, and the beauty in all aspects of one’s life and becoming a conscious, empowered woman, and I invite you take this journey too. The world needs this feminine wisdom and power. As Carl Jung said, “The privilege of a lifetime is to become who you really are”.

About My Program

N

Who It Is For?

  • If you are a woman 45 and over and moving into or through menopause, and midlife, and feeling somewhat anxious or depressed and unsure of the future then this is for you.
  • If you find yourself over committed, over doing, tired and depleted by the demands of career, relationships, family, then this is for you.
  • If you’re feeling restless, yearning for something more, longing for deeper connections, wanting to make a difference but no idea how t o realise your deeper potentials, then this is definitely for you.
M

Who It Is Not For?

  • If you want to stay stuck and continue to be depleted then this is not for you.
  • If you are not ready to uncover and get rid of what is blocking you from being a woman of power this is not for you.
  • Sometimes it’s so much easier to keep being what others tell you that you should be – and you don’t want to find your own voice, then this won’t work for you
  • This is not a panacea or a miracle cure – this is about becoming. So don’t join if you want a miracle.
