COUPLES NAVIGATING CHANGE
Retirement brings new opportunities and dynamics to your relationship. This coaching series, which consists of 2 to 10 sessions, supports you through this transition. We’ll explore each partner’s needs and goals. We’ll create a plan that builds upon your bond and aligns your lives.
Strengthen your connection as you shape your shared future
Retirement offers freedom, but it can also disrupt familiar rhythms in your relationship. Taking time to align your goals and communicate openly is essential for navigating this transition together. Thoughtful conversations—about your ideal day, personal goals, and relationship evolution—can help you uncover a shared vision while honoring individual desires. Start with questions like:
What does an ideal day in retirement look like for me?
What are my biggest concerns or fears about this new chapter?
How do I envision our relationship evolving as we enter this phase of life?
How can I support my partner’s wishes and dreams and also stay true to my own?
These are very real thoughts and feelings.
As you prepare for or navigate this transition, you may find yourselves grappling with questions, uncertainties, or differing perspectives about what retirement will look like for each of you. These differences are natural but can sometimes create challenges if not openly discussed. Together, you can bridge these gaps and create a future that excites and fulfills both of you.

Did You Know?
Studies reveal that men and women often have different perspectives on retirement. Many men see it as a time for rest and relaxation, while women often view it as an opportunity for growth and rejuvenation. Understanding these differences can help you create a balanced and fulfilling vision for your shared future.
Maybe you’re feeling this desire to change too but you don’t know how or where to begin.
And, if you’re like me, there’s a lot of baggage that has piled up over the years which, even though it wears us down, we kind of get used to the weight of it all (disappointment, hurt feelings, unrealized expectations, etc.) But I also knew that I had feelings of unrest and discomfort. I wanted to move past these thought patterns that seemed to pull me back or pull me down. At this point in my life, I knew that I wanted to be more open, feel more deeply connected, respond better under pressure and represent my best self more often and more consistently. I knew this was vitally important for myself and for my relationship.
I discovered the pathway to making this happen, and I continue to make great strides in shifting into this place of clarity, presence, peace, and purpose and sharing it with my husband, too.
I learned how to throw that baggage I was carrying around out the window and also how to convert it into bundles of optimism and opportunity. And I’d love to share the process and tools with you. Together we’ll discover what will support you in moving forward, as individuals and as a couple, into retirement with an outlook of possibility and positivity too.

Your success story is next…
Hi, I’m Wendy and as a former sales leader I had the opportunity to build and sustain incredible client relations that resulted in fantastic outcomes related to greater brand visibility, market share and profitability for the wide-range of companies I represented.
But I wanted more! I wanted to take the connection, the desire to serve, the need to create, and the commitment to achieve results through action and share it in a different way. So I made a huge decision by honoring my inner voice. I decided to make a 180 career shift to coaching and I discovered this is where I belonged all along. I went back to school and earned my professional certified coach designation, certifications in positive thinking and retirement life planning (CPC, PCC, CPQC, CPRC, CRLC).
Now I help couples like you bring increased positivity and feelings of possibility into retirement so their relationships, their activities, and their days and years ahead feel more meaningful and fulfilling.
So, are you ready to create YOUR retirement? Join me and together we’ll make it happen!
