Many plan for their financial future but few plan for their future life.
You may be surprised to find it’s not as simple as turning the page. As a result, it’s not unusual to feel lost, confused or without purpose. And this disengagement can have a negative impact on your mental and physical health.
The key to finding happiness and purpose is to reimagine life so it’s aligned with your deepest desires. But the path forward is not always apparent.
What if you had a capable guide to show you the way?
When I ended my 30+ year corporate career to start my own business, I developed what I thought was a solid plan for my future. But a few months later, I realized I was in a deep transformative process. And I vividly recall feeling the need for guidance and support throughout my reinvention. This experience shaped the work I do today.
The post-corporate journey invites you to live in a brand new way, one of your own choosing. It’s about learning to rely less on the left-brain logical reasoning that made you a success in the past and more on developing trust in your right-brain inner wisdom.
This is the journey from head to heart, From Type A to Type Be.
I feel so much more prepared to for retirement. I am not as afraid of it as I was. When I look back in my journal I am blown away by all the amazingly useful tools you have given me and am beyond excited about what the future holds for me.

This is the twelfth episode of the Strong & Vital Series, a well-being series focused on the importance of proactive wellness in midlife and beyond.
Join Kathy today as she explores how to transform your inner wisdom into tangible results and meaningful progress with From Insight to Impact: The Practice of Inspired Action.
Whether you're looking to accelerate your career, achieve personal goals, overcome inertia, or simply ensure your insights don't go to waste, this podcast will show you how to activate your wisdom and confidently step into your desired future.
In the last several articles in this series, we covered the four wellness practices I do myself and recommend to my clients and students. Today, we’ll explore how to supercharge those practices and elevate their benefits with nature.
The decision to take your practice outdoors isn’t just about a change of scenery, although that’s always welcomed. It’s a strategic choice based on clear benefits. First, the physiological benefits, which include improved cardio vascular health, lower blood pressure and cortisol levels, enhanced immune system, reduced risk for chronic illness, better sleep and more energy. That, in itself, is reason enough to take a long walk.
But psychological benefits are interesting. I think we all agree that we feel better after spending some time outdoors – feeling less stress, mental focus, emotional regulation and an improved mood. But do you know why this is the case?
If you’ve been following this series, chances are you’ve reflected, journaled, held your big life questions and you’ve gotten glimpses of clarity. Perhaps you even have a clear vision for your next big life move or a deep understanding of what truly matters to you. But what do you do with that insight?
We’ll answer that question by exploring the power of taking inspired action. This practice helps you move beyond just knowing, allowing you to transform your inner wisdom into intentional action that creates real-world impact.
So what does “taking inspired action” mean and how is it a practice?
We often think the best answers come from external experts or exhaustive research. But it’s been my experience that the most profound insights are often waiting within you, ready to be discovered. In this article, we'll explore a practice that is as simple as it is insightful, designed to unlock your inner knowing in a surprisingly enjoyable way.
It’s the practice of holding a question and I think you’ll agree that it’s a unique and interesting way to cut through the noise and confusion so you can listen for the answers that truly resonate and move you down your most authentic path with confidence.
This practice is a conscious, sustained engagement with a specific query, allowing for exploration – not just in your mind, but also in your body and your heart. It's about inviting insight to emerge with curiosity, rather than trying to force an immediate answer. Think of your question not as a problem to be solved, but as a seed you plant and tend, trusting the natural process to unfold and bring clarity.
