Career Coaching for Midlife and Beyond

Practical guidance, grounded reflection, and real-world insight for navigating later-life transitions.

Publication: 28 October 2025

About the book

This book brings together decades of experience in helping people find renewed direction in midlife and beyond. It’s written for career professionals and anyone supporting others through work and identity changes later in life.

Blending psychology, research, and practical tools, it explores how to help clients re-engage with their strengths, reshape their working lives, and prepare for what comes next, from career renewal to the transition beyond full-time work.

Career Coaching for Midlife and Beyond forms part of a wider body of work that includes my reflective projects ThriveSpan and Olderhood Unfolding, both exploring how purpose, joy, and wellbeing evolve as we age.
