See, there’s a moment in life where everything on the outside looks exactly as it should.
Say your career is stable. You’re good with where your family is at.
Your sense is that you’ve done well. Maybe even better than you once imagined.
And yet, somewhere inside, there is a quiet point inside that isn’t so stable.
You might experience it as a kind of emptiness you can’t quite explain.
Or a restlessness.
You might feel it as a sense of wanting more… but without the map that tells you where “more” actually is.
I’ve coached many leaders arriving at this inflection point.
Life is going well; their success is well-earned, the view from the top surprisingly still. And yet, beneath it all, you have this feeling that all is not quite as it should be.
“What now?”
“What’s still possible?”
“Is this really enough?”
What’s fascinating to me, is that once we dig down, that restlessness often comes with the opposite energy too. It’s a rush of ideas.
They see so many possibilities, sparks of excitement, it feels like standing at a buffet with too many dishes. Everything looks fab, but choosing feels impossible.
In all the noise of that potential, something tgets lost.
Your deeper longings.
The desire to leave a legacy that feels real, not determined by what others think.
In the Home Straight work I lead, we slow everything down.
We create space to hear what your life is actually asking of you now.
We explore what your heart longs for, as much as what your mind imagines.
We consider what impact really means for you at this stage.
We begin to orient you toward a future that feels vibrant, rather than one you’re simply managing or counting down on.
For me, restlessness isn’t a problem.
It’s actually a signal, nudging you into the next chapter of your life’s meaning.
If you’re noticing this shift - the twitchiness, the potential, the confusion, it may be time to explore what your legacy could look like when it’s shaped from who you truly are, not who you’ve been expected to be.
If that resonates, I’d welcome a private conversation. It’s gentle space for us to open up what your heart is really beating for. You can message me here for a next step.
