THE MIDLIFE APPRENTICESHIP

You are allowed
to become again.

There comes a point when the question is no longer simply,
“What job should I do?”

It becomes: Who am I now, and what do I want to do with the life ahead of me?

Nothing has to be terribly wrong for you to know something isn't right anymore.

You may have built a good life.

A career. A family. A relationship. A business. A home. A version of yourself that has carried you a very long way.

And yet, something has started to shift.

The work that once mattered doesn't land the same way. Your children need you differently. Your body is changing. A relationship is changing. Something creative is asking to come back.

Or perhaps you simply can't shake the feeling that the life that got you here isn't quite the life that will take you forward.

You don't need to know what the answer is.

You just need somewhere to explore the question.

What

fits me

now?

Work. Identity. Relationships. Body. Parenthood. Ageing. Loss. Creativity. What's next.

What if you approached your next chapter the way we help a young person approach their first?

Not with pressure to have the answer.

With curiosity.

GO OUTSIDE · LEARN SOMETHING · MAKE SOMETHING · MEET PEOPLE · FOLLOW CURIOSITY · TRY THINGS· BE A BEGINNER AGAIN

That is the Midlife Apprenticeship.

A supported exploration of who you are now and what might fit next.

You don't think your way into a new life.

You encounter it.

Six sessions.

Your life becomes the curriculum.

There is no predetermined version of you we're trying to uncover,
and no rigid curriculum to work through.

We start with the life you're actually living.

What happens when you begin?

BEGIN

Sessions 1 + 2

We start with you.

Your archetype chart gives us another lens through which to explore your patterns, strengths, tensions and the season of life you're in.

Together, we work out what is asking for your attention now.

EXPLORE

Sessions 3 + 4

This is where insight meets real life.

We follow what's emerging through conversation, somatic integration, creative practice and small experiments outside our sessions.

You begin gathering evidence about what actually feels different.

START MY MIDLIFE APPRENTICESHIP →

BECOME

Sessions 5 + 6

We bring the threads together.

What are you learning? What are you ready to change? What deserves further exploration? What do you want to carry forward?

You leave with direction, practical next steps and things already in motion.

Between sessions, life continues.

You'll have simple practices, tiny ceremonies or experiments to support what we're exploring.

Nothing elaborate. Nothing designed to turn your life into a full-time self-improvement project.

This isn't a six-session coaching script.
The Apprenticeship is responsive by design. There is a structure beneath the work, but we follow what actually needs your attention. We may work with your Archetype Chart, follow something that emerges in conversation, return to a pattern we've noticed, or discover that the real question isn't the one you arrived with. More than 16 years of coaching experience allows me to hold the structure without requiring you to fit yourself into it.

Not a predetermined answer. A direction that is genuinely yours.

You do not
need to be
in constant
process.

There is a point where endlessly analysing yourself, healing yourself, fixing yourself and trying to understand yourself becomes another exhausting way to live.

The Midlife Apprenticeship is not about making your life one long personal development project.

We do the inner work where it is useful.

Then we take it back into life.

Make something. Go somewhere. Learn. Laugh. Move your body. Meet someone interesting. Have the conversation. Apply for the thing. Spend time outside. Change your mind. Try again.

The point isn't to become better at working on yourself.

The point is to get back to living.

What could be different
12 weeks from now?

I can't promise you'll have your entire life figured out.

That's not the point.

But you might be able to say:

I know what I'm moving towards.

I've made the decision I've been avoiding.

I've started testing something new.

I understand why the old version of my life doesn't fit anymore.

I'm making, learning, moving and participating in my life again.

I feel curious about my future.

Not a perfectly resolved life.

A life in motion.

MEET REBECCAH

Hello. I’m Rebeccah.
I've spent most of my working life asking people what comes next.

I moved formally into agency recruitment in 2008 and began my professional coaching studies in 2009. Since then, I've worked across recruitment, career coaching and outplacement, supporting people at both ends of the employment relationship: finding work that fits, and finding their way again when work ends.

I've continued training across life, career, executive and business coaching, behavioural profiling, positive psychology and transformational practice. Since 2016, my work has also explored the psychology of archetypes, influenced by Carl Jung's work on archetypes and individuation.

I've built businesses and communities, led teams and, as CEO and Licensee of TEDxMornington, helped people uncover ideas that mattered to them and bring them into the world.

I've also had to live this work.

I've bought a business and watched it end. I've experienced what happens when work, identity, security and the future you thought you were building are suddenly called into question.

And as a Gen Xer, I've spent a lifetime pivoting as certainty become uncertain: recessions and financial crises, the dot-com boom and bust, Y2K, 9/11, extraordinary technological change, COVID lockdowns (in Melbourne!), and now the rapid rise of AI and robotics.

I've watched jobs change and industries transform, and I've lived it myself. I've had more jobs, roles and reinventions than I can fit on LinkedIn.

I've moved between industries, learned new skills, built things, left things, started again and repeatedly discovered that very little of what we learn belongs to only one job.

We carry far more of ourselves forward than we realise.

It has made me far less interested in preparing people for a predictable future.

I'm interested in helping people know themselves well enough to meet an unpredictable one.

My relationship with nature, plants and contemplative practice brings another dimension to that work: intuition, symbolism, the body and the quieter ways we sometimes know before we can explain why.

I hold that alongside, rather than instead of, practical thinking.

Today I bring those worlds together: professional coaching, careers and outplacement, archetypal psychology, somatic integration, nature, intuition and real-world experimentation.

I don't believe I'm the expert on your life.

We look. We listen. We adjust. We find out.

I'm not standing outside Wild Kin teaching its philosophy.

I'm one of its students.

Your first step is simply to begin.
Once you're in, we'll take care of what happens next together.

Questions before you begin?

  • No. That's rather the point.

    You might arrive with a very clear question, or simply know that something doesn't fit anymore. We begin with where you actually are and explore from there.

  • Yes, and more than that.

    Career is often part of the conversation, but work doesn't exist separately from identity, relationships, parenthood, health, creativity, ageing, loss, money or the way you want to live.

    If career is the doorway, we'll start there. We don't have to stay there.

  • No. The Midlife Apprenticeship is coaching and developmental work, not psychotherapy or mental health treatment.

    We may explore patterns, emotions, identity and what you're noticing in your body, but the focus is on understanding what is happening now and experimenting with what comes next.

  • Your Archetype Chart gives us another lens through which to explore the patterns, roles and ways of being that may be active across different areas of your life.

    My approach is informed by the psychology of archetypes and Carl Jung's work on individuation, alongside the archetypal frameworks I've worked with since 2016.

    You don't need any previous knowledge of archetypes.

  • Sometimes we understand something intellectually long before our behaviour, relationships or body catch up.

    Somatic integration brings attention to what you're noticing physically and emotionally, helping insight become something you can actually work with in everyday life.

  • Nothing elaborate.

    A tiny ceremony is simply an ordinary action given intention: making something, walking somewhere, lighting a candle, writing something down, returning something to the earth, changing a routine or marking a decision.

    The practice fits into your life. Your life doesn't have to reorganise itself around the practice.

  • There is no pile of homework.

    You may choose to try an experiment, make something, visit somewhere, have a conversation, research an idea or simply notice what happens differently during your ordinary week.

    The apprenticeship happens in your life, not instead of it.

  • No.

    There is room here for intuition, symbolism, nature and spirituality, but you don't need to believe anything in particular.

    Curiosity is enough.

  • No.

    The Midlife Apprenticeship is for adults. My audience may naturally include many women, but the work itself is not gender-specific.

  • Your six sessions are designed to be completed within 8 weeks, giving us enough continuity while still allowing life to happen.

    You can reschedule up to two sessions with appropriate notice.

  • The Midlife Apprenticeship is delivered and invoiced as Career Coaching, and you will receive a tax invoice describing the service accordingly.

    Depending on your circumstances, career coaching or professional development expenses may be deductible where there is a sufficient connection to your current income-earning activities, such as maintaining or improving skills or knowledge used in your current work.

    Eligibility is individual, so please check with your accountant or tax adviser before claiming.

You don't need to know who you're becoming before you begin.


That's what the apprenticeship is for.
