In my Retirement Coaching focus, I use a blended approach of training, coaching and travel as tools to offer guidance, support and inspiration for managing the non-financial challenges inherent in the retirement transition process.
You are in the right place if you are a pre- or recent retiree (approximately -5 years to + 5 years)
Navigating milestones laden with endings, uncertainty, and new beginnings
Filled with the desire and energy to engage in personal and professional rediscovery
Reassessing your priorities – re-focusing and realigning with what is most important now
Using your curiosity, vision and time to create the change you want to bring to your life
Where our 1:1 coaching/group training focuses on you and your relationships to topics such as:
Retirement change processes, implications for well-being, and assessing readiness
Preparation for/adjustment to new skills and roles for bridge jobs or entrepreneurship
The impact of your surroundings on your perspective, attitude, behaviors and beliefs
The criticality of support systems and the role they play in your life’s next adventure
Increasing awareness, embracing the shift, accepting responsibility for choices/actions
Planning for/integrating into a new geographic location (a physical family move with personal, professional, social, practical everyday implications)
During retreat you will engage with global communities and experience their cultures, traditions and lands to further explore your own:
Relationships (personal leadership; shifts in self and interpersonal/group dynamics)
Social support and belonging (shared connection, family, community integration)
Identity (defining yourself in relation to who, what and the work that surrounds you)
Life and work purpose (what drives you now; what is different than before)
Cultural learning and adjustment (geographic, social and environmental factors)
Earning executive, travel, retreat and retirement life coaching certifications has been a natural evolution in my career path and enhancement to my nomadic life. I have moved over two dozen times, lived on four continents, and enjoyed a variety of fulfilling military (Go Air Force!) and follow-on civilian roles in operations, instruction and leadership. While I’m no stranger to fast-paced environments requiring time-critical decisions, I’ve come to embrace the personal growth and learning afforded by organically emergent and purposeful processes.
I started Suntima Consulting as vehicle to bring Retirement Transition Assistance products and services to clients from – well, wherever I am whether it be the Alps, a beach in the Med, or camping in Durango. My coaching style is grounded in positive psychology and informed by 25+ years training, facilitating and consulting. Though I’m process driven, I welcome and encourage bold curiosity, intense bravery, a sense of humor, and creativity that colors outside the lines.
