Change & Transition

Business Strategy

What is CHANGE & transition coaching?

Change is an inevitable part of life, but navigating it isn’t always easy. Transition is the internal process we go through when circumstances shift — whether in our personal life, career, relationships, or sense of identity. Even positive change can feel overwhelming when it disrupts our routine, challenges our confidence, or brings uncertainty about the future

Types of Change & Transition

Change takes many forms and can impact anyone, at any stage of life or work. You may be experiencing:

  • Career change, promotion, or redundancy

  • Relocation or lifestyle shifts

  • Business or organisational change

  • Returning to work after time away

  • Relationship changes or divorce

  • Identity exploration or personal growth

  • Family changes, including parenthood or caring responsibilities

  • Stepping into leadership or taking on new responsibility

  • Health changes, illness, or diagnosis

  • Bereavement, loss, or life reset moments

What Are the Common Signs of Struggling with Change?

When change impacts your emotional and mental wellbeing, you might experience:

  • Feeling overwhelmed or ‘stuck’

  • Increased anxiety or worry about the future

  • Loss of clarity or direction

  • Procrastination and avoidance

  • Low motivation or fatigue

  • Difficulty making decisions

  • Frustration or irritability

  • Imposter syndrome or self-doubt

  • Feeling disconnected from yourself or others

  • Decline in confidence or self-belief

Why Change Can Feel Difficult

Change challenges our sense of stability and identity. It can trigger uncertainty, fear of the unknown, or doubts about whether we’re making the right choices. Transition asks us to let go of what is familiar before we fully know what comes next — and that emotional gap can sometimes feel uncomfortable or unsettling.
