I’ve had the pleasure of visiting Karen in person many times, and every visit feels as magical as the first. It’s more than just a meeting. It’s an experience that instantly soothes the soul, like stepping into a different, more peaceful world.

Working with Karen was a turning point in my life. I used to feel like I had to choose between my spiritual growth and my material success, and that conflict left me feeling empty. Karen helped me see that true balance comes from embracing all parts of myself—emotional, physical, and spiritual.

Now, I feel more aligned and at peace than ever before.

Rethink Midlife had me feeling lost, like I was just going through the motions without true fulfillment. Karen helped me break free from that mindset and reconnect with what truly matters to me. Her program gave me practical tools to make small but powerful changes, and now, I feel more confident and in tune with my purpose.

I was stuck in a cycle of overthinking, always searching for the 'why' behind my feelings. Karen’s approach showed me that self-awareness isn’t about finding one single answer but about tuning into my intuition and embracing each part of my life. Through her guidance, I learned to trust myself, and that has made all the difference.

Midlife Transformation with Karen Gowans

I’m Karen Gowans, the founder of Rethink Midlife. I’m a retired global technology consultant, mother, ex-wife, daughter, sister, friend, and martial artist. My own journey through midlife has been a powerful transformation, and I’ve turned that experience into a mission to empower others. Through navigating career changes, personal shifts, and deep self-discovery, I recognized the need for a space where both men and women could approach midlife with confidence and clarity.
 

With a blend of structured online courses and personalized 1:1 mentoring, I offer compassionate guidance and practical tools to help you embrace this transformative stage with renewed purpose. My approach fosters growth, healing, and a vibrant sense of self. I also curate immersive, women-only retreats around the world, providing deeply enriching experiences for those seeking renewal, connection, and a fresh perspective.
