Contribution, Inspiration and Making a Difference are 3 of my core values. One way I live these values is to offer you a completely free introductory coaching session. Free of cost. Free of obligation. In this session you will learn what coaching is, how it works, the structure of a series and how it feels. You will also develop in the session some goals that inspire and excite you. It’s my gift to you. Then, if you choose to pursue those goals with me, they will become the focus of our work together.

To book your FREE Coaching Session:


Call 04 293 8050 or 027 690 6065, or email maree@careerandlifecoaching.co.nz

You can also book your free coaching session online.

Hello, Maree here – wishing you a warm welcome to this Article.

I refer you to the next section for Background & Credentials.

Speaking broadly, the future is full of discoveries & possibilities to do something else.

When you’re thinking about changing any aspect of your life, large or small, some key questions for you to consider are below:

  • Where are you at now?
  • Where will you be 7, 14 or 21 years down the road?
  • What will you want?
  • What will be your priorities and what will they mean to you?
  • How might your wants & priorities change over time?
  • How will you get there?

You might have planned the financial aspects of your retirement, i.e. your income & investments, but have you spent time thoughtfully planning and changing your lifestyle?

Lifestyle includes (in no particular order):


 Work Career Sport
 Family Friends Relatives
 Spirituality Relaxation Lifestyle Balance
 Finances Travel Qualifications
 Challenges Dreams Passions
 Fun! Myself Me-Time
 Diet Exercise Health
 Partner/Relationship Love Romance
 Children Siblings Home Environment
 Recreation/Hobbies/Creativity

How will you get there?
