House of Midlife Exploration
Stop overthinking and find calm, clarity and fresh direction
Midlife can feel like a tunnel. It's busy and relentless. You're juggling work and family responsibilities. Every day, you keep moving forward, head down, waiting for things to ease up.
And yet, every day, it feels heavy and narrow. In all the rushing, most people never notice the hidden door in the tunnel wall.
But if you pause and open it, you step into something unexpected: a vast, light-filled hall like the Turbine Hall at the Tate Modern or the atrium of a grand mansion.
The air feels different. The scale invites you to slow down. Your shoulders drop. Your curiosity awakens.
You realise you're no longer in survival mode: you're in a space of possibility.
This is exactly the feeling I've created with H.O.M.E: the House of Midlife Exploration.
Who this is for
This is for you if:
- You're 35-65 and feel "stuck in the tunnel"
- You've lost the spark that used to make work feel exciting (or at least bearable)
- You feel anxious about the future (AI, layoffs, irrelevance - take your pick)
- You want clarity about who you're becoming and how to move forward
- You're at a crossroads and curious enough to try something different
This isn't about blowing up your life. It's about getting clear on what needs to shift, so you can stop feeling stuck in a loop, and finally start moving.
What you'll come away with
Relief, clarity and fresh possibility
Over 4 guided conversations over 4-6 weeks, you'll:
- Hit pause and take stock - properly
- Spot the stories and blindspots that keep you stuck
- Reconnect to the version of who knows what you want
- Start taking some experimental steps towards something new
- Leave with renewed clarity, energy and focus
As your H.O.M.E. guide, I'll wear a number of hats: sounding board, creative thinking partner, 'empathetic provocateur' (supporting and challenging you in equal measure), and accountability buddy - helping you actually do the things you say you want to do.
What previous clients say
Kenny Fox
Research Director, davies + mckerr
"I worked with Andrew when the self-critical voice in my head suddenly found a megaphone. He made me realise that these thoughts were just that, thoughts, and gave me the tools to understand them.
I'm without doubt more confident in my job and life, which I put down to working with Andrew."
Paul Thompson
MD, Media Performance
"I found working with Andrew... unexpectedly annoying - in the best possible way (he’ll know what I mean).
I'd often enter our sessions unsure where to begin, yet an hour later, I’d realise I’d done most of the talking. Through subtle prompts and thoughtful nudges, he has a way of drawing out exactly what needs to surface. I always left our conversations feeling lighter, clearer, and more energised."
Chloe Fowler
Founder at The Nest Research
"I started working with Andrew as I made the decision to step down from owning a successful research agency and go it alone.
My sessions were so helpful. Andrew shifted his style to suit my needs – from coach, to mentor, to creative collaborator, to cheerleader, to kind critic. I've gone from being clueless to having a brand, a vision, a website, a strategy. Ultimately, he's helped with the thing I needed to discover the most – my story."
James Engel
Account Director, B2B advertising
"I spent ten, one-hour sessions talking to Andrew following an agency closure and subsequent redundancy. Having never had any 1:1 support before I was anxious about the process, how I would respond and whether I would benefit.
I instantly felt at ease with his calm, approachable and friendly manner. Together we worked through what I wanted next and how to achieve it. Andrew explained how my mind was working through this process and importantly shared tools to deal with negative or overwhelming mental obstacles, enabling me to focus on the end goal."Emily Larkin
Head of Employer Brand at the BBC
"Andrew provided invaluable support to my overthinking mind, as I navigated a recent career transition and landed in a new role.
I always left the sessions with a renewed sense of calm and connection to my instincts.
I would recommend to anyone who could benefit from a regular break from a busy head, in a relaxed, grounded, and entirely non-judgemental space."
Lucy Sanderson
Creative Copywriter
"Having Andrew there to coach me through quite a transitional stage in my professional life has been a brilliant experience.
As someone with a head that’s constantly bubbling with thoughts, ideas (and yes, maybe the odd anxiety here and there) having access to a sounding board that is both experienced and impartial is really valuable.
While unpacking everything sometimes felt a bit like the Mary Poppins bag trick, Andy patiently listened, helping to bring structure and sense to it all. As a result, I find myself with more confidence and direction in my career – two things every creative longs for."Why I created H.O.M.E.
10 years ago, I left my full-time job in advertising. I was exhausted, stressed and stuck. My heart wasn't in it anymore.
What followed was a decade of inner work, starting my own business and writing 'The Overthinker's Guide to Life'.
H.O.M.E. is the integration of that journey. It's a space I've created to help others make their own midlife transition - to pause, reflect and create their own next chapter with clarity and confidence.
My credentials include 8 years' experience as a professional coach. I've worked with clients in senior roles in organisations such as GE Healthcare, John Lewis, HSBC, Viatris, Roche, as well as a range of creative, insight and design agencies.
Qualifications: MSc Psychology (Distinction), PG Certificate in Business and Personal Coaching, BSc Health Studies, plus membership of the International Coaching Federation.Your invitation

The only question is, will you step through it?
