Epoch Discovery Coaching

Hi! I'm Mary Lee Gannon, ACC, CAE

I show people in their 40s, 50s, and 60s how to position your unique natural ability to be relevant, connected in your relationships, and reorient to life beyond your previous role. You may get promoted, go back to work, get a new role, retire, or do something new! When "What's next?" is the only question that matters. I help you get the promotion, address a career transition, navigate divorce or grief, or dance into retirement.

The 'Will I Be Content in Retirement?' Checklist

Epoch

Discovery Coaching

Hi there!

I'm Mary Lee Gannon

This is where I show professionals in their 50s, 60s and 70s how to position your unique genius to be strong in your career, connected in your relationships and reorient to life beyond your corporate role.

How will I transition into the next phase of life? Will I be happy?

One of the hardest things about any transition such as moving from corporate leadership to a new career, starting a business, or even thinking about retirement is reorientation and establishing purpose.

This is when you start asking the hard questions, relearning what does and doesn't work for you, so you can get the most out of this new phase of your life.

You get your personal, emotional, geographical and financial plans in sync. Yet, even for those who plan well for their 40s, 50s, and 60s, and find a new role, start a business, or retire this next phase of life can be scary and disappointing once you get there. Often you've lost connection and identity.

That’s where I help. I show you how to move past the impediments to your fulfillment and build the heart centered life you want.

I'm Not Sure I Want to Retire or What It Will Be Like

You're approaching retirement and not sure about it. I hear this a lot from dedicated leaders and senior executives.

😕 You're not quite sure when you will announce it. You don't want colleagues to think you are obsolete.

😕 You aren't even sure if you want to retire because you're not sure what you will do with your time.

😕 You're not sure if you have enough saved.

😕 You've had an effective leadership role, and you'll miss the purposeful work you are doing - bringing value where it is needed.

😕 Your identity is tied to your role and you're not sure who you are without it. Will you lose your value? Feel older quickly?

It's a 3 Step Process!

1. Reorientation & Purpose

Unravel the tension of the situation. It is not all about finances and finding a new role.

See how your values and beliefs influence your decisions.

Take back power over assumptions that don't serve you so you can activate personal practices that do.

You may start a business, find a new role, or retire to something completely new.

2. Identity & Connection

Let go of the image you have of yourself in previous roles so you can discover who you are in any situation.

Recognize family dynamics and their effect.

Draw healthy boundaries around your time and newly discovered interests and connections.

You get really excited about the possibilities!

3. Ideal Day

Not sure what that looks like? No problem. By the time you are in the third step you will.

There are no limits to your Ideal Day. You could pursue a new career role with your transferable skills, volunteer, travel, start a creative project, sing, dance, or something you haven't even thought of yet. (Yes!)

Ease has come your way. Your purpose is evident in everything you do.

I show productive people who want to change careers or may be approaching retirement how to show up at their best, discover their specific purpose, and rediscover their true identity in this Epoch phase of their lives so they can live happier lives, get better roles or explore something new, and enjoy better relationships with the people who matter. Your identity is not tied to your existing or previous role. It is tied to your core. Let’s rediscover what is there.
