Leslie J Allen ​Coach, Facilitator, Mediator
You're not broken.
You're in the middle of becoming.
Somewhere between the school runs and the board meetings, between caring for your children and watching your parents age, you started wondering: Is this it?
That question isn't a crisis. It's an invitation. Midlife isn't about falling apart — it's about finally having the courage to ask what actually matters to you.
​I create space for the conversations you can't have at the dinner table. The ones about mortality, meaning, identity, and desire. The ones that feel too heavy for friends and too nuanced for a quick therapy session.
The Work
You're holding it all together — but something feels off.
You lie awake thinking about time — how fast it moves, how finite it is
​
You want to matter, not just to everyone else, but to yourself
You're craving a conversation that goes deeper than surface-level wellness advice
You're navigating perimenopause and wondering why no one warned you
You're sandwiched between children who need you and parents who are declining
You've built the career but lost yourself somewhere along the way​
No scripts. No frameworks. Just real conversation.
01
A free conversation
We start with a no-pressure call to see if this feels right. Chemistry matters.
02
Deep Listening
Through guided conversation, we uncover what's really underneath the overwhelm, the restlessness, the grief.
03
Finding your thread
Together we find the thread that connects everything — your past, your present, and what you're becoming.
What people are saying....
She was incredibly warm and welcoming and complementary. Leslie picked up on a lot of things without me being necessarily explicit about them. She talked me through the process and gave me a lot of agency of how to move forward with the coaching process, so I'm very excited!

If you are looking for support, encouragement, clarity... the will to live a daring life, that takes you to the edge of your seat and gives you everything you dream of, then fasten up your spiritual seat belt and take a chance on Leslie. More importantly, take a chance on yourself. Really, if not now, when?

I really felt like Leslie asked the right questions and listened to my answers to get at an actionable plan. It had not occurred to me how aspects of my life outside work might be affecting my satisfaction at work. I feel like she gave me a great plan for getting started in this kick-off session.

Leslie seems to take a wholistic approach to coaching, I enjoy that it's going to be interactive and there will be takeaways to continue our work. Looking forward to this process.
