Your host
I've been where you are.
I'm Gary Allen — a Galway-based life and executive coach. After two decades in IT, I hit my own version of the "Is this it?" moment in my mid-forties. It wasn't a crisis. It was a quiet, persistent question I couldn't ignore.
In 2018 I retrained as a professional coach. Since then I've spent 4,500+ hours helping professionals navigate exactly this kind of midlife pivot — without burning their lives down to do it.
This webinar is a distilled hour of what I've learned: the reframes, the traps, and the simple Blueprint I now use with every client.

From people Gary has worked with
Lasting change, without the upheaval.
"The course was excellent from start to finish — a clear path through each week, with exercises to complete and things to work on between sessions. I'd highly recommend it to anyone who feels a little lost, who might be facing life changes, or who simply has the curiosity to explore the next bit of your life."
"Gary is an expert guide, creating a calm and creative space to explore thoughts, hopes and fears."
"The small group format promotes safety, courage and deep sharing."
"If you bring your whole heart to the experience, you will be rewarded with what you discover about yourself."
"I'm so excited for this next chapter of my life. I would highly recommend it to anyone who wants to live life on their terms."
