Extraordinary By Design Menopause & Life Transition Coach | Cobourg
Helping high-achieving women navigate burnout, menopause, and life transitions.

Reconnect to yourself and move forward on your own terms. Discover Your Guiding Pillar Quiz : https://bit.ly/guiding-pillar-quiz I work with high-achieving women navigating menopause, burnout, and life transitions. For many, there comes a moment where what once worked no longer feels aligned. The pace, the pressure, the expectations… it all begins to catch up. This is a space to slow down, listen within, and reconnect to yourself. Through 1:1 and group experiences, I guide you back to what feels true, grounded, and aligned so you can move forward on your own terms.

When the quiet feels heavy, that's when you know something's stirring inside.

For nine months after I left corporate I filled every quiet moment I could find. A full schedule. Constant doing. Anything to avoid sitting inside the feeling that was waiting for me.

The feeling of grief alongside a sense of loss of self.

I wasn't just grieving leaving a career, I was grieving the realization that the relationships I had poured thirty-eight years into were transactional. When I was no longer useful, I was no longer visible. No calls. No messages. No thinking of you.

Just silence.

In the silence I had to face something I had been avoiding for a while.

I didn't know who I was outside of what I did for other people.

I had been somebody's answer, somebody's solution, somebody's everything for so long that when all of that was gone, I couldn't answer the simplest questions about myself.

What do I enjoy? What brings me joy? What do I actually want?

It took me over a year to begin to answer those questions honestly.

The only way through it was to stop running from the quiet and start leaning into it and listening to it.

The quiet isn't the enemy (even though at times it feels like it). It's where everything you have been carrying finally gets to be set down and released.

The best part, you don't have to do it alone. I wish I had someone there for me when I needed it the most.

That's exactly why I do the work I do. To help women move through the heaviness, the loneliness and the grief of the identities they have been holding onto for so long.

To help them learn to have fun again. To reignite the passion that lights up every part of their life. To find real connection. To build boundaries that actually protect them. And to develop the tools to understand what their mind and body are asking for.

To find ease in their everyday. Life was meant to be enjoyed every step of the way. Let me guide you towards finiding the ease in your life.

If the quiet feels heavy for you right now, DM me RESET and let's talk about what support looks like for you.

Episode 3 next Tuesday. The Moment I Chose Me. 🤍

Extraordinarily, Tracey.

Happy Tackling Tuesday. Episode 1 of 4.

The things nobody warned me about.

Nobody warns you that burnout doesn't end the day you walk away from the thing that caused it.

Most women think a couple of weeks of vacation will fix it. I'm here to tell you It only eases the surface. It never touches the depth.

In my own experience what actually happens when there's nothing left to give, the body eventually takes the decision out of your hands.

The chest gets tight. The breath gets hard. You find yourself having to speak louder and more aggressively just to be heard in the room.

Until one day something inside you quietly says — nope. You need a break.

Not a vacation. A real stop.

The fog. The indecision. The vision that once felt so clear suddenly feeling just out of reach. The doing without focus. The guilt of not being able to show up the way you used to.

That's not failure. That's your body and mind slowly learning that the emergency is over.

Studies say full recovery from deep burnout can take up to three years.

Three years!

Most women spend that time thinking something's wrong with them.

Hear me say this, NOTHING is wrong with you. You are unwinding. And the unwinding takes as long as it takes for you.

If this is where you are right now, the quiet that doesn't feel like peace, the fire that has gone quieter but not out — I want you to know you don't have to figure this out alone.

That is exactly why I built Extraordinary by Design.

DM me RESET and let's talk about what support actually looks like for you right now.

Episode 2 next Tuesday. Follow so you do not miss it. 🤍

Extraordinarily, Tracey.

Some days the universe speaks twice.

This morning I found a dime in the washing machine. I stopped. Closed my eyes. Took in a breath. Said thank you to whoever was watching over me.

Tonight on my evening walk, a full rainbow stretching across the sky.

The same day.

I don't think that's a coincidence. I think when you start paying attention to the small signs the bigger ones follow.

So tell me, what are your signs? The dimes. The rainbows. The feathers. The songs that play at exactly the right moment. The number sequences that keep showing up.

Or maybe it is something in nature that stops you in your tracks and takes your breath away.

Drop it in the comments. I want to hear every single one.

Because these moments deserve to be shared.
🪙🌈

Extraordinarily, Tracey.

Just a girl and her Corvette.

Not his. Not borrowed. Not a gift.
Mine.

Bought it. Drive it. Wash it in pink sandals because why not.

If you assumed it belonged to a man there are no hard feelings. But also, why?

Never underestimate a woman in pink sandals.

This is what starting looks like.
Somewhere along the way I said yes to me, and moments like this are proof it was worth it.

Believe in you. It's worth it.

Thank you to my clients, friends, and family for supporting this leg of the journey.

September is coming. If you're ready to stop waiting and start — book a free 30-minute Clarity Conversation. Link in bio.

August was a lot.

Tackling Tuesdays that named things you'd been carrying.
A room of 1,000 women that reminded me why this work exists.
Posts that, based on your DMs and comments this month, landed somewhere specific for a lot of you.

And I want to close August the same way I try to close every month:

With an honest invitation.

Not a pitch. Not a countdown. Not a strategy.

An invitation, from the version of you that has been quietly nodding along all month, to finally stop watching from the outside.

You don't need more information.
You don't need to feel ready.
You don't need to have it figured out before you reach out.

September is the month for the woman who is done making herself wait.

Who has been almost long enough.
Who has been the strong one for long enough.
Who has been asking everyone else's version of "what do you want" for long enough.

Who is finally, quietly, ready to answer it for herself.

That woman has always been worthy.

She was born worthy.

Extraordinary by Design exists to help her remember it.

The Clarity Conversation is thirty minutes, completely free, and it's just you and me.

No performance required.
No perfect version of yourself needed.
Just the one who's here.

Link is in my bio.

I'll see you in September.

Where have you limited your ability to receive?
Ask for the help, it isn't a sign of weakness or loss of Independence.
It's a sign that you are as open to receive vs always just giving!

Be kind to yourself, life isn't meant to be all about giving and in frustration!!!

Feel the love be open to receive even when you feel the resistance. Generally that's where we have some inner work to do!

Not sure how to manage all of that? That's why I'm here.

DM me directly or comment below where you resist the ability to receive.

On September 9th, I'm joining an extraordinary panel of women for Segment 3 of the Women's Burnout Recovery Blueprint Summit — and we're talking about exactly this.

Recalibrating your nervous system.
Restoring flow.
Building sustainable energy from the inside out — not through pushing harder, but through finally working with your body instead of against it.

This is the conversation I wish someone had started with me years earlier.

The summit is completely free.

If your body has been quietly asking you to pay attention — this is the invitation to do exactly that.
