WORK WITH JANINE

Your next chapter
deserves a roadmap.

A private session, a talk, or a workshop – choose the way you want to begin.

For Individuals
For Organisations
For Communities
Every transition is different. Every person arrives at this crossroads with a different history, a different set of pressures, and a different vision of what comes next.
What does not differ is the need for a roadmap. For honest, structured, practical guidance – not generic encouragement, but a framework built around who you are and what you need.
There are three ways to work with Janine: one for individuals navigating their own transition, one for organisations preparing their people for one of the most significant changes of a professional life, and one for communities coming to this stage of life together.

FOR INDIVIDUALS

Private guidance session

You have spent decades being competent, capable, and in demand. You are not looking for a pep talk or a motivational poster. You are looking for a structured, intelligent conversation about what comes next – and how to approach it with clarity, dignity, and purpose.
That is exactly what a private session with Janine offers.

R850 per 60-minute private session

Sessions are available via video call or, where practical, in person in the Western Cape.

 

Ready to talk? Send an enquiry and Janine will be in touch within two business days to confirm your session and discuss what you would like to focus on.

Enquire about a private session

Who this is for:

  • Professionals approaching retirement who want to prepare emotionally as well as financially.
  • Retirees in the first one to three years who are navigating the messy middle and need structured support.
  • Professionals who have experienced retrenchment, career-ending injury, or sudden lifestyle change and are rebuilding.
  • Spouses or family members of retirees who want to understand and support the transition.

FOR ORGANISATIONS

Preparing your people for the transition beyond work.

Your organisation may have financial retirement planning covered. You may have HR processes for exit, wellness programmes and leadership development. But what many organisations do not address is the psychological and identity transition that happens when a senior professional leaves.
That gap matters – to the individual, to the team, and to the organisation.

The organisational cost of an unmanaged transition:

  • Reduced engagement during the final months of employment, as attention shifts toward life after the organisation.
  • Loss of institutional knowledge and wisdom that has not been properly transferred.
  • Negative alumni sentiment that can affect employer brand and future recruitment.
  • Emotional fallout among remaining teams who witness difficult or undignified exits.
  • Missed opportunities to draw on the experience, relationships and networks of departing leaders.
Preparing senior professionals emotionally and psychologically for the transition out of role-based identity can help organisations protect their employer brand, strengthen alumni relationships, and honour the leadership legacy of the people who built the organisation.

Who this is for:

  • Retirement transition talks.
  • Interactive workshops.
  • Senior leadership transition sessions.
  • Pre-retirement programmes.
  • Bespoke sessions tailored to your organisation.

What makes this different:

  • Positioned as transition strategy rather than retirement leisure planning.
  • Speaks the language of high performers – addressing status, relevance, identity and legacy.
  • Grounded in research, lived experience, and formal coaching methodology.
  • Complements, rather than competes with, existing financial retirement planning programmes.
  • Available in English and Afrikaans.

FOR COMMUNITIES

Talks and workshops for groups

Not every audience is a boardroom. Some of the most meaningful conversations about ageing, purpose, and what comes next happen in a community hall, a church, a retirement village, or around a table with people who are navigating the same transition.

Janine offers talks and workshops for community and faith groups, retirement villages, senior living communities, clubs, and support networks – bringing the same honest, practical framework behind No Expiry Date Living to audiences who are navigating this stage of life together, not alone.

Tell us a bit about your group and what you are hoping for, and Janine will be in touch to discuss options.

Who this is for:

  • Retirement villages and senior living communities.
  • Churches and other faith groups.
  • Community centres, clubs and support groups.
  • Family and caregiver groups supporting someone in transition.
Available in English and Afrikaans.

Frequently asked questions

Do I need to have read the book before a session?

Not at all – though many clients find it a useful starting point. If you have not read it yet, Janine will work from wherever you are.

Yes. Janine is a native Afrikaans speaker and offers sessions, talks and workshops in both English and Afrikaans. Please indicate your preference when you make your enquiry.
This varies depending on where you are in your transition and what you are hoping to work through. Some clients find one session provides the clarity and direction they need. Others choose to continue for several sessions over a period of months. There is no prescribed programme – the work is shaped around you.
Absolutely. In fact, preparing before retirement is one of the most valuable things you can do. You do not have to wait until your final year of employment to start thinking about what comes next.
Yes. Janine is available for events nationally. Travel and accommodation costs are covered by the client organisation. Please include your location and dates in your enquiry.
A private 60-minute session costs R850. Talk and workshop pricing depends on group size, format and requirements. Contact Janine to discuss your needs.
It is guidance – structured, forward-facing, and grounded in your strengths and goals. It is not therapy, and it does not treat clinical mental health conditions. If Janine believes a client would benefit from additional professional support, she will say so directly and supportively.

NOT READY FOR A SESSION?

Start with the roadmap.

The Retirement Roadmap is a place to begin – whether retirement is five years away, five months away, or already behind you.
The book covers the emotional reality of transition, the lifequake that can follow the end of a career, and the work of designing a purposeful, connected, vital third act. It is honest, practical, and written by someone who has been exactly where you are.
