For women nearing the age of 50 and beyond, life changes can leave you feeling uncertain and stuck—here’s how Coach Natalie Rudd can get you back on track
By Mary Malik
Coach Natalie Rudd is a certified professional lifestyle and business coach, registered nurse and licensed minister working with clients “in their fifth decade and beyond.” They are preparing for the next chapter in life, perhaps feeling stuck between what was and what’s to come and unclear about the next step forward.
“The fifth decade and beyond can be a challenging time, when physical and emotional changes can cause feelings of uncertainty, doubt and fear,” Natalie says. “Along with guidance and encouragement, I outline a path forward to help you not just take that next step, but also to understand why you’re stuck, realize your potential and achieve your dreams.”
Maybe you want to start a business, get a promotion, lose weight, write a book, grow in your spiritual life or improve your relationships. Natalie helps you discover what stands in the way of where you want to be and overcome those obstacles.
“Through consistency, accountability and structure, my Unstuck Formula™ will show you the way,” Natalie says.
Women often have regrets over what they didn’t do, fear about what comes next and anxiety because time is fleeting. It’s these emotions that work as barriers and keep them feeling stuck.
“Another barrier is internal and external expectations,” Natalie says. “We feel pressure about where we are, where we think we should be and don’t want to disappoint anyone. I give women permission to get past emotions and expectations, say yes to their dreams, yes to themselves, and find their God-given purpose.”
Coach Natalie teaches clients her TEA+W™ method to tackle every moment of doubt.
“It helps to remember the analogy that Thoughts, Emotions and Actions are the ‘TEA’ and the W represents ‘Words’ or the ‘Water’ in the tea that brings out all the flavor,” Natalie says. “What we think, feel and do are critical and words have immense power. Combine them positively and be unstoppable in any situation.”
Natalie recalls how her parents sacrificed for her to go to college, something she was told as a child was not in her future.
“I had a nun in ninth grade tell me I ‘wasn’t college material,’” Natalie says. “She said I should take clerical courses, not college prep. My parents refused to accept that. They taught me to fight for my dreams and never let someone else determine my path.”
After graduating college, Natalie achieved great success in her corporate career, but something was missing. With her faith never far from her mind, she earned a graduate degree in theology and later became a spiritual growth and health coach, and walked away from corporate life. She started her coaching business full-time, but fear, doubt and uncertainty crept in.
“I got stuck,” Natalie says. “I missed the security of my old life, so I went back to the corporate world and was miserable. I then had a debilitating stroke. You can’t have a life-altering event like this and not change.”
After months of recovery, Natalie had the courage to walk in her purpose. Free from fear and regret, she knew she could empower other women experiencing that stuck feeling to overcome obstacles, reinvent themselves and achieve their goals.
Here's a testimonial from a happy client:
Coach Natalie’s program is unique because not only does she help you get to the core of what is keeping you stuck, but she also provides a true and tried process that will show you how to take the necessary steps to get unstuck. If you’re like me and need help, a boost, a fresh start, or to become unstuck, I highly recommend Coach Natalie.” —Melissa
