I’m Meggi Rombach
Lifestyle Architect & Transition Coach
I help midlife leaders design careers and lives that fit who they are — not the scripts they’ve been handed.
Your life. Your rules.
For more freedom, flow, and fun.
Lifestyle Design
You want a life that fits who you are now — a life that isn’t shaped by overdelivering or always saying yes.
It’s time to create a rhythm that supports both your life and your career. One that lets you contribute meaningfully — without constantly running on empty.
We’ll work on your energy, priorities, and boundaries — so you can lead and live with more balance. This is what sets the foundation for a focused and intentional next chapter.
Career Building
You’ve outgrown the traditional career script chasing titles, climbing ladders, meeting others’ expectations.
Now you want a career that fits your values, leadership style, and life on your terms.
Whether you’re shifting roles, changing sectors, or stepping up, down, or sideways, I’ll help you get clear on what’s next.
We’ll refine your career strategy, mindset, communication, and personal brand — so you can move forward with clarity, confidence and courage.

Why Career Strategy & Transition Coaching?
Because even the most capable professionals reach a moment when they stop and ask:
Is this still the path I want to be on?
That’s where career strategy and transition coaching come in — to support you in closing one chapter with intention and stepping into the next with clarity.
It’s not just about finding your next job.
It’s about realigning with what matters now, exploring what’s possible, and setting a long-term vision for how you want to live, work, and lead.
I bring my full toolbox to the table: systems thinking, strategic planning, career development insight, mindfulness, and mindset work — all tailored to support your unique path forward.
Whether you’re navigating change, recovering from burnout, or ready to lead differently, this work helps you clarify your next step and build it with purpose.
Together, we’ll design what’s next — grounded in clarity, courage, and a vision that feels truly yours.
Who Is This For?
This is for changemakers and purpose-led professionals who are yearning for something different — a way to live, lead, and work that feels true to them, not just impressive on paper.
You’re likely a mid- to senior-level expert, manager, or leader who’s built a career around purpose, service, and solving complex problems. You’ve worked across sectors, geographies, and systems, often putting mission first and your needs second.
And now, something is shifting.
You might be:
-
Feeling the weight of burnout, chronic stress, or uncertainty, wondering how much longer you can sustain this pace
-
Questioning whether the path you’re on still aligns with who you are and what matters to you now
- Second-guessing yourself — despite decades of experience — as younger colleagues rise fast and the ground beneath you feels less certain
-
Considering a move — a new role, sector, or way of working — but unsure how to position yourself or what’s next
-
Tired of living by someone else’s script, and ready to lead, live, and work on your terms
The hard truth? If you don’t pause to look inward — to realign with your values and shift the patterns that no longer serve you — you’ll carry the same challenges into whatever comes next. Stress, self-doubt, boundary issues, and overgiving — they don’t disappear with a new job title or a different organization.
This work is for those ready to stop, reflect, and design the next chapter with clarity, courage, and intention.
The Mindset Mastery Approach
Transitions aren’t just about changing direction — they’re about how you move through the change.
Mindset Mastery is my signature coaching approach, supported by the GIFT Framework.
It blends assessments and self-reflection, neuroscience, and intentional action to help you shift not just what you do — but how you show up.
1. G – Get Clear: Identify what truly matters
We explore your values, needs, goals and priorities using reflection tools and motivational assessments.
We’ll uncover limiting beliefs and build empowering ones.
This is your compass — so every step aligns with what truly matters.
2. I – Imagine: Visualize your next chapter
Visualize your future life — at work and beyond.
We use multi-sensory visioning tools tailored to your style to shape a vivid, motivating picture of what’s next — rooted in both desire and direction.
3. F – Follow Through: Take small, intentional steps
We break goals into small, doable steps and build implementation plans, including networking strategies.
With micro-actions and habit shifts, we build momentum — one aligned step at a time.
4. T – Trust & Let Go: Embrace uncertainty with confidence
Build resilience and self-trust through mindfulness, grounding, and learning to embrace fear — not push it away.
You move forward with calm and courage, even when the path ahead isn’t yet clear.
How We Can Work Together
Not every season of life calls for the same kind of support. Choose what fits where you are:

3 Months – The Reset Sprint
For when something needs to change now
Here’s how it works
Something feels off — and you can’t afford to ignore it anymore. In this 3-month sprint, we’ll focus on what’s most urgent for you. It could be resetting after burnout, navigating the first 90 days in a new role, preparing for a big move between sectors, or simply creating space to think and breathe again.
We’ll work quickly and intentionally: clarifying what truly matters, identifying what’s draining you, setting boundaries that stick, and experimenting with habits and practices that support you.
You’ll leave with a practical plan and renewed energy — so you can start showing up differently right away.

About Me
Pause. Reconnect. Lead.
That’s not just what I teach — it’s how I live and work.
I’ve navigated many transitions — across countries, sectors, and life stages.
With over 20 years of experience in the private and humanitarian sectors — from Procter & Gamble to UNICEF and the ICRC — I’ve led global teams, built cross-sector partnerships, and managed complex organizational shifts, including post-merger integration, matrix environments, and restructurings.
It was deeply meaningful work. But like many high-achievers, I paid a price for constantly pushing: burnout, health challenges, and chronic stress eventually forced me to pause and ask what truly matters.
That pause changed everything.
I stopped chasing someone else’s version of success — and started shaping my own.
I know what it’s like when life throws you off course. And I’ve learned that whether a transition is chosen or unexpected, it’s never just external — it asks us to let go of something old to make space for something new.
This insight forms the heart of my coaching. I bring presence, depth, and calm courage to every conversation, inviting leaders and teams to pause, reconnect, and lead with intention — creating ripples that extend far beyond themselves.
I coach individuals and teams with a change‑maker’s mindset. I’m a bit of a geek for leadership tools — I’ve tried many assessments and got certified in the one that resonated most with me: MRG’s leadership assessment suite. And one of my dreams? To take this work outdoors — running workshops in nature, with horses as my co‑facilitators.
If you’re at a crossroads — or quietly sensing one — I’m here to create a space for clarity, strategy, and exploration of what’s next, on your terms.
