I’m Meggi Rombach
Transition and leadership coach for midlife leaders.
Helping you break your old success script and design a next chapter on your terms.
Your life. Your rules.
For more freedom, flow, and fun.
Lifestyle Design
You want a life that fits who you are now – not a life shaped by overdelivering, always saying yes, and living by someone else’s script.
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 sets the foundation for a focused and intentional next chapter, especially if you’re in a “golden‑cage” role you’re not ready to burn down.
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 this stage of your life.
Whether you’re shifting roles, changing sectors, or stepping up, down, or sideways, I’ll help you get clear on what’s next – and what actually fits.
We’ll refine your career strategy, mindset, communication, and personal brand – so you can move forward with clarity, confidence and courage, without burning down the work you still care about.

Upcoming: Designing 2026 –
Without the Old Success Script
Free 1-hour lunchtime Zoom workshop for midlife leaders, executives and founders (around 40–60) who are exhausted by how they work, not by the idea of work itself.
We’ll pause, listen to your intuition, use simple tools from neuroscience and sophrology to get out of your head and back into your body, and define one meaningful focus and one small, intentional next step for 2026 – by your rules
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, breaking old success scripts, 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, mindset work, and somatic/experiential tools – all tailored to support your unique path forward as a midlife leader.
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 mid‑ to senior‑level leaders, executives, founders and experts (roughly 40–60) who want a way to live, lead, and work that feels true to them – not just impressive on paper.
You’ve built a career around purpose, service, and solving complex problems – in global companies, international organisations, or mission‑driven environments. You’ve often put mission first and your own needs second.
And now, something is shifting.
You might be:
- Feeling the weight of exhaustion, 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 don’t disappear with a new job title or a different organisation.
This work is for those ready to stop, reflect, and design the next chapter with clarity, courage, and intention.
How We Can Work Together
I’m building something big, bold, and different – an experiential Basecamp Bootcamp for midlife leaders and changemakers at a crossroads. While I’m creating this adventure, I’m only taking on a limited number of new coachees for 3‑month packages.
I’m also offering power‑hour workshops for individuals and organisations – practical, focused sessions to sharpen skills and spark change.
And yes, the Bootcamp is coming: an exclusive 3‑month experiential journey (with follow‑on options) that brings together leadership training, coaching, peer exchange, and outdoor challenges. Think Everest Basecamp for your career and life: resetting your compass and gearing up for your next move. That’s the spirit.
In the meantime, three ways to work with me:
3-Month Coaching Packages
Limited availability, high‑impact focus for midlife leaders and professionals at a crossroads.
Workshops & Power Hours
Hands‑on leadership and career tools for teams or individuals.
Leadership Bootcamp (Adventure Coming Soon)
Small‑group, experiential, agile, exclusive – for midlife leaders ready to break their old success script and design what’s next.
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 seen both corporate golden cages and purpose cages from the inside: high performance, strong mission, and quiet exhaustion.
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.
