You’re someone who knows how to get things done.
But has your success come at the cost of your breath?
Your body?
Your creative fire?
What if the deeper accomplishment is making space for what wants to emerge?
What if it’s not about adding more, but making room for what matters most?
I guide mid-life women who are succeeding unsustainably—
toward a life that's fully their own.
One that’s built on the bedrock of spaciousness, confidence, and trust.
I’m here to meet you in the wild, holy becoming.
Where your longing isn’t a flaw,
but a flicker of what’s next.
Because the future doesn’t arrive with certainty.
It comes in glimpses.
In metaphors.
In whispers.
In callings.
From proving your worth
to protecting what brings you alive.
From over-preparation
to raw, embodied presence.
From the woman they needed you to be…
to the one you’re ready to become.
Brooke gave me the permission I needed to jump through the veil of "someone like me could never do that!".
On the other side, I learned that not only am I good enough, but I really do have gifts that are magical, that no one else (or few others) have.
So I'm going to design my life to use and grow them as much as possible.
~ Maureen
Women who work with me are often:
Successful on paper, but soul-weary
Secretly dreaming of a slower, fuller way of being
Recovering from burnout, people-pleasing, or overfunctioning
Hoping to reclaim their creative voice
Navigating career shifts, identity changes, or spiritual awakenings
Curious, wise, and quietly brave
Build your days on a bedrock of…
… your natural rhythm.
… your inner knowing.
… ease, reverence, and pleasure.
Together we’ll:
Move beyond the noise of expectations
into the quiet clarity of your own compass.
Turn mystery into a map of becoming—
not by figuring it all out,
but by learning to walk with uncertainty as an ally.
If you're tired of holding it all together,
I help you let your truth fall open.
If you saw my clients out in the world…
You’d see a woman who—even from a distance—radiates a love of life. It’s in her grounded confidence, her ease, and her sensual connection to the world around her.
She laughs freely, moves with intention, and doesn’t apologize for taking up space.
Her children see what it means to live courageously. Her partner feels the electricity of her self-assurance. Her friends are inspired to step into their own truth.
She craves a village of women who understand and support her, and in turn, she becomes that village for others.
Her transformation is about so much more than just herself; it's about rewriting her family’s story, her community’s story, our collective story.
I’m Brooke Hofsess, a Midlife Midwife. I help midlife women remember who they are—and create what comes next.
I offer coaching and mentorship to support you as you:
Reclaim your creativity and playfulness.
Explore identity shifts with grace.
Make career and life changes from a place of deep self-knowing.
Live into your second bite with purpose, beauty, and permission.
Midlife suffering isn’t in the change itself—it’s in our resistance to it.
Surrendering to this season of life is what turns midlife into a powerful moment of becoming.
Tell me if this resonates…
There’s a part of you that knows how resourceful, vibrant, and independent you are—which makes it all the more confusing when you can’t figure out what’s next.
You’re picking up on signals (boredom, resentment, overwhelm), but it feels like your radio must be tuned to the wrong frequency.
I’m here to help you interpret the messages midlife is revealing, so you can finally hear—and respond to—what’s calling you forward.
Together, we’ll shatter the myth that the “midlife crisis” is a personal failing.
It’s not your fault—it’s a collective awakening. And beyond that… What if it’s not a struggle at all?
Imagine this…
Opportunities start flowing your way, where you once felt invisible.
Your relationship with your kids feels lighter, more playful, more connected.
You wake up feeling a quiet excitement for the day ahead, no longer dragging yourself out of bed.
You speak your truth with clarity—no second-guessing, no holding back—and it feels like freedom.
