It’s natural to wonder, “Now what?”
You understand Time is not limitless. You feel a strong urge to make the most of it, to live fully, to matter — to embark on the journey you may have postponed for decades. You have decisions to make, and more maturity, wisdom and self-knowledge to back you up than you’ve ever had before. Life is, in some ways, more of a mystery than ever. Welcome to the Sovereign Renaissance stage of Life.
“We no longer leap from motherhood straight into elderhood. There’s an entire expanse of feminine identity in between that is not fully understood … .” Dr. Jane Tsafrir
You’ve already lived a rich and full life.
You’ve accomplished and contributed in myriad ways. You’ve raised your children or helped raise others’, completed a thousand ToDo lists, advanced your cause, suffered and overcome, rolled with the punches, rescued yourself and others, painted the town, and created your own reality.
Now you’re looking at a new period of time that’s different than any you’ve experienced before.
This is especially true when it comes to contemplating your potential.
for you this may be a time to reevaluate, shed what’s no longer serving you, and open to your deepest insights about who you’d like to become next.
Coaching and standing beside women in this stage of life is Meriah Kruse’s most natural domain. There are two ways you can begin working together.
COACHING
Designed for working with one woman at a time. Exploring your priorities, desires and obstacles, supporting your advancement and growth toward whatever matters most to You.
RETREATS & mini-Retreats
Created for both individual women and small groups. Retreats are currently held in the Lexington KY vicinity. We’ll be branching out in 2027 to additional destinations.
Meriah has an incredible ability to listen and help sort through the complex layers of a newly emerging vision; layers that involve history, new directions, strategy. She has a remarkable ability to sense when a gentle gesture of mirroring a new idea I have is needed… and also when a slightly stronger suggestions is needed , such as helping me to think about how I pace myself. I feel in good hands with Meriah Kruse.” — Katie Bull, Kingston NY
“Meriah’s workshop is relaxed, encouraging and friendly. Anyone who is looking for personal growth without judgment should consider attending. I guarantee you’ll laugh a lot and won’t regret it.” — Deborah Reed, Sadieville
“I just kept thinking, ‘Oh, my goodness! This approach could apply to so much in life.'” — Beth Gaunce, Harrodsburg
COACHING
Coaching goes deep over time — working across the full terrain of body, mind, and spirit. Whether you’re navigating a health transition, reshaping habits that no longer serve you, planning your next steps after retirement, or stepping more fully into your own authority, coaching provides the structure, the thinking partnership, and the warm accountability to keep moving.
RETREATS & mini-Retreats
Retreats, both individual and for groups, offer an immersive experience: whether in dedicated day, half-day, or longer periods. Designed to help you step outside your routine, go inward, and return with something you didn’t have before: Clarity, or a next step. A felt sense of your own possibility.
Each retreat has its own theme, and provides its own growth and delight. Personal Renaissance Mini-Retreats are custom-designed specifically with you in mind, based on a pre-retreat Questionnaire and Interview.
Fresh Start, led by Meriah, was a refreshing way to greet the new year. Thoughtful content to unite mind, body & spirit and to unite the group in sisterhood.” — Donna Pizzuto, Lexington
