Design Your Next Chapter

Five powerful pathways,one proven framework for lasting change

Every program inside Next Chapter by Design follows the same foundation, a structured and practical process that creates clarity, purpose, and momentum across every area of life.

The difference is how you experience it. Some people thrive in a small group, others prefer private coaching, and some love the intensity of a focused workshop. Each pathway leads to the same outcome, a more confident, purposeful, and aligned you.

What You Will Gain

Across all pathways, you will:

  • Gain a deep understanding of what matters to you most across the eight key dimensions of life
  • See clearly where you are now, where you want to be, and the size of the gap in each dimension
  • Craft a long-term vision of your compelling future
  • Determine your medium-term direction and milestones
  • Identify the highest leverage actions that will create the greatest shift in your first 100 days
  • Create a practical 100-day road map that builds momentum immediately
  • Understand the drivers behind your behaviour and how to sustain progress
  • Access the tools, structure, and accountability that keep you moving forward

It is not about motivation. It is about a practical system that makes change possible, predictable, and sustainable.

The Eight Key Dimensions of Life

Life works best when the important areas support each other. Each dimension influences how you think, how you feel, and how you show up. When one area is thriving, you feel momentum. When another is ignored, the effects ripple further than you expect

These eight dimensions give you a clear, structured way to pause and look at your life with honesty and curiosity. They help you understand what matters most, where you are right now, and where a change of focus could create meaningful progress

This framework is not about doing more. It is about becoming conscious, choosing with intention, and designing a life that reflects your values and your future. When you see the whole picture, the next step becomes obvious

Purpose

Your health is the foundation that supports everything else. It is the strength, vitality, and balance that allow you to think clearly, show up consistently, and sustain the life you want to live. When your health improves, every other dimension becomes easier to elevate

Health

Your health underpins everything. It is the energy that carries you through each day, the physical resilience that supports your goals, and the emotional steadiness that allows you to stay centred under pressure. Health includes sleep, nutrition, movement, stress, and emotional balance. When your health strengthens, every other dimension becomes easier to lift.

Mindset

Mindset shapes how you interpret the world. It includes your beliefs, self-talk, confidence, and the patterns that influence your daily decisions. A healthy mindset is not about constant positivity. It is about awareness, truth, and choosing thoughts that support the direction you want to grow

Wealth

Wealth is the structure that gives you choice and security. It is not just financial resources, it is the ability to plan, invest, and build a future that reflects your values. When you strengthen this dimension, you create stability and freedom for yourself and the people you care about.

Family

Family reflects the relationships that matter most. It includes connection, communication, shared experiences, and the people who anchor your life. When this area is nurtured, it provides strength during challenge and meaning during success

Leadership

Leadership begins with self-leadership. It is how you show up, how you influence, and how you bring your values into action. Strong leadership is not about titles. It is about clarity, integrity, and the ability to guide yourself and others toward meaningful outcomes.

Meaningful Work

Meaningful work is where your strengths, purpose, and contribution meet. It is the work that energises you, challenges you, and allows you to make an impact. When this dimension is aligned, your career becomes more than a job. It becomes an expression of who you are

Legacy

Legacy is the mark you leave on the world. It is shaped by your actions, your relationships, your values, and the influence you have on others. Legacy is not something you create later in life. It is something you build every day through the choices you make and the person you become

The Immersion Experience: The Next Chapter Voyage

Unplug, reflect, and design your long term future with space, clarity, and intention

The Next Chapter Voyage is a rare invitation to step away from everyday noise and reflect on your life from a completely different vantage point, the ocean. Held aboard world class cruise ships in destinations such as the South Pacific, Europe, or the Hawaiian Islands, the Voyage blends deep personal work with the natural calm and spaciousness that only time at sea can create.
There are no phone calls, no inbox, no rushing from meeting to meeting. Instead, there is uninterrupted time to think, breathe, and reconnect with what matters most. The rhythm of the ocean sets a different pace, one that allows you to slow down, look inward, and explore your next chapter with clarity and intention.
Across this immersive experience, you will move through each of the eight key dimensions of life at a deeper and more reflective level. You will consider your long-term future, refine what is most important, and explore how you want your next chapter to look and feel. This is meaningful work, done in an environment that supports stillness, creativity, and honest reflection.
There is time for structured sessions, time for conversation, time for rest, and time simply to be. The ship becomes both a sanctuary and a catalyst for transformation.

You will gain:

  • Uninterrupted time away from work, routine, and responsibility
  • Deep reflection across all eight key dimensions of life
  • A long term vision shaped with clarity, calm, and perspective
  • Insight into where you are now and what needs to change
  • A renewed sense of direction for the next stage of life
  • A supportive small group environment that encourages genuine conversation
  • A powerful combination of stillness, scenery, and sea air that supports deep thinking
Format: Immersive cruise based experience
Duration: Varies by itinerary, designed to provide extended space for reflection, planning, and rest

Key Benefits of this Format:

  • The ocean environment naturally slows the mind, allowing deeper clarity and thoughtful decision making

  • A blend of structured sessions, personal reflection, social connection, and restorative downtime

  • The freedom to explore purpose, health, mindset, wealth, family, leadership, meaningful work, and legacy at a pace shaped by the sea
