Personal Reinvention Starts Here

Midlife transitions, career shifts, retirement that doesn’t feel like “the end”—these moments can leave you feeling stuck or uncertain. I started Next Edge Coaching to help people navigate these life transitions with purpose, confidence, and a plan that actually works.

I’m Sean Carney, a reinvention coach who’s been through these transitions too—and I help clients do it with clarity, momentum, and meaning.

This isn’t corporate coaching packed with jargon or one-size-fits-all advice. It’s grounded, actionable, and built for real-life reinvention. Whether you’re redefining your identity, planning an encore career, or seeking clarity in the next phase of life, I offer practical support and tools that help you move forward.

If you’re standing at the edge of something new and don’t know where to start, you’re not alone. That’s where I come in.

You don’t need a five-year plan.

You just need the next step—and a coach who helps you take it.

Who I Work With

• Professionals in midlife transitions wondering what’s next

• Pre-retirees redefining retirement with purpose

• Individuals seeking career reinvention or an encore career

• Those who’ve had a transformative experience (psychedelic or otherwise) and want to bring it into daily life

• People ready for personal transformation—with a coach who’s smart, grounded, and helpful. No gimmicks. No scripts.

My Approach to Life Transition Coaching

This isn’t just mindset work—it’s transformation coaching backed by real tools and strategy. I combine brain-based coaching methods, personal experience, and 20+ years of leadership insight to help clients move through uncertainty into meaningful action.

Every coaching program is tailored to your journey—whether you’re seeking midlife reinvention, navigating retirement transitions, or planning your next chapter.

Why I Do This Work

I’ve gone through my own reinventions—career pivots, identity shifts, and walking away from paths that no longer fit. This work is lived, not theoretical—and it’s what I help clients do every day.

Why “Next Edge”?

The Next Edge is where purpose, possibility, and discomfort meet. It’s the turning point where real growth and personal transformation happen. And you’re likely closer to it than you think.

Let’s Take the Next Step

You don’t need all the answers.

You just need a next step—and a reinvention coach who can help you take it.
