The Next Chapter

The Two Questions That Decide Your Next Chapter

A free workbook for women who know they cannot do this for another twenty years.

What Is Inside

If you know you cannot do this for another twenty years but you have no idea what comes next, this workbook is where you start.

Most women in your position have been thinking about leaving for a while. They research. They make lists. They come back to the same blank page. Not because the answer does not exist. Because they have never stopped to answer the two questions that actually unlock it.

The workbook walks you through both.

Question 1: What do you want your life to actually look like outside your career? Not what feels responsible. Not what makes sense to explain to other people. What you actually want. Your hours, your location, your pace, what more looks like and what less looks like.

Question 2: Do you still enjoy the work you do? This one is harder than it looks. Burnt out and done with the work are two different things with very different implications for what comes next. The answer tells you which one you are.

When you finish, a short interpretation guide helps you read what your answers are telling you. Not a prescription. A starting point.

Who This Is For

You have built a successful career. You have been there long enough to climb the ladder and reach the goals you set years ago. And lately it is costing you more than it is giving you.

You are not confused about whether you want something different. You are stuck on what that something is.

You have been researching careers. Taking assessments. Reading about finding your purpose. Talking to people in fields that seem interesting. Coming back to the same blank page.

Most women eventually give up trying to figure it out and stay for twenty more years.

This workbook is for the woman who is not willing to do that.

About Martha

Martha Stevens spent 25 years in corporate building functions that did not exist before she was hired to build them. When she was ready to leave, she built a consulting business while she was still inside corporate and left with it already running.

looked right from the outside. It was the same trap with a different label. Same demands, same identity, same exhaustion.

What she had not done was design the life she actually wanted first. Once she did that work, everything changed. The right options became obvious. The wrong ones fell away.

That is what she teaches now. Life design first. Then building a business that fits it.

Life first. Career second.
