You built the life they told you to want.
Now what?
You followed the rules of what they said would lead to success. And somewhere along the way, you began to realize that you want more for yourself. You’re ready for a life that feels like yours, and you’re ready to do what it takes to make this a reality.
YOU’RE NOT INTO PLAYING THEIR GAME ANY MORE
You’ve spent decades earning your worth–chasing the titles, making the money, meeting everyone else’s expectations, and trying to prove yourself to people who don’t give you the credit you deserve. And that worked, until it didn’t. The women I work with aren’t weak. They’re strong as hell, but they need permission to step into their own game instead of playing by everyone else’s rules. And that’s exactly what we do together.
THIS IS YOUR CHANCE
IT'S FINALLY TIME TO CHOOSE YOURSELF.
I work with heart-centered midlife women who are tired of putting themselves last on their list. They’ve found success, but they still don’t feel like their life is theirs. They’re missing something–the enthusiasm, the freedom, the joy in life. Simply put-they want something more for themselves. If you’re ready to stop living for everyone else and live a life you love–on your terms, in your voice, and with nothing left on the table–you’re in the right place.

Hi, I’m
Renée DeVore
If you’ve spent your entire life putting them over you and you’re exhausted, empty, and disconnected from yourself, I’ve been right where you are. I know. I’ve felt it. And now I’m on the other side of it, and you can be, too.
For decades, I gave everything I had into a career and into every person around me and thought that was my purpose in life. Give everything because that’s what I was supposed to do to feel valued. From the outside looking in, I had what most thought was a ‘successful life’. I was a principal of high achieving schools, a great salary, nice car, beautiful clothes, and traveled extensively. But all of that was hiding the pain I was feeling inside.
I was doing what a lot of women do when the life they're living doesn't fit but they don't know how to say that yet. I was drinking heavily to take the edge off. I was burying myself in debt, spending money to fill a space that money was never going to fill. I was drowning in reality TV every night because watching someone else's drama was the only way I could stop thinking about my own. I was in survival mode and had no sense of any other way to cope.
What I couldn't see then is that I had been silencing my own voice for so long, I didn’t know what I really wanted for myself because everyone else was my priority. I kept looking outward for someone to finally see my worth and to save me, but I needed to realize the only person who was going to do that–was me.

I had made big moves in my life to figure out how to get out of this cycle, but it wasn’t until a panic attack showed me that this life I was living could be for nothing if I didn’t get clear on what I wanted for myself fast. That panic attack was my wake-up call. And although we hear of them often, it was my signal to leave behind a life that wasn’t mind and find one that was.
I committed to finding my way back to myself, once and for all, and there wasn’t a straight line from there to here. Relationships fell away. Friendships that couldn't survive me becoming more honest didn't last. At 48 I walked away from my 25-year career and a six-figure salary. At 49 I got married for the first time. At 50, I started my coaching business.
None of those milestones are the point. The point is that none of them would have been possible if I hadn't first done the hardest thing — sitting with myself long enough to hear what I wanted, and then trusting to follow my heart without a roadmap or anyone's permission.
This is the work I now guide other women through.
I'm a certified life coach, though I think of myself more as a mentor, because what I bring isn't just a methodology. It's the lived experience of someone who has walked the exact road you're standing at the beginning of.
I want you to know that it can all change when you invest in the work–not just financially but consistently reflecting who you are, why you’re here, and how you want to show up for yourself moving forward.
You’ve been playing by rules that were never written for you for so long that you've mistaken them for your own beliefs. My job is to help you tell the difference — and then help you build something that is completely yours.
Here’s what they say…
YOU KNOW HER.
YOU MIGHT EVEN BE HER
Doing everything for everyone else because that's just ‘who you are’, but you know it’s taking a toll on your mental health and physical well being.
Snapping at the people you love most and being ashamed of it because they’re the only place where that hidden energy feels real and leaks out
Waiting for your circumstances to change and life to settle down, but you also realize that may never happen and you’re drawing in a desire to live differently for yourself.
Frustrated with everyone around you for not seeing what you need, and starting to think you might be the common denominator in all of this
Keeping yourself so busy because when things get quiet, it gives you time to think about everything that’s not working. And that feels overwhelming and scary.
