What it is
The Clarity Tracker invites you to slow down and take stock. Too often, we rush through life without asking how we really feel about the way we are spending our time. Retirement can make this even more noticeable. With routines gone, it is easy to fill the space without ever asking: Is this what I really want?
By reflecting on five key areas, the Clarity Tracker helps you see the bigger picture:
- Identity & Purpose – who you are and what gives you meaning
- Health & Wellbeing – energy, vitality, and self-care
- Love & Community – relationships, connection, belonging
- Contribution & Creativity – how you use your skills, passions, and time
- Lifestyle & Rhythm – the daily flow that makes life feel good

This process can reveal areas that feel lacking and need more attention, as well as parts of life that are going better than you realised. Either way, it gives you a clearer sense of where you are now and where you may want to shift.
Why it matters
Many women only realise after leaving work how much purpose and connection their careers once gave them. Without new anchors, retirement can feel flat, lonely, or unstructured. Days fill up, but not always in ways that feel meaningful.
Pausing to reflect is the first step to changing that. The Clarity Tracker helps you notice what is working, what feels out of alignment, and what you most want to carry forward. It stops the drift and opens the door to design.
We are giving this tool away for free because we know how powerful even a short pause can be. It is the same kind of reflection we use in our programs, and we want you to experience its impact for yourself.
