You’ve survived the shift. Now it’s time to rise.

💫 Welcome to the Inner Circle


A high-touch coaching membership for midlife women navigating grief, change, and what comes next.


This is your space to reconnect with your voice, your confidence, and your life—gently, intentionally, and surrounded by women who understand.

“I just want to feel like myself again—but I’m not even sure who that is anymore.”



Sound familiar?

You’re not alone.

And you don’t have to figure it out alone, either.

What Is the Inner Circle?


The Inner Circle is a premium, intimate coaching membership

designed for women navigating:

  • The loss of a loved one

  • A major life transition, or

  • unexpected shift ---A quiet, aching sense of “what now?”

This isn’t a course.

This is personalized support, real connection, and a clear, compassionate path forward.


✨ Inside the Inner Circle, you’ll:


✔ Feel safe, seen, and supported

✔ Receive personalized coaching from Christine every week

✔ Experience deep, authentic connection with women walking a similar path

✔ Rebuild self-trust, confidence, and clarity

✔ Discover your next chapter—on your own terms


✨ From Holding It All Together… to Feeling Whole Again

This is a path of gentle transformation—not a timeline, but a series of inner shifts that unfold at your pace.


Your next step will meet you right where you are.


🌾 Step 1: Anchor

Settle into safety. Here, there’s no pressure to be anything but present. You’ll begin by feeling grounded and supported.


🪞 Step 2: Reflect

Explore who you are now—with curiosity, not judgment. This step invites self-awareness and quiet reconnection.


🤝 Step 3: Connect

Build trust through authentic connection. You’ll be surrounded by women who offer reflection, not comparison.


🌱 Step 4: Realign

Gently reclaim what matters most. Identify your values, boundaries, and truth—so you can live in alignment.


🔥 Step 5: Rise

Step forward with purpose. Whether it’s small daily choices or bold reimagining, you’ll begin to move with clarity and confidence.


Healing doesn’t require a finish line.

Sometimes, the most powerful shift happens when you pause, take a breath, and surround yourself with women who truly see you.

Meet Your Guide

Hey there!


Hi, I’m Christine Panka—grief coach, life transitions guide, and the heart behind the Midlife Surprise Society.

After walking through my own seasons of unexpected loss and identity shifts, I realized how many women were quietly holding it all together while feeling deeply alone. I created the Inner Circle for women like us—women who need real support, not surface-level advice.


This is a space where your grief, your questions, your longings are all welcome. Where we move slowly, gently, together. You won’t be told to "get over it." You’ll be invited to reconnect with yourself, one tender step at a time.


You don’t have to figure this out alone. I’m honored to walk beside you.

This is the face of someone who’s walked through loss—and found her way back to herself.
