I Help Overwhelmed, Hard-Working Women Ditch Burnout & Reignite Their Purpose. And purpose is what a fulfilling life is all about.

“Life begins at the end of your comfort zone. So if you’re feeling uncomfortable right now, know that the change taking place in your life is a beginning, not an ending.”

– Neale Donald Walsch

If you are you a driven woman juggling career, family, and dreams of something more, yet you feel stuck in autopilot. Welcome. You’re in the right place.

Stephanie Lockwood

I’m Stephanie Lockwood, Amazon best-selling author, life strategist, and the founder of Next Chapter Transformations. I guide women to overcome overwhelm, embrace growth, and build lives they love.

If you are feeling uncomfortable in your life, embrace it, because this moment of discomfort is not an ending, but a powerful beginning. See it as a fresh start, a chance to write your next chapter.

Why I started Next Chapter Transformations

2021: Facing burnout and loss—my “plot twist” that changed everything.
2022: Discovered the power of nervous-system regulation & life strategy.
2023: Practitioner and Meta-Dynamics Coach, The Coaching Institute
2024: Published my Amazon best-selling book, Harmony Within – Unlock the secrets to managing stress
2025: Officially launched Next Chapter Transformations to serve women who feel “stuck in survival mode.”

I vividly remember the night I broke down in tears at my kitchen table, stressed, overwhelmed, and convinced I was “failing.” It was only after I learned to regulate my nervous system and re-write my own story that everything shifted. Now, I guide others through that same messy but wonderful process. There is nothing like a good Before and After, and all the messy stuff in between! I love to help people back to themselves—mind, body, and soul. My approach is grounded, compassionate, and totally relatable, because transformation isn’t always tidy… but it’s always worth it. And it’s waiting for you.

Let’s turn the page and write your next chapter—together.

Who I Work With and How We Transform

You might be: 

  • A high-achieving woman feeling trapped in “autopilot” 
  • A mother overwhelmed by life’s many demands
  • Someone craving purpose, but stuck in survival mode 

Together, we will: 

  • Gain Clarity: Uncover the hidden beliefs holding you back (so you finally know which direction to take). 
  • Map Your Path: Co-create a flexible pathway
  • Integrate & Evolve: Use mind-body practices (like breathwork & nervous system regulation) alongside values and intuitive goal setting strategies to create real momentum. 

Outcomes you’ll experience: 

  • Renewed energy, balance, and confidence 
  • Deep-down trust in your next chapter—and the tools to make it happen
  • A grounded sense of self—aligned, intentional, and finally in the driver’s seat of your life
