Hey, I’m Keri.

I help women move forward when life no longer feels like it fits.

After major life changes, many people find themselves in a space between who they were and who they’re becoming.

 

That’s the work we do here.

You don’t have to figure this out alone. Not the hard parts. Not who you’re becoming.

When Life No Longer Fits

I knew how to hold it together for everyone else.

For years, I was the person who held everything together — at work, for other people, and in situations where staying calm mattered.

My background in Human Resources leadership taught me how people respond to stress, uncertainty, and major life transitions.

 

Then life changed in ways I couldn’t control.

 

After navigating serious health challenges and multiple major life transitions, I found myself in the same uncertain space I now help other women move through — trying to rebuild a life that no

longer felt familiar.

 

That experience changed how I understood support.

 

I realized people don’t just need advice during hard seasons. They need honest support, steady guidance, and space to become who they are now.

 

That’s the work I do today through Next, Together™.

What happens
after everything changes? 

The hardest part wasn’t only what happened.

It was feeling alone in it.

I learned that the hardest part isn’t always the event itself. It’s what comes after — when support fades, life no longer feels familiar, and you’re trying to figure out who you are now.

The ‘messy middle’ often begins when support fades and life no longer feels familiar.

 

What people in transition often need most isn’t advice or forced positivity. They need support that feels honest, grounded, and human.

The Work I’m Here to Do

For years, I worked in Human Resources leadership roles helping people navigate stress, change, and difficult life situations. I’ve always been drawn to creating steady support during hard seasons.

​Then life changed in ways I couldn't control, and I had to figure out what came next in a life that no longer felt like it fit.

That experience changed how I understood support. I realized real healing isn’t just emotional or practical. It has to support the whole person.

Today, I support women who are still functioning on the outside while quietly realizing their old life no longer fits. Together, we rebuild stability, clarity, and a way forward that feels honest and sustainable.

Energy & Capacity

Supporting your energy, routines, and daily steadiness in realistic ways.

Nourishment & Stability

Thoughts, boundaries, self-trust, and practices that help you feel more grounded.

Connection & Support

Relationships, belonging, and support that help you feel less alone.

Why I Founded Next, Together™

I created Next, Together™ because major life changes can leave people feeling disconnected from themselves, their lives, and the future they thought they were building.

Too often, support focuses only on “getting through” the crisis itself.

 

Next, Together™ was created for the space between surviving and rebuilding.

 

That’s why my approach focuses on rebuilding stability in a way that supports the whole person:
emotionally, mentally, physically, and relationally.

 

The goal isn’t to “get back to normal.”

 

It’s to build a life that feels honest, steady, and aligned with who you are now.
