A young adult climbs onto a graduation cap that opens into an unsettled path of work, home, relationships, and possibility.

A Wishbone coaching programme

Roughly adult.

On paper, you are an adult. In practice, work, money, relationships, home, and what you actually want may still feel decidedly unsettled. There is no ceremony at which the rest of it suddenly makes sense.

A view from further round the block

Life remains a strange old thing.

As my sons grew up and became young adults, I often had the pleasure of interesting conversations with them and their friends. We talked about further education, growing up, and what they hoped the future might bring.

Those conversations sit alongside the perspective I have from further round the block: adulthood does not eventually become tidy. Life stays surprising, inconvenient, funny, and occasionally absurd. Your choices matter, but you do not have to approach every one as a final exam.

Questions worth sitting with

How do I make an adult life that feels like mine?

  • How do I follow my passions while also building a long-term financial foundation?
  • How do I build a career without wasting my youth?
  • Where do I actually want to live?
  • How do I make time for the people I love?
  • Am I doing this because I want to, or because I think I should?

The shape of the work

There is no approved version of an adult life.

Roughly Adult is private coaching for young adults facing decisions about work, home, relationships, independence, identity, or simply what comes next. It gives you somewhere to think honestly, loosen some of the pressure, and work out what matters, without being hurried towards an answer or handed somebody else’s plan. Money, family, culture, and necessity remain part of the picture; lightness does not require pretending they are not real.

My job is not to tell you what a sensible adult would do. I listen closely, ask open questions, and reflect back what I notice. Your uncertainty is not evidence that you are doing adulthood badly. It is part of being alive and making choices that are actually yours.
