Jennifer McGill, Certified Master Life Coach
This isn’t your first chapter — and it’s not your last. I believe that every person has more than one “wind” in life — more than one season of purpose, joy, and self-discovery. Your fifth wind is the one that arrives after you’ve been tested, stretched, and reshaped by experience. It’s that quiet but powerful energy that whispers: “You can begin again — this time as your truest self.”
My Story
I’m Jennfier McGill, founder of Fifth Wind Transformational Coaching — and like many of my clients, I’ve lived through transformation after transformation.
I’ve built a successful 30-year career in Human Resources, guiding people and organizations through change.
But my greatest lessons didn’t come from the boardroom.
They came from life itself.
- I married outside my culture and faith.
- I’ve experienced divorce and the delicate dance of blending a new family.
- I became a mother at 38.
- I lost both of my parents — one to cancer and one to suicide — and faced the deep work of healing through grief.
- And most recently, I faced breast cancer and underwent a double mastectomy — a journey that stripped everything down to what truly matters.
Through all of it, I learned this truth:
Transformation isn’t about getting back to who you were.
It’s about becoming who you were always meant to be.

Whether you're reinventing after loss, illness or burnout, or simply longing for a next chapter that fits who you've become, I'm here to walk beside you - with empathy, clarity, and real-world tools that help you move forward.
