You have outgrown your old story. Let's reimagine the next one together

A collective space for women reimagining work, purpose, and life in mid-career and midlife

Hi, I'm Christine Perfetti, CEO of Lift Up Connections

When the path that once defined you no longer feels like yours, you don’t need to push harder. You need space to reflect, reconnect, and reimagine.

Lift Up Connections is a collective space for women in midlife and mid-career to rediscover what’s next in work, purpose, and life.

After two decades as a Product and UX leader, I realized that professional success doesn’t always equal fulfillment.

So I built Lift Up Connections, a home for women ready to redefine success on their own terms.

With a Master’s in Social Psychology and 25 years guiding transformation, I help women design their next chapter through reflection, clarity, and connection.

Because transformation happens faster, deeper, and more joyfully when we do it in community.

Christine Perfetti, CEO

“Magic happens when people with diverse backgrounds and expertise have the chance to focus on their goals and challenges together.”

The Lift Up Approach: What Makes Us Different

Traditional professional development is built around experts talking at you.

Lift Up Connections is different. It’s a shared space where insight flows between us.

Every Lift Up program is rooted in three pillars:

  • Connection: Genuine relationships that spark momentum.

  • Community: Shared wisdom from peers who have walked similar paths.

  • Clarity: Practical frameworks that help you design what’s next.

“Christine has thoughtfully crafted programs that go beyond conventional playbooks or manuals. What I needed was a space to connect with like-minded women—where we can listen, challenge, and provide real-time feedback to each other. Together, we are all learning and growing.”
– Mary Noone, Marketing Executive

Women Reimagining Summit

Many women arrive at mid-career or midlife sensing that something is shifting.

What once worked doesn’t feel as aligned anymore. Energy feels different. Confidence isn’t gone, but it’s evolving. Not because you failed, but because the path has changed.

Beneath that shift is often a desire for work that sustains you without draining your nervous system, creativity, or sense of self.

This summit brings together women whose stories helped shape my own reinvention, showed me what becomes possible when we listen to ourselves, tell the truth about where we are, and choose courage over autopilot.

Reimagine Your Career Cohort for Mid-Career and Senior Women

Are you deciding whether to continue to advance in your career or take a step back? Are you considering a pivot or shift in career or life priorities?

As part of the four-week guided program, you will be assigned to a Connection Council, a small and intimate cohort of like-minded women to reflect on your career journey and move through research-driven exercises to design your next chapter. 

“I really appreciated all of the support I got from my council. It’s amazing that I ask people in every strategic conversation, what do you want to achieve?, and then can’t see it from the inside until someone else says it. Thanks for bringing us all together. What a gift!”
– Stephanie Gerber Wilson, EdTech Leadership Consultant

The Lift Up Connections Podcast: Reimagining Life, Growth, an Reinvention Together

The Lift Up Connections Podcast is where mid-career and midlife women come to explore the truth of who they are, what’s shifting, and who they’re becoming next.

Hosted by Christine Perfetti,  social psychologist and creator of the Only You Reinvention Framework, this podcast shares honest, intimate conversations with women navigating growth, leadership, and reinvention at one of the most pivotal stages of life.

Inside Lift Up Connections: We experiment. We get curious. We create space for the woman you are becoming, not the one the world expects.

Collective Cohorts for Organizations and Universities

We design private Collective Cohorts and team experiences that bring mid-career and senior women together to align, connect, and lead through change.

Each session is customized for your organization, blending expert voices, behavioral science, and collective wisdom to help strengthen trust, collaboration, and purpose.

Because connection isn’t a soft skill. It’s how transformation happens.
