Welcome to THINK.PLAN.LIVE.
I’m Gill McLaren — author, coach, and founder of the Think.Plan.Live.® methodology. This is your starting place for designing a life that feels true to you. Whether you’re here to explore your own Life Design or bring its principles into your team and organisation, you’re in the right place to make steps toward a more aligned and energised life.
"There is something wonderfully powerfully reflective about getting roughly halfway through life and wondering to yourself, 'is this as good as it gets? Am I really living the life I want from a career and family perspective?" Gill McLaren
Think.Plan.Live. Is designed as your guide in Life Design. Full of stories, tools and exercises curated for the reader with the sole purpose of stimulating you into a self-coaching journey of personalised life design, as unique to you as your fingerprint.
Eight years after publishing her groundbreaking book, Gill McLaren is excited to release an audiobook version of Think.Plan.Live.® Audiobook — a practical, personal guide to designing a life that’s truly aligned with who you are. Narrated by Gill herself, this audiobook marks a bold new chapter in her mission to make intentional life design more accessible than ever. It’s more than a new format, the audiobook + accompanying downloadable PDF workbook, is a life design course — it’s the next evolution of a movement that’s already impacted thousands through coaching, retreats, and corporate programs.
Think.Plan.Live.® plus the supporting courses and programs in the new Life Design Hub, is your invitation to step off autopilot and start designing a more meaningful, energised, integrated and authentic life.

About Gill
Gill’s Personal Story
After a high-flying global corporate career, Gill McLaren had every hallmark of success — but something felt off. Despite thriving on paper, she realised she was living on autopilot, disconnected from what truly energised and fulfilled her.
Rather than wait for burnout, Gill chose bold, conscious change. She stepped away from the corporate track to realign her life around what mattered most: family, nature, creativity, and meaningful connection.
This turning point wasn’t just personal — it became the foundation for her professional reinvention. Gill founded her human potential consultancy, Syntegrate, and developed the Think.Plan.Live.® methodology to help others design lives that feel as unique and authentic as their fingerprint.
“We are one in 8 billion. Each of us is as unique as our fingerprint — and there’s real power in discovering, owning, and amplifying that uniqueness.” — Gill McLaren
What Drives Gill?
Gill believes that every individual holds a powerful inner potential — often untapped — waiting to be discovered, owned, and lived. Her mission is to catalyse curiosity in others so they can live, work, and lead in alignment with who they truly are.
At the heart of her work is Uniqology™ — the art and science of discovering what makes each of us truly unique, one in eight billion. By helping people reconnect with their values, strengths, energy, life story, and aspirations, Gill empowers others to make aligned, energised choices that lead to more meaningful, sustainable lives.
Core Methodology
Gill’s signature framework, Think.Plan.Live.®, is a 6-step Life Design process built for real lives and real people (insert visualisation of Unique Life Fingerprint 6 W’s). It combines strategic tools with human insight to help individuals:
- Clarify what matters most
- Understand their unique Life Fingerprint™
- Create a practical, personalised life plan for the future
Her philosophy of Uniqology™ is the foundation — guiding people to honour their individuality and design integrated lives that reflect it.
Through the Think.Plan.Live.® book, audiobook, workbook, and Life Design Hub, this framework is now more accessible than ever.
Speaker and Facilitator
Gill brings the same warmth, wisdom, and clarity she offers in coaching to every stage and room she walks into. She speaks on:
- Authentic Life Design
- Leadership from alignment
- Building healthy team ecosystems that work in flow
- The power of Uniqology™
- Energised living for sustainable performance
What makes her message land? She’s lived it. Gill shares her story not for drama, but for connection and relatability — helping others see themselves in her journey and believe that change is possible.
Her sessions are interactive, inspiring, and practical — often accompanied by the Think.Plan.Live.® toolkit and opportunities to continue the work beyond the event.
