Have you ever felt undervalued, over worked, stressed, put up with meaningless drivel and thought on many occasions ‘what on earth am I still doing here?’
Or (what I like to call) the 3am Career and Life Crisis (you know, when you wake up in a sweat thinking ‘is this it, is this it for my life', nightmare!)
I get you, I really do.
Great question! For the past 11 years I’ve worked face to face with people as a professional careers counsellor and employability trainer. (Employ-a-what? It’s one of those ‘careers’ words which means…the skills needed for obtaining and sustaining work.)
And for the past 16 years as a personal development trainer; helping people break through 'psychological fears and barriers' so that they are living life with purpose, passion and pleasure.
Combined you get a full package of support.
And can I share this with you…
Changing career is a lot different (and heck, way more rewarding) to finding any job and...
Owning and ‘working’ a career you love while getting paid for it…is more rewarding than just changing career.
Discovering and finding your passions and strengths; that’s the easy part (seriously, it is.) In fact, I would go as far to say you probably already DO know what you want your career to look like - but are having a hard time admitting it!

(Smiling) Such a good question! When I use the term ‘follow your passion’ I’m talking to you if you have passed the point of no return in your current career!
Following Your Passion could be perceived as wishy washy, to me it’s about YOU…laid bare, getting paid for what you love.
The honest (and only) answer to that is I don’t know! I might, I might not. I do have plenty of experience helping you figure out:
a) Who you are (passion, values, mission, purpose, talents, skills)
b) What you want (or admitting it)
c) How your going to get there
d) Supporting your journey
If you're looking for coaching please click here. However, wait a moment... I would recommend you test drive me first. You could do this by having a look at the resources available.
Or is there a careers event coming up? More intensive yes, however all my programmes offer ongoing support. Also please check over on the blog, there may be a piece of information that could help.
You see, in my 16 years experience when an individual is changing career from a place of desperation (because they hate what they are doing) they are in a ‘state of panic’, you may recognise this - you would buy into anything or anyone that seems to have the solution to your problem.
My advice - do nothing in haste, shop around and try out different services before you put your hand in your pocket!
Ahh…skeptical, this is a good thing (sometimes) First, read the testimonials to the right.
This is my 12th year assisting people to whip their career into shape. Yes I use coaching skills in all my work and no I'm not exactly a 'type'.
Yes, my experience is real and I have worked with people from all walks of life, each with a unique story - and even more important than that - I'm a human being with a career story to tell also! If you want to know how I work with you click here
Love and best wishes
