The holistic Career Coaching Plus Programme
This is a tailor-made, 1-1 programme. It includes all the elements of the Firework career process that you’ll need, as well as personal coaching to support you with all the specific changes you want to make.
What you do for work is part of the whole landscape of your life. So, changing your work in any way can raise all sorts of questions about how this will impact the rest of your life. The most obvious questions for most of us are:
Then there are questions about what it means to change your role. What am I if I am no longer a programme manager, physiotherapist, teacher, musician, creative director or full-time mother? How will that impact my life? However competent and outwardly confident you are, there might also be that horrible, crushing voice that tells you not to bother even thinking about change because it will all end in failure any way.
The Career Coaching Plus Programme is tailor-made so that you can work on what you need to address these dilemmas with more poise and confidence so that your career change can be a genuinely positive opportunity for you.
This has enabled me to become more focussed on both professional and personal goals and developing an inner discipline in order to achieve them.
How does the Career Coaching Plus Programme work?
Contemplating change can often bring up strong feelings, both in yourself and in those around you. On top of that, the people who you love and care about may well have something invested in your decisions. They may want to see you live out the dreams they never fulfilled. Or perhaps they are filled with anxiety if they see you deviating from what they think is a safe path.
It takes courage to think about changing things in your life, and this extra layer can make it very challenging to say the least. Do contact me if this rings a bell and you are wondering how to move forward. Together we will devise a programme so that you have a solid foundation to make the changes you want to. Sometimes this involves working on very practical steps. At other times you may want to look at some of the more emotional obstacles you find yourself facing.
This has been exactly what I needed to kick-start some positive change. It has encouraged me to think outside my comfort zone, more positively and more openly and I see evidence in my every day actions. It has exceeded any expectations I had.
Career Coaching Plus is about paying quality attention to you and what you need to make change possible.
Change can be hard and often there are a whole range of reasons to stay where you are even if it really isn’t working. When you work with a career coach in this holistic way, we create a quality thinking environment so that you can draw on information from your thinking, feelings, intuitions, senses and experiences.
We can identify the challenges you are facing in your career and any habitual patterns or assumptions that undermine you or your attempts to change. We can also explore your career change would mean for the key people in your life. By fully understanding your current situation and any obstacles, you can get more clarity about what is possible and what self-supporting practices you may need along the way.
We can then create tailor made exercises that enable you to refine your choices, develop confidence and build up your ‘managing change muscles’. From this place, change can move from being too much to contemplate to being a challenge you feel ready for,
Each person is unique and the Career Coaching Plus Programme reflects this. Taking this whole life approach can be an excellent way to put solid foundations in place to create the life and career that better reflects what is important to you.
The number of sessions you wish to have will depend on what you want to work on and your circumstances. Some people fix a set number of sessions; other people prefer to set up blocks of sessions over a period of time to allow them to work ideas into practice and then review. Other people prefer to have a more on-going arrangement. We can agree a pattern of sessions that will work for you.
If you are interested in how this could work for you I offer a free, no-obligation consultation session, simply contact me to arrange a mutually convenient time to talk.
I offer a comprehensive life and careers coaching service if you live anywhere in the UK. I usually do zoom coaching with my clients as I find it such an effective way to work. For clients living locally in the South Hams area of Devon I can also offer some face-to-face sessions.
