Do any of these women sound like you?

So I'm not sure how well you know me. You might be brand new to my website, or have been following me for a while now. But just in case you're not aware of what I do, or who I do it for, I thought I'd give you a little overview...

WHO?

So essentially I’m a Mindset Coach and I help women find clarity and confidence in their careers and businesses.

Maybe lately you’ve been feeling called to…

• Finally make that career shift into more fulfilling work?

• Launch or grow your own business?

• Start that creative project or book you’ve been dreaming about?

• Feel confident enough to go for that promotion?

But there might be doubts and fears standing in the way like:

• Am I ready?

• Am I qualified?

• Will I fail?

• Will other people judge me?

• Will I make enough money?

• Will I still be able to be there for my family?

• Will I end up feeling burned out and exhausted?

Which is where I come in. I have worked with all kinds of women (and a handful of men) from all sorts of professional backgrounds, including Event Organisers, University Academics, Project Managers, HR Executives, Marketing Managers, Strategists, Designers and Yoga Teachers.

Some are still in full time employment, some are taking a career break and some are freelance, but what they all want is to do something they truly love, feel more confident and create more balance in their lives.

HOW?

I really believe that often the real change that we need to make is internal.

Clients usually come to me wanting to make an external change in their careers, and yes sometimes that is absolutely what needs to happen. But what I see time and time again, is that the issues they are experiencing at work are also issues which affect other areas of their lives too.

So simply job hopping or quitting, without addressing the root causes of why they feel stuck, unfulfilled, frustrated or lacking in confidence, will mean that these issues get carried around from job to job wherever they go.

Which is where mindset coaching can help. Together we can get you unstuck, help you recognise your unique gifts and strengths, release the blocks and fears which are holding you back, and develop the confidence to create a fulfilling career or business that you absolutely love.

Why there will never be a 'right time'

If you want to bounce out of bed every Monday morning feeling excited for the week ahead.

And fill your day with tasks and activities that you love.

And go to bed knowing that you’ve made a difference.

And create a life that inspires and empowers you.

There will never be a 'right time' to do it.

You'll have to push yourself to try new things that scare you.

You might encounter criticism, jealousy or fear from others (and that could include people who are close to you).

There's a possibility it might not work out exactly the way you thought it would.

You'll have to dedicate time and money to getting your dream off the ground. 

You might have to re-arrange your priorities for a while (and yes the house may not perfectly organised for a few weeks/months).

But I can tell you this. This short term, uncomfortable, sometimes scary beginning, pays off BIG in the long term. That is, if you want...

Purpose
Direction
Motivation
Freedom
Confidence 
Authenticity
Balance 

Change isn't always easy. Which is why not everyone goes after their career dreams. And there never seems to be a 'right time'. 

But if you are willing to be brave. And do the work in the short term. And you have the right support system by your side. Then you CAN do it. I've seen it happen many, many times.

Is your mindset holding you back from career success?

Sorting out your mindset is just as important as finding the right career.

In fact, do you spend as much time working on your mindset as you do looking for a new job or business idea?

If not, I would highly recommend that you do.

Because feeling strong and confident in your mindset can make all the difference between you actually going after your career dreams or just putting them off for another day. And another. And another.

Fear can really hold us back. It might manifest itself as not feeling good enough, or continually comparing yourself to others, or feeling like an 'imposter' and that you're going to be found out.

I can totally relate because I went through all of those feelings during my career change. One in particular was 'imposter syndrome' and thinking "who am I to start a business? I'm not an expert". Despite the fact that I had done my coaching training, that I'd had plenty of practice clients, and I was 100% ready to do the work. But those negative voices in my head kept knocking my confidence.

I've had to work really hard on my mindset since I made my career change, such as changing the way I talk to myself (those pesky little 'negative inner voices'), continuing to get support from a coach, keeping a journal, modelling confident behaviour from others etc etc. There are plenty of little mindset tools and strategies that have really worked for me, and that's why I include them in my coaching programme.

Often we can focus too much on the nuts and bolts of making a career change, such as trawling jobs boards, or fretting about making our website look perfect. But if your mindset is holding you back then your transition is going to be much harder than it needs to be.

I believe that a healthy mindset and career happiness go together.

Like strawberries and cream.

If you read about any of my clients, they will say the same, that they had to overcome at least some aspects of fear, low confidence, self-doubt, perfectionism or procrastination. And I have definitely experienced them all too. They still come up from time to time (to be honest they never 100% go away), but now I know how to deal with them and they affect me much less.

My coaching sessions contain lots of practical strategies for identifying new career paths or business ideas and creating an action plan for your transition, but what my clients often tell me is that the most powerful sessions are the ones where we deal with mindset. This is what gives them a solid foundation to build on when searching for their ideal career and being able to dream bigger than they ever allowed themselves to before!
