Who I Work With

I work with mothers and other people who have had a long break from work, but are now ready to build a meaningful career and either don’t know what they want to do, or do know but are unsure about how to get started.

 What I Believe

I believe that everyone has the right to a fulfilling, interesting career, doing something they find engrossing, exciting and fun. I also think it is possible to find a career that you find rewarding in every sense of the word. But it isn’t always straightforward.

What is Your Situation?

If you haven’t worked for a while,  you might lack confidence and feel you don’t have the right skills. But you don’t want to take just anything, risking getting stuck in a job you hate. You want to be able to develop your potential and use your talents.

And you really want to do something meaningful, challenging and exhilarating.

How can you find something that will really work out for you, giving you the opportunities and experiences you want, especially at a time when the world of work has been turned upside down?

It will take a bit of time, a lot of research, asking yourself important questions and some deep thinking.

But it can be done! And it can be fun! I’ll teach you new and unexpected exercises to help you find the way forward.  And if you have kids, some of these exercises will help them learn about future careers they might never have heard of or considered.

And, given the uncertainties about work because of the pandemic, we’ll also work on a plan for you to have an alternative way of making money – one that will enable you to earn a living in a recession or future emergency.

Is this right for you?

It is for you if you really want to a new career, something that really makes you happy. You might have an idea about what that could be, or you might have no idea at all. Perhaps you feel confused, or that it’s overwhelming. So, despite your deep longing for a new beginning, you end up doing nothing.

What does it involve?

Over the course of 12 weeks, we’ll cover all the steps you need to take to discover and begin your new career. In a program specially tailored to meet your individual needs, we’ll start where you are now and depending where that is we’ll:

• research and validate ideas
• uncover your dreams and ambitions
• clarify your skills and talents 
• discuss what you love to do – what gives you meaning and inspires you .

You’ll discover a whole new approach to finding a career and with it new possibilities. We’ll also consider how the workplace has changed recently and how that affects your opportunities. And look at ways to set up a side gig – something to do in your spare time, at least to start with – and that could provide a valuable source of income in a recession or future emergency like the current pandemic.

You might feel that your dream is impossible and that there are no openings, due to the present situation, but this is because you can only see part of the picture. There isn’t just one path that would lead you to a great future.

We’ll look at what is holding you back and work on the practical aspects of career change. You’ll start taking action from day one and be well on your way by week 12.

You will start exactly where you are now, whether you have a rough idea of where you want your career to go or no idea at all.

You’ll talk to me weekly on zoom or by phone and each week we’ll agree on steps for you to complete before the next call.

You’ll have access to any relevant materials I’ve already created, such as video courses and pdfs.

You can email me between sessions if you get stuck or have questions.

If necessary, we can space the sessions out over a slightly longer period, allowing you to go at your own pace. Don’t worry – you won’t be overwhelmed!

How much will this cost? The total for 12 sessions is £1500, payable at the beginning or in 3 monthly payments, one payable at the beginning and the others at the beginning of months two and three.
