I'm a career coach with a twist...I combined 15 years of study of Holistic Theology with 20 years in corporate America to create a coaching practice that does what some people believe is impossible... I advise my clients on how to access their God-given talents and purpose....big stuff....like the MEANING of their life, and turn it into a money-making career.
Remember the book "Do What you Love and the Money Will Follow"? It's the truth. I see it everyday with my clients. The closer you get to aligning your passions and purpose with your career, the more prosperous you'll be. But it's hard to believe, especially in this day and age when everyone is tightening their purse strings.
Now more than ever I'm seeing clients who are taking this economic squeeze as a signal to give their whole life an overhaul. They're re-evaluating what real prosperity is. They're cutting out the excess materialism, and most importantly, they're deciding that their time is precious and valuable. If they're going to devote 8-10 hours a day to making money, it better be doing something that contributes to the world in positive ways and makes them feel good!
You can tell if you're in the right job with one simple litmus test. Are you energized by what you do, or tired? Do you feel totally drained at the end of every day, flopping down in front of the TV to turn off your brain and rest your tired body, or are you jazzed and juiced instead? The right job for you will literally feed your soul and body, not just your checking account.
This all sounds too good to be true, but I've coached over 300 clients making salaries anywhere from $30,000 to $280,000 who can attest to this. When the rubber meets the road, daily happiness always wins out over money. And when you're committed, you can actually have both.
I'm teaching an intro class called "BlissFinders" Wednesday, Feb. 10th from 6:30 to 8:30 p.m. at Visions and Dreams Bookstore, about the tools one needs to go on their own Career Vision Quest. I promise, you'll leave with a head full of golden information and you'll say it was the best $20 you spent all year! Call the store if you want to register: 910-799-1001. Or call me for more information: 910-262-0920.
Hope to meet all of you soon!
