Stuck on making a decision about your work-life?

One of the most common reason women come to me is for help making a career decision.

They are spinning in indecision about choices such as:

  • Staying in or leaving their job.

  • Increasing or decreasing hours for family reasons.

  • Changing fields

  • Doing extra study (Masters, PhD)

  • If they should go for a new job or promotion

At the root of indecision is being smart enough to think through all the pros and cons!

A new skill you need is to know exactly what YOU want and then to get your mind on board to support and enable you to act.

What do you need today?

You know when you wake up and just want to stay in bed all day?

You might be sick, exhausted, have chronic conditions or be emotionally flat or anxious.

Maybe it's PMS or some family issue.

Whatever the reason, it's normal to have days when you feel blah.

It is part of life's 50/50.

Increasing your confidence at work - starting ...

Confidence is trust in yourself.

Do you struggle with a lack of self-confidence at work?

I think we have a strange idea of what confidence is.

Yes, it is about a positive view of ourselves and our capacity but to me, it's more than that.

Confidence is about trusting ourselves to be able to be resourceful and to survive or even thrive under difficult circumstances.

Building confidence can start very simply and powerfully by looking back at all the times you were resourceful and persisted.

Do you need a time-management reset at work?

Now that I'm feeling settled into the year a bit more, I've realised that I'm not using my time nearly as well as I could be.

I'm not saying this from a perfectionistic approach, I'm saying this from a.... whoops, I stopped paying attention and my day disappeared realisation!

You know how it is, you get a little less conscious of organisation or of following through with your plans.

Before you know it, you're losing chunks of time that you could be doing great things with!

If this is you, join me today to begin to reset.

What are your 'Greatest Hits' that bring you ...

Do you find yourself going round and round with the same thoughts that make you mad, sad or anxious?

Here is a fun tool that I learned from Dr Martha Beck - Your Greatest Hits.

Listen in on your mind as it goes down its usual path that takes you from, say, 'I wish that had gone better' all the way to 'I'll never be good enough'.

You might notice that you go through the same 'Greatest Hits' thoughts each time.

What are your 'Greatest Hits' that bring you down?

What I learned from major burn out.

What I learned from major burn out.

Almost four years ago I was bedridden for just shy of a month (and weak/unwell for sometime after it). I didn't know what was wrong with me, when or if it would stop. It was terrifying. I couldn't work, care for my daughter or really do anything except sleep and lie in bed. So how did this come about?

Well the short version is that I burned out.

My body had had enough of working hard, pushing myself like crazy, parenting, finishing a PhD and all.the.things.

I had ignored it, almost completely and just kept going.

I was sure that there were no other options and no other way to do it.

That brings me to lesson #1.

Thriving in your job while you're waiting to leave.

I have a steady stream of clients that cannot wait to leave their jobs.

They are done!

They've grown out of the job or their work culture is toxic.

They might crave a new challenge and a bigger impact.

But... they need to stay a little longer in their role.

It could be financial or simply in making a great exit plan to a job they will thrive in (often both!).

What I want for them and YOU is to have as much energy and confidence as possible for the next work adventure, so here are 4 things to do now.

4 ways to make work more peaceful.

4 ways to make work more peaceful.

It's no joke that work is getting more intense these days (there's research to prove it), so given what's happening in our workplaces, what can we do to protect our wellbeing, to find peace in our hectic work days?

This post is about dispelling the major myth around feeling peaceful at work AND giving you a range of ways to find peace in your day. I encourage you to pick the ones that feel good to you and give them a whirl.
