Trust me when I say I did this myself for way\ntoo long.&nbsp; If you\u2019re feeling bored or\nunsatisfied in your current job it can take a huge toll on your physical and\nmental health.&nbsp; Perhaps you\u2019re feeling\nfrustrated, burned out, anxious, stressed out, depressed or unable to enjoy\nyour time at home knowing that you\u2019ll be right back at it in the morning.&nbsp; <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>For work to not feel like a 4-letter word it should be\nmeaningful and rewarding\u2014without this it\u2019s hard to generate the enthusiasm\nneeded to advance in your job or career.&nbsp;\nYou are far more likely to achieve success in an occupation that you\nfeel passionate about.&nbsp; The right career brings\nmeaning, purpose, pleasure, happiness, satisfaction, self-esteem, income, identity,\nand fulfillment into our lives.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>So how do you gain meaning and satisfaction from your\nwork? <\/strong>&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>You can either:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ol><li>Change careers to something that plays to your\nstrengths and are passionate about OR <\/li><li>You can find joy and purpose in a job that\nyou\u2019re not crazy about<\/li><\/ol>\n\n\n\n<p>Whether you\u2019re just finishing college, finding opportunities\nlimited in your current skill set, facing unemployment, or feeling bored, disengaged,\nor not appreciated in your current job, it may be time to reconsider your\nchosen career or job. &nbsp;By identifying\nwhat interests you, learning how to research options, realizing your strengths,\nand acquiring new skills, as well as gathering the courage to make a change,\nyou can discover the career path that\u2019s right for you. &nbsp;Even if you feel stuck in a position you don\u2019t\nlove with no realistic opportunity for change, there are still ways to find\nmore satisfaction and joy in what you\u2019re doing.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>So, where do you start when you finally feel you are ready\nto engage in making better career and life choices?&nbsp; While many begin in the external world of\nresumes and job postings, to make truly satisfying career and life choices, it\nis the internal world\u2014figuring out who you are, what you need, and what you\nvalue\u2014that really counts!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Discovering the Possibilities<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Whether you are embarking on your first career out of college\nor you\u2019ve been at it a while and looking to make a career change or you\u2019re not\nquite ready to retire and would love to explore an encore career, the first\nstep is to think carefully about what really motivates you. &nbsp;You may find it hard to get past thinking\nabout careers that simply pay well or are the most secure. &nbsp;But the truth is, most employees rank job\nsatisfaction above salary in ensuring their happiness at work. &nbsp;So, unless you\u2019re in a situation where you\nmust take the first available job just to pay the bills, it\u2019s important to\nfocus on your primary interests and passions. &nbsp;This can open doors to careers that you might\nnot have considered. &nbsp;With this foundation,\nyou can start fine tuning your search for the right career. &nbsp;You may be surprised at how your passions can\nbe part of a new career direction. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In career counseling \/ career coaching, we will explore your\neducation, training, work experience, interests, skills, needs, wants, and\npersonality traits. &nbsp;Additionally, as a career\ncounselor I provide support to people experiencing job stress, job loss, and\nother career transition challenges. &nbsp;Together\nwe will sort out whatever issues you might be having around obtaining the career\nof your dreams.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Some areas we might focus on include:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul><li>Assessing your best career\/job options<\/li><li>Changing careers<\/li><li>Knowing when it\u2019s time to leave a company<\/li><li>Learning key communication skills<\/li><li>Discovering work\/life balance<\/li><li>Dealing with office politics and resolving\nconflict<\/li><li>Understanding your own strengths, weaknesses and\nblind spots<\/li><li>Finding a company that fits your personality and\nstyle<\/li><li>Practicing mock interviews and knowing how to\nanswer key questions<\/li><li>Dealing with a layoff\/job loss<\/li><li>Working with difficult co-workers<\/li><li>Developing a career plan<\/li><li>Making more effective decisions<\/li><li>Developing job search and networking skills<\/li><li>Composing an effective resume, LinkedIn profile\nand cover letter<\/li><li>Navigating job stress, anxiety, career\ntransitions and other challenging issues<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>I work to give job seekers the education, coaching, and\nsupport to work smarter, not harder.&nbsp;

Someone to work with you on your LinkedIn\nprofile, your resume, your cover letter, and your networking and interview\nskills.&nbsp; <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Investing in yourself is the single best thing you can do in\nyour lifetime and will pay for itself exponentially.&nbsp; There\u2019s a reason why successful athletes have\nat least one if not multiple coaches\u2026 to help them be the best that they can\nbe.&nbsp; They wouldn\u2019t be where they are\ntoday without their coaches and wouldn\u2019t think about going it alone.&nbsp;
