Ready to start thriving at work?

If you’re in the chaos of high stress and burnout, we’ll start with some stress-reduction SOS strategies and self-care practices to help reduce the stressors and build your resilience. If this is your top priority, we’ll expand this section to several sessions. If you’re not experiencing high stress, then we’ll skip this step.

By the end of this section, you know where you land on the Burnout to Thriving spectrum and will have new stress-reduction mechanisms and coping techniques to help mitigate the impact of stress in your daily life. 

Example exercises and tools: Stress and Burnout Assessment, Grounding and breathwork techniques, new resilience-building lifestyle changes, self-compassion break, etc.

Next, we’ll get specific on exactly what isn’t working for you (and what is) in your career. We’ll begin creating and implementing job improvement strategies to help improve your current work life. 

By the end of this section, you’ll have identified the top stress and dissatisfaction triggers in your job and your personal life and prioritized which areas to tackle first.  

Example tools and exercises: A comprehensive Work Stress & Dissatisfaction Assessment, Job Demands and Resources audit, past job reflections (so we can understand what has and hasn’t worked in the past), etc.

We’ll identify what you specifically need to enjoy your work by exploring your unique personality, passions, skills, values, personal preferences, and limiting beliefs.

By the end of this section, you’ll have increased self-awareness of your career needs and have created a checklist of career preferences (and deal breakers!).

Example exercises and tools: Skill x Passion Matrix, enneagram personality assessment, reflection on important individual differences/identity factors (e.g., ADHD, parenthood/motherhood, HSP, etc.). 

We’ll use creative tools from design thinking to help you brainstorm a list of attractive options when it comes to your career. I’ll help you think through new options and learn everything you need to know through research and networking so you can decide what’s next with peace and ease.

By the end of this section, you will have created a list of attractive career options and decided which one to pursue, whether that’s staying in your current role, switching companies, or pivoting into a new field entirely. You’ll also have created a 5-year career plan. 

Example exercises and tools: Should I Stay or Should I Go, Alternative Work/Life Option Brainstorming, O*Net Career Interest Profiler (for those interested in switching fields), Top Career Choices: Research & Logistics Workbook, etc. 

If you decide to stay in your current job, never fear; we can improve it! We’ll use practical strategies from Industrial-Organizational Psychology called job crafting to help you make your job a better fit for your needs, personality, and preferences.  

By the end of this section, you will have created a Job Improvement plan with actionable steps and milestones. 

Example exercises and tools: Career mindset shift/cognitive reappraisal, task crafting, setting healthy boundaries, remodel vs. reinvent vs. relocate.

If you’re changing jobs or fields, we’ll create a job search plan to help you navigate the chaos of job hunting with ease. I’ll also support your job hunt’s logistics and paperwork (e.g., resume, LinkedIn, cover letter, interview tips, etc.). My VIP Job Changer package offers more intensive support on the logistical & paperwork aspects of navigating job changes. 

By the end of this section, you will have created a job search plan, updated your Resume and LinkedIn profile, and have new strategies to rock your next interview.
