CAREER CHANGE FOR WOMEN

THE NUMBERS ARE CLEAR: 57% OF WOMEN DREAM OF A CAREER CHANGE

Reading this number, I feel a mix of sadness and excitement!

In this article, we’ll explore some causes, but most importantly, how to act if you’re in this situation.

It’s astonishing that so many women are dissatisfied with their professional lives, yet I regularly see examples during sessions and training I offer.

Dissatisfaction is one thing, but stress and lack of time also affect many women.
They don’t have time to take care of themselves, putting their personal lives on hold. This is a sad number, but also hopeful, showing that most women don’t want to stay in an unsatisfactory situation!

WOMEN SEEKING A CAREER CHANGE ARE MOST OFTEN BETWEEN 30 AND 50 YEARS OLD.

That’s true for most women who follow the training I offer. They decide to quit their jobs and professionally change paths.

Women aged 30 to 50 have enough experience to know what they want and don’t want in their professional and personal lives.
Many seek meaningful work, often wanting to help or support others toward well-being.

There are many methods to fulfill these needs and values.
I have supported women seeking career changes for years, whether through coaching sessions or holistic training.

The women I’ve trained now have fulfilling jobs that give meaning to their lives and allow them time for self-care.

SOME IDEAS AND STEPS THAT CAN HELP YOU SUCCEED IN A CAREER CHANGE:

OUR VALUES
One method used in coaching or holistic therapy to find the right path is aligning with our values.
But first, you need to know them and their importance.
I’ve created a method to help you do this now:

When we become aware of our important values, we can consciously align our lives with them, and thus, find and practice a career that suits us.

WHAT DO YOU LOVE TO DO? WHAT MAKES YOU TICK?
Would you like to make a living doing something you love and are passionate about?
What’s important to you?

There are many ways to do what you love while earning an appropriate financial return.
However, a common belief blocking most women (and men) from a career change is thinking it’s impossible to live off their passion and earn money doing what they enjoy!

That’s often the biggest obstacle that needs to be overcome for a successful transition.

OUR NEEDS
Other aspects to consider in a career change include our needs, especially balancing professional and personal life.
Do you want more free time for yourself or your family?
Do you want to manage your schedule freely without asking “superiors” for permission whenever you want to do something?

Considering these questions, it might be worthwhile to move toward a profession where you are independent or have control over your free time.

A LIST OF QUESTIONS FOR YOUR CAREER CHANGE
I could go on, listing questions like your financial goals, whether you want to work from home, in an office, or for a boss, your dreams, and ideal life.
But I’ll stop here, as this process takes reflection and time to put everything into perspective.

The best way to gain clarity is with a coach or therapist.
On my site, you’ll find a list of therapists I’ve trained who can assist you (online or in your area).
You can also contact me, and depending on availability, I may offer individual support in addition to my priority training programs.
