Is over-thinking keeping you stuck?

 

Get focus and momentum with a Career Clarity Call

 

When you have too many ideas, no ideas, or can't tell anymore if your idea has a fantastic future locked within it, a one to one coaching call will help you clear your head, gain confidence and get into focused action.

This is a great option if you are trying to choose between two paths or are having trouble with a big career decision. Perhaps you've had an idea that delights you, but which you are scared to mention to your friends or family for fear of them laughing at you. Very often brilliant ideas stay locked inside because of this simple reason: you have no one objective to talk to.

My position will be completely impartial - I'll be encouraging you to think about what the opportunity you're considering would give you, and what you might be giving up. Voicing ideas can be a wonderful release as well as a clear confidence-booster. Inside your head are many voices - your inner critics - whose only aim is to keep you safe. But in doing this, they also make you fearful of trying. Giving your ideas expression is a perfect way to counter this noisy inner world.

I found it really useful to talk through my dreams and values with someone who is both outside the problem and who is non-judgemental. Clarity often comes from listening to yourself more clearly and that echoing back technique is something you’ve got down to a T’

Or perhaps you need to focus on making a really strong application for a new job or to prepare for a challenging interview?

These are crucial steps in the career change process, so I’ve developed sessions to make sure you can really shine - on paper and in person. Whether it’s in adapting your CV and application documents to gain that all important interview, or in strengthening your interview performance, I have the very best advice for you in these two clarity sessions:

I wouldn’t hesitate in recommending Becky to anyone who is seeking to improve their understanding and opportunities of finding work that is meaningful to them.

Re-gaining Perspective with a Career Clarity Call

 

My clients have asked for help with a wide range of career topics that were basically driving them crazy.

You know the phrase, 'analysis paralysis'? Well this sums it up pretty well.

I designed the Career Clarity Call to expose the confusing world inside your head to the cool light of day. 

 That in itself is a relief, but even more welcome shifts include moving from:

 

confusion to a clear new perspective

inertia to fresh momentum

isolation to sharing your ideas

feeling lost to creating a clear plan

hopelessness to energy and motivation

anxiety to a clear and confident approach

uncertainty to conviction that you’ve found your right path

But as well as offering a bespoke Career Clarity Call framed to your particular career dilemma, I’ve also developed Career Clarity Calls that focus on each of the following themes:

Career Change Re-ignition

You’ve got some clarity about what you’re looking for and have made some progress, but now you’ve lost belief and momentum. This Career Clarity Call will help you get clear on just what is keeping your career change stuck in a rut and develop a new strategy with clear tactics to get back into energised and focused action. By identifying the WHYs that are driving your career change, you’ll re-engage with the best motivators you have, then brainstorm new tactics to help you get going again with renewed conviction and self-belief.

You can also request my free guide: How to to Re-vitalize Your Career Change here. Based on the most common sticking points career changers face, I’ve suggested 20 solutions and 21 resources to get you back in motivated action.

You have ideas about the kind of work you want to explore for your new direction, but you’re not making progress in finding the information and people to help build up a detailed picture.

I am in the right place right now.
How do I know that? Because I have aligned what I do with who I am. I come back to my 5 values every week and adjust as necessary…/… So life is good, and I thank you for your encouragement to think things through to get the clarity I use every day.

How does it work?

First, get in touch via the button at the bottom of this page to arrange a 30-minute Discovery Call. This will help me understand the topic you want to focus on and see whether the Career Clarity Call is the best option for you. You can also let me know if you’re interested in one of the themed Career Clarity Calls (Booster, Connections or Interview). As coaching is such a personal connection, we'll also check out how well we connect in the coaching relationship.

If you decide to go ahead, I'll send you a brief questionnaire so we can really pin down the topic before the session.

Then, through a 60-minute coaching conversation, you'll have the chance to explore whichever of these approaches is most relevant to your situation:

 

check out if your idea has real potential for you

spark new ideas

connect with what you really want 

explore your options with confidence 

brainstorm ways forward

gain clarity on your strengths

shape high impact but authentic interview answers

sharpen your interview answers and which examples to use

research your target organisation, including creating great questions for them

ditch your fears and procrastination

break through the stagnation

create a clear plan

get straight into action

create effective new strategies for your new career path

 

And after our call, I'll send you a summary of our discussion and agreed actions. You'll also be able to book a follow-up session at a separate rate if you would find that helpful. But there is absolutely no obligation to do this - many find just one call is all they need to spur them into planning their future.

 

Say farewell to the inside of your head

and hello to your true future!

 

Can't I do this for myself? How exactly can a career coach help?

If you want someone on your side who really understands the rhythms of career-change, who will actively listen to you, hold a mirror up to your hopes and dreams, honour them, and give you the confidence to choose well then get into purposeful action, you need a career coach!

 

The Career Clarity Call is priced at £95

What will doing nothing cost you?

 

But don't take my word for it - here’s what my clients have to say:

I arranged a Career Clarity Call with Becky to discuss my career options.
However, it became clear during the call that that I was actually unsure about my ability to support myself as a solopreneur - not about my chosen path. I’m now confident that I’m abundantly qualified to do this work and I’m ready to claim it!
Becky helped me to identify what was fuelling my insecurities, so that I can break those habits and create ones that support my confidence.
— Linda Raven Coach, Blogger, and Farmer, U.S.
Talking to Becky at a time when I felt ‘all over the place and turning in circles’ I came out of this very enjoyable conversation feeling much lighter and re-energized. Becky genuinely valued my ideas and in her non-directive yet very systematic and grounded approach she helped me to prioritize my next steps. Now I only wish I had talked to Becky sooner.
— S.B. - University Lecturer, Austria
