In our early coaching sessions, we’ll get to know each other and get clear on your intentions for the coaching series. 

We’ll also take a deep dive into the concept of purpose and exactly what you want most in life. Yes, we’ll go straight there. Because once you’ve created clarity around what you want, it’s easier to develop the self-belief you need to chase down your heart’s desires. So many women struggle to even know what the want from their work or their life. But that’s because purpose is always sold as something massive – a goal that has to be life changing for you and for others. But I promise, it’s ok to have a ‘micro-purpose’. Or to pursue an outcome for a specific season in your life. Or segment of your life. Yes, these things are definitely ok, because you have permission to have goals and aims as individual as you are.

We’ll explore self-belief and self-doubt and where they’re both showing up in your world. And I’ll share tools that will help you identify and overcome your limiting beliefs. It’s time to start building your self-belief so you can show up in your life and career in more powerful ways. Self-belief and self-trust underpin how we feel day-to-day, and when we feel confident, we can take on the world. We’ll spend time baselining your current confidence levels. We’ll dig into the stories you’re telling yourself, start sorting the facts from the fiction, and look at the things you can do immediately to start building your self-assurance by getting to know your inner protector. Together we’ll look at  the concept of giving yourself permission – whether that’s permission to take your next big leap, create some fun in your life, or to simply make space for yourself outside your career. And we’ll acknowledge that while confidence always comes in baby-steps – the more you practice the skills that build self-belief and confidence, the faster you’ll move from where you are to where you want to be.

During these sessions, we’ll delve into the actions required to create true confidence. We’ll also dive into self protective actions that can hold you back. Behaviours like letting other people’s opinions and your people-pleasing tendencies stop you from taking your first – or next – step. We’ll take a look at procrastination and it’s good friend perfectionism and we’ll dig into the damaging impact inaction has on your confidence. And we’ll look at what happens when take too much action. Because burnout has rarely been a hallmark of any sort of fabulousness. Rather, it tends to be the reason that women find themselves in the middle of a marriage breakdown or a health crisis. And it’s driven many women to step away from careers, hobbies or volunteer activities they love. If you want long lived success on your terms, you need to learn to create boundaries and develop the ability to switch off. Yes, there’s a lot in here, but understanding which action to take and when is so important for self-styling your career and your life.
