I’VE BEEN IN YOUR SHOES…. ..and ever since I’ve been on a crusade to support
successful but unfulfilled mid-life professionals to find a way out of what it
is they think they SHOULD be sticking with to finding a new working life chapter
that fills them with joy. I spent over 20 years working in senior PR and
Communication corporate roles working with some of the most famous luxury brands
in the world. For many years and for the most part I loved it - I got to travel
the world, meet interesting people, work on exciting projects and felt like I
was ‘lucky’ to work with such companies. I moved into my forties, had my second
child and as I moved into a different ‘phase’ of my life the landscape just
didn't look the same any more. Don’t get me wrong there were still parts that I
loved (which makes it even harder to make a change, I know and understand this…)
but the corporate landscape just didn't work for me anymore. I worked long hours
and travelled, hardly seeing my children except for weekends. The juggle between
family life and a busy career started to take its toll (that feeling of not
feeling like you are doing anything well) and of course I never had any time to
take care of myself, that was definitely last on the list. Finally deep down I
knew I wanted to do something different, which if you are reading this is likely
to be where you are now. It was not an easy decision to make, I know that it can
also feel like you are leaving a life and part of you behind. However with the
help of a coach I knew it was time for a change and a new challenge that gave me
the flexibility and autonomy that I craved. I retrained with The Coaching
Academy the UK’s leading coaching organisation which is ICF accredited. I now
work as a Career and Personal Performance Coach and NLP (Neuro Linguistic
Programming) Practitioner. I am a graduate in Psychology, a member of the
British Psychological Society and a licensed Firework Career Coach.
