Life Coach for Career Changes
Posted on July 31, 2016 by Erika Bischoff, One of Thousands of Life Coaches on Noomii.
Want to make a career change or maximize your potential in your current job - life coaching is a great choice as you get a career coach and more.
Career change doesn’t mean that you need to find a new job but it does mean that something that isn’t working in your job should change. A coach is a great way to help discover what to change and how to make the change.
Often clients feel stuck in their job and they tend to stay stuck because they feel overwhelmed or lost in how to make the change.
• The Golden Handcuffs: the benefits package is so good we don’t want to give it up so we stay put.
• Lack of Passion: we stay stuck in our job because we don’t feel a passion to do something else; we sit waiting to find this passion before we make a move.
• Fear of Change: we catastrophize all the different scenarios that could go wrong if we make a change and then tell ourselves it’s not so bad to stay where we are.
• Confidence Deficit: we don’t believe we have the capability to learn or do something new so we decide to stay where it’s safe and comfortable rather than go into a discomfort zone.
Regardless of the reasons, it is important to find satisfaction in your job since most of us spend a good portion of our time at our jobs. A life coach can help you identify the specific factors that brings satisfaction to your job and then help you to create a plan. Sometimes, it can just take some focused and specific steps in your current job to make the change; other times it may take more time and action to make significant changes. Either way a life coach will be there step by step to help guide the process and provide support.
A healthy work/life balance is important in the overall management of our life and how much balance we put into the work portion is individual to each person. However, no matter the balance ratio, if the work portion is a negative then there is risk it will negatively impact the life portion. All of us should have the opportunity to have a positive work balance.
