When you were growing up, what was your ambition to ‘be’...was it a nurse, a doctor, fighter pilot, tap dancer?! When I asked this question recently on my Facebook wall the responses were varied, funny, bittersweet and sometimes SPOT on for what the person was doing now.
There are often clues in these childhood ambitions about what you could/should/might do/are doing. (I wanted to be an Air Hostess, as was known, or a teacher. Mum never had to ask me what I did at primary school as I used to ‘teach’ all my dollies what I’d learned that day! She’d listen from the kitchen to find out… )
When I consider what I’m doing now, I’ve taken a huge raft of experience, lessons, highs and lows in corporate life from my own + 20 year corporate career and mixed in lessons, wisdom, strategies and stories from my clients, friends and from my own personal life (very nearly dying from Ovarian Cancer aged 16 sharpens up your “what’s important and what’s not and what’s BS and what’s not?” filter I can tell you) so I can ‘teach’ and share them. Not in a teacherly way but in a guiding, inspiring and motivational way. That’s always my intention.
Maybe there’s something in here for you?
When you look back (there are so many clues when you do) I wonder what you see about yourself?
So. This time NEXT FRIDAY 11th September – I’ll be right in the middle of hosting a Live Virtual Experience and I’d love to welcome you to take time for yourself, look back with intention and work out “what now?” for you.

So much has shifted either for you or around you or both and to take some time to consider how you want your life to be and where you want to head towards NOW, is a gift to give yourself.
