Quite early on in my coaching career I was approached by a young lady working in the legal profession. I asked what she wanted to achieve and her response was quite typical of many of my clients:
- “I have no confidence”
- “I do not enjoy my job anymore”
- “I want to change careers but I don’t know what I want to do”
Sound familiar?
Christine is typical of many of my clients. When we become bored and demotivated at work we can stop caring, make more mistakes, become disinterested and start to get negative feedback – all adding to our underlying belief that we can’t be very good at our job can we?
I worked with Christine for just 3 sessions. It turned out that she knew exactly what she wanted to do, it was her lack of self belief that prevented her from believing it was achievable as it was such a change.
We worked out a plan around her goal and a few phone calls later she had taken her first steps towards her new career. For Christine she just need someone to listen to her, a space to air her thoughts and feelings without judgement or suggestion. A forum in which to make sense of the ideas and thoughts going around her head. This is what she left as a testimonial on my website.
“As a result of the sessions I had I believe that Carolyn helped me achieve my goals and had I not had the sessions with her I am sure that I would not have had the attitude to actually make things happen for myself. I felt like I was ‘stuck in a rut’ and just needed some guidance from someone who was completely independent and, having talked for hours about my issues, Carolyn soon got to grips with the basics and made me think about how I could achieve my goals. I am very pleased to say that as a result I am on my way to achieving those goals, thanks to Carolyn. I would recommend her to anyone in the future.”
