“I thought you would like to know that I have landed finally, and the outcome is fantastic.”

Woohooo!! What a joy to receive this email! (see the full email below)

Every month, I teach my highly acclaimed workshop Career Shift: Find Work You Love at General Assembly in downtown San Francisco.

I’ve taught it now 40+ times for 4 years to 600+ students. 

WOW!

Realizing that I’ve impacted hundreds of people through this class means a lot!

I often receive emails, notes, and words from my students about the transformational impact the exercises we do in the class have had on their career trajectory.

Last week, I received an email that made me really happy.

I want to share it with you to inspire you and to help you see what is possible for you or for the people in your life.

One of the attendees of my August class landed EXACTLY the work that he visualized during one of the exercises we did during the evening.

See his email below (posted and anonymized with his permission)

He even invited me to attend his celebration party! How fun!

“Hi Isabelle,

I thought you would like to know that I have landed finally, and the outcome is fantastic. And you will be excited to hear that I basically landed in exactly the kind of place where my “flow” exercise guided me, despite all my doubts that it would materialize as such.

I will be working on microsatellites at […] starting this week! I’m looking forward to getting back into space systems engineering, biking to the office, and experiencing the thrill of startup life. It seems like a really great fit for me with lots of potential. No dogs are allowed in the office, but everything else sounds amazing. 😀

Thanks again for being on my team, and reminding me that good career outcomes are possible too.

Hope things are well with you!

Cheers,

B.”

Know that this is possible for you too or for people in your life (relatives, friends, coworkers).

YES, IT IS.

What is one step you are going to take before the end of the year towards the career of your dreams? 

2019 is around the corner.

How would that feel to start 2019 knowing that you are actively taking steps toward the work you love?

Isabelle

P.S. If you are already doing the work you love, please do me a favor and share this email with people you know who need this inspiration and reminder. I bet you know people who would benefit from some inspiration.

Just say NO to the quick fix… a new approach to career counseling

Just say NO to the quick fix… a new approach to career counseling

I’ve gotta tell you something really important…

If you’re in a job you hate and you’re looking to make a career shift, do NOT look for a quick fix.

Ditch the traditional career counseling that doesn’t go deep. They give quick fixes. They tell you what jobs you should do. 

But their approach doesn’t work. People end up stuck in jobs that aren’t a match, over and over again.

You deserve so much more than that.

That’s why my program, Roadmap To A Career You Love, is different. Very different. 

I don’t want to see you get stuck in that vicious cycle. Which is why I use an approach that is more effective and authentic.

Check it out…

My program, “Roadmap To A Career You Love,” goes beyond the limitations of traditional career counseling. 

In my program, you will get permission to explore your true dreams and passions. We will build upon your unique values and strengths.

I don’t give you answers.

Instead, I help you get in touch with your inner compass so you are empowered to make decisions about your career and your life that align with your authentic self. This is the path to true fulfillment.

I would be honored to support you in finding your unique roadmap to a career you love. Join us?

To your brilliance,

This is making you sick

This is making you sick

The week before last, I wrote a bold message about what staying in work you hate is TRULY costing you. (you can find the article here if you missed it)

Well, I want to dive deeper into one of the BIGGEST costs I’ve heard so many times from the hundreds of people I’ve interviewed over the past 5 years.

It is the cost on your PHYSICAL HEALTH.

Yep, staying in work you hate is making you sick

Not sure?

Well, I collected for you real words from real people over the hundreds of interviews I’ve done, in English and in French. (notes from an interview in the pic)

I can’t sleep at night.

I wake up in the middle of the night. 

I get really anxious.

j’ai les nerfs a fleur de peau.

J’ai des crises d’anxiete.

I have high blood pressure.

I have panic attacks.

My mind is racing.

I am physically drained.

I am tired.

I have no energy.

I am exhausted.

Je suis tendu.

I am sick to my stomach.

I am gaining weight.

I eat to compensate from my stress.

I feel stress in my body.

I have a pain in my right shoulder.

Can you relate to any of these?

Or maybe you have other symptoms?

What are the physical symptoms you are suffering from as a result of work?

Not sure if they are related to work?

Well, I’m not saying that every single physical symptom you suffer from is the result of not liking your work.

However, I know that staying 5 days per week in work you hate is impacting negatively your health.

This is REAL.

Yes, staying in work you hate is making you sick!

Is that what you want?

If not, what are you going to do about it?

Today? This week?

Well, I can help.

I can help you feel alive, energized, and recharged at work and outside of work.

This is why I created my Roadmap To A Career You Love group program.

so that you:

  • Wake up excited to go to work.
  • Have a career you love that’s meaningful and fulfilling.
  • Have a career that is good for your health.

This group program is open for a limited amount of time and I run it only twice a year.

Would you stay married to someone you hate?

Do you know that you spend MORE time at work than in your romantic relationship? 

Yep.

That’s right.

Let’s do the math.

In days:

  • 5 days out of 7 days per week
  • 240 days out of 365 days/year (if you take 4 weeks of vacation/year; this is often less in North America)
  • 2,400 days out of  3,650 days for 10 years

In hours:

  • 8 hours/day (minimum; it may be even more)
  • 56 hours per week
  • 1,920 hours per year
  • 19,200 hours for 10 years.

Wow.

Imagine if you hate your work, or feel bored and unmotivated….

This is the TIME you spent unhappy and unfulfilled in your life.

It’s like being married to someone you hate, day after day, year after year.

How would that feel?

Would you stay married to someone you hate for 10, 20, 30 years?

Would you?

Probably not.

Why does work should be any different?

Why should you waste your life in work you hate for years and even decades?

Ponder that.

It does not have to be that way. 

This is why I created the program Roadmap To A Career You Love.

So that you can find work you love and that gets you excited to get out of bed every morning.

I run this group program only twice a year and it is open for enrollment now for a limited period of time.
