Ever felt like "This can't be it until retirement?" - Liana did. She came to me wanting to make a career change, but she didn't know what that would look like.

5 months later, she is building her first startup in the mental health space. With her son as a big motivation to build this legacy, she is making business models, pitch decks, starting networking conversations, and learning a million new things on the way.

It is a joy to be her career coach and walk alongside her on this journey - that started by going from career confusion to clarity on what she wants from work & life.

I know Liana's story will inspire you. Enjoy!

Do you want to set stronger boundaries in your work and life? Or have you been setting boundaries but people are walking all over them?

This might seem like a small nuisance, but weak or non-existent boundaries are putting your career & health at risk.

People who 'do it all' don't get promoted.

People who rarely say 'no' don't do their best work.

People who put themselves last burn out when the workload is overwhelming.

In this episode, you'll learn about 5 easy ways to use your language to set stronger boundaries. These are little tweaks, adjustments, and word swaps that you can try out immediately.

My clients have gotten promotions just from implementing these tips - because strong boundaries are a form of leadership.

My clients have also gotten out of burnout by using these tips to set boundaries.

Enjoy listening!

Connect with Eleonora on ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠LinkedIn⁠⁠.

-----------------------------------------

Eleonora started coaching with me because she wanted to change her career - but it brought her so much more than that.

She pivoted from being employed as a project manager to now being an independent consultant - doing the same work at a higher pay, with more freedom to live life on her terms.

Her career change has been a great success for her professional life - but our coaching has had a big impact on her overall wellbeing. She learned how to balance her professional ambitions with 'bare-minimum-day's' filled with forest walks, moves on the couch, and simply being 'unproductive'.

Listen to Eleonora share her vulnerable story of finding work happiness - and the continuing work (of art!) in progress, which is her career.

So you are unhappy in this job, but you don't know what to change into?

This is the hardest truth about making a career change 👇

💡 You only know what you know.

You've been on this path for years, climbing the ladder. But now that goal doesn't seem appealing anymore. You are drained, unfulfilled, stressed, and bored but when someone asks "What would you like to do instead?" - you go blank.

The solution to finding different jobs that are an unexpected match made in heaven is the Career Manifesto.

This is the tool I developed for and with my clients to create a career checklist to end all career checklists.

The key is that it goes infinitely deeper than a desired salary range or job title, allowing you to see beyond what you know.

This is what gets my clients the career changes they long for and lasting work happiness.
