I Can’t: Figure Out What I Want to Do with My Life

Most people make career changes when they’re at the end of their rope. As a result, they often make big life changes that make them no happier than they were. 

Before you hand in your two-weeks notice, this workshop will show you how to make a smart career change that will lead you in a direction you really want to go in life. 

In this workshop, you’ll learn:

1. how to get crystal clear on what’s most important to you, 
2. how to see more fabulous options for what else you might do, and 
3. the crucial part of career exploration (that most people skip) that will guarantee your career change will be a step in the right direction. 

If you’re not as happy as you want to be at work and are wondering what else might be possible, this workshop is perfect for you.

For this I Can’t edition, Mac & Cheese is partnering with Sheila Devi of Two Steps Forward. Sheila is a Certified Professional Coach. She helps her career coaching clients to figure out their best next steps and to navigate their career transitions with ease.
