From Overwhelmed to Focused

So many options…how to focus? Perhaps you can relate. Through coaching, Emily went from feeling overwhelmed to excited.

 

Frameworks & Tools to Support Career Clarity

Before launching a job search, it’s important to get clear on what you have to offer and what you’re seeking.

Erica guided Emily to tap into the power of the SkillScan Self-Assessment and Online Storyteller by OneLifeTools to clarify her strengths, interests, and desires. Listen in as Emily shares about her experience.

 

Narrowing Down Options & Engaging With Your Network

With a clearer understanding of herself and what she was looking for, Emily was able to narrow down her options and focus in on a few industries and roles of interest.

From there, she was ready to engage with her network intentionally. And her timing was just right. She reached out to a former colleague she enjoyed working with, and discovered an opportunity that closely matched what she was seeking.

Through the interview process, Emily felt confident asking questions to confirm that it was the right opportunity for her.

 

Feeling Excited for New Professional Experience at a Startup

Emily is excited for this new chapter. In particular, she’s looking forward to being part of a startup and having more opportunity to travel.
