Is this you?

You have been sailing along through life.  Work, family, friends – all seem to be going well.  But deep inside, something is off. You argue with yourself that everything is fine, because, well, as you look about, it is.  You’ve done everything ‘right.’ People admire, even envy your life. But still, you are not 100%. There is a sense of something missing.  Something is off. You aren’t ok.

Call it a mid-life crisis.  Call it the crossroads. Call it career fatigue.  Call it fear.

It happens.

The difference now is what you do when this does happen?

There are many things we can do on our own.  There are many things we can learn to do on our own. But sometimes you need to appreciate you can’t see the forest for the trees.  Too often we don’t see where we are, who we are, or what it is that we are not happy about. We blame other things or people or work or traffic or the dog.

It can be anyone or anything.  It’s because we are lost.

More, we know we are because this isn’t us.  This isn’t who we are or think we are. We are not these unhappy people.  We don’t like being annoyed by everything.

We want to get back to who we are.  To the people, we like being and doing the things with family and friends that we used to do

That’s why you reach out to someone to help you find out where you are and what direction you want to go in.

I’ve been where you are and I can help you overcome the questions arising.

That is why you work with me.  To get your clarity. To see what it is that you see as a priority.  To set your course for your life.

I found myself in your shoes.  I fought with myself about changing course from what I had always done to what I had always wanted to do.

It doesn’t mean it will be easy.  It doesn’t mean it will be hard. What it means is you can go on your own and take a long time (and miss out on a lot of happiness and times) or you can ask for help and get to your answers, your questions, your new direction quicker, without lost time.

It doesn’t always mean change.  It can be figuring out how you got off track, and how to get you back on.  It can be realizing when you stopped doing something that was meaningful and why you did.  Is it time to re-engage? It can be looking at what your priorities and beliefs are and seeing what still resonates and serves you.

Change is not always huge and cataclysmic.  Sometimes it is small, smart, and well placed.
