Keep up to date with my blog posts on various topics covering Business, Life and Career Coaching. I am also working on a motherhood blog. This is a personal project designed to be a raw, realistic yet entertaining look into my life as a mum of 2 young chilidren. I call it my Dance of Motherhood.
In the last few weeks I have received 2 calls relating to working overseas. Now the calls have not been along the lines of “should I work overseas?” more about how to get their partners onside. Let’s look at compromise and how you can have a discussion with your loved ones about whether this is the right thing for you to pursue now.
I am often asked by my clients how to decide whether they are choosing the right role. Who has the crystal ball to know where this job will take them? My ’5 point plan’ will help you flesh out the most important decisions you need to make when looking for a job and before accepting an offer of employment.
Happy Valentine’s Day.
So who is on your list this year? Will you send a card to anyone?
How about approaching your job search with the Valentine’s Day concept in mind?
While chatting with a business client the other day she revealed something quite raw. It took a little time to build up to it but the bottom line was ‘I cannot find my mojo, which would be fine if we were approaching the Christmas break but that was nearly 6 weeks ago now!”
I acknowledged her for her honesty. This was our first catch up since the break as she had wanted to have some much needed time out and enjoy the space this gave her both mentally and physically. Now this statement worried her as she felt like she did not appear to have the mojo or desire to crack on with things in her business.
So how do you go about locating your mojo?
I was invited to an event last night held by a Brisbane based business called excelleration where the attendees would learn about “1st World Problems – real world solutions” presented by Emily Diamond.
The topic appealed to me on 2 levels. Having recently moved to Brisbane it would be worthwhile connecting with some like minded individuals in an environment with an interesting topic.
As you may recall I am also striving to live a life of Less is More this year so finding out more about this from a global perspective appealed.
Imagine being on a train. You know where it is heading, how many carriages it has, what stops have gone by so far and what stops are ahead of you. Feels safe. Secure in the knowledge you will reach your chosen destination. Now imagine someone asking you to get off that train. Step onto another. With a blindfold on! No idea what the journey looks like.

Instead of writing a post about New Year Resolutions this year I want to make a “Statement of Change for 2012″.
As mentioned in my previous blog post 2011 has been an emotionally stretched year.
With an interstate move in 2012 it is a chance for me to really embrace change and challenge myself personally and professionally.
At this time of year I often reflect on what kind of year I have had. Where I have been stretched, challenged and inspired.
Who came into my life.
Who moved on.
What I want to get out of next year. Here is my round up.
