Career transitions

One life. Make it count.

The average person spends a gazillion hours at work during the span of their career. Chances are that your work affects almost every other area of your life.Besides giving your life a lot of zest, your work is also your best shot at contributing to a better world.

Are you ready to go exploring for that ultimate combination of a good life, a really satisfying job and the opportunity to make a positive dent in the world?

Be curious. Go exploring.

It often begins with a small ache in your stomach on Sundays. Work has become joyless and meaningless, and you feel out of alignment. I was there. And I didn’t do anything about it until someone else took the decision for me.

Finding a new path was no walk in the park, and I was in desperate need of a guide. My primary goal today is to be that person I wish I had by my side six years ago. I would have given an arm and a leg to have someone to ask about where to start, what to focus on, and how to deal with my professional identity crisis.

My main learning has been this: Being curious and daring to test new things is so much more interesting than clinging to your old self and being afraid of what other people will say.

  • I have identified impact areas which motivate me, and can envision myself creating the quantifiable impact I desire within a range of organisations.

  • I am more confident in my networking abilities, both with 'warm' leads, as well as 'cold' outreach. The professional journaling aspect is also a great tool for organising your networking activities. And of course the great contacts that Veslemøy has introduced me to have been invaluable!

  • There is a structured methodology in place to understand one's personal superpowers, and contextualise them in combination with existing skills and experience to focus and quantify one's approach to 'making an impact'.

  • Go into it with an open mind, with curiosity, and a growth mindset. Embrace uncertainty, and have some practical, pragmatic, back-up plans (ie part-time income streams).
