Difficult can mean various things for people – it could mean an issue with your health, a transition in your life, a depressive period after a loss, a break-up, relocation, a rejection of any kind – the list is endless.

As such adversity and setbacks are frequently part of an individual’s coaching journey as they offer a good opportunity to explore options and define what betterment & well-being in life look like to you.

Besides the above 2020 has been a tough year: people and organizations have spent the past year transitioning to the world of remote work due to Covid-19 pandemic. Enabling this change and accommodating it into our everyday lives has not been easy. Some of us have been stressed about the pandemic, including dealing with the blurring lines between home & work. Some of you have experienced the feeling of being constantly overstretched, juggling and balancing the nuances of this new normal.

I’m fully on the same page: this new normal comes with new challenges and new expectations.

The uncertainty and the constant pressure to operate has also led to greater levels of stress and burnout. For the latter a recent survey (Source Blind, ‘The Evolution of the burnout’) found that 73% of the working professionals are now experiencing burnout for 3 key reasons: 20.5% blaming an unmanageable workload, 10.8% citing a lack of control over their work and 11.1% pointing to a lack of empathy from managers.
Furthermore given the absence of face time, most employees are worried about their visibility, delivering impactful work & career progression.
The weight of exhaustion and high stress is compounded by the fear of slowed career growth and a general lack of direction.

This all together requires us to redefine objectives, to remodify them to fit our new situations. I can help you find your way in doing just that, and with that – Helping You Thrive in Life and Career.
