Career Coaching – Fear

Career Coaching – Fear: I asked a client about his “Fears” before we began working together and these are the words that he said:
.
“ I had a deep Fear of failure – that I would walk away from this with fxxk all”
He then said:
“If I’m coming to you, that means I’m scared and I have no fxxking idea what to do — That’s not a great place to be. That’s even worse than spending the money – the idea that I would invest time and hope in this process — I was scared nothing would change at all.”
And, I REALLY GET that – it’s not easy to ask for help. It’s like the last bastion for some people. So, take off the masks, to show up and get vulnerable with another human being …
And THEN for nothing to change, well, that’s a place of DEEP despair.

Career Coaching – Fear

Thankfully, that is NOT what happened.
.
In fact, in in 13 years of doing this work and, hundreds of clients; it never has happened, yet.
.
For this particular human he’s walking away with a much better KNOWLEDGE of what he brings to his role, what he needs in order to be SUSTAINABLE, where his JOYS and indeed his BOUNDARIES lie. There’s nothing like someone having your back when YOU in your organisation, are THE GO-TO for EVERYTHING!
.
Saying ‘No’ is essential.
.
If you are completely exhausted and, likewise have no fxxking idea what to do — WE can problem-solve together.
