Here’s My favourite Career coach Quote; “Find out what you like doing best, and get someone to pay you for doing it.” Katharine Whitehorn And, If someone had said that to me a decade ago, I might have thought that they were ”Extracting the Michael”.

Career coach hourly rate? I don’t charge a career coach hourly rate. That is because, you unless we have a pre-existing relationship, only the smallest increments of changes can be made within an hour. If you’ve reached the stage of considering hiring a career coach, then my guess is that you’re hoping for (or even […]
Career Coach Training: The really important thing about career coach training is knowing it’s not just the qualification, it is the whole life experience, that counts.

“What I have learned thus far in business is this: “I will be adult and I will value what I do. I will be transparent and I will discuss my career coach fees”. I say this because, if you want to build a business or engage with a career relaunch, then you too need to […]
Have you come across any career coach experts? In my experience, there is no such bloody thing! If anyone does call themselves a “Career Coach Expert” my advice would be to be very wary. Nobody is more of an expert in your career than you. What you might need are some space-holding, some triggers and nudges, and, […]

I don’t want a careers coaching job. Whilst that might seem like a bizarre statement coming who IS a careers coach, this is why I say those words: On the face of it, Careers coaching might be a majority of what I am seen to do I meet with individuals and we redesign what it is they […]
