ARE YOU STUCK?

Welcome to STUCK?

All of us at some point lose our sense of direction, very often when we reach a crossroads - career or otherwise - in our life.

We can lose sight of where we’re going, of what’s important to us, of what our purpose is. In short, we can feel stuck.

It’s at times like these that STUCK? can provide a helping hand.

Why are you here?

Perhaps…

You’re still in your 30s. You did well at school. You did well at University. You have a good job… but you never followed your dream. It’s not the life you imagined as a child. You’re living somebody else’s life. “What can I do?”

You’re in your 60s or 70s facing retirement. There’s financial insecurity, worries about becoming isolated, and a lack of identity after decades of “being someone”. “What can I do?”

You’re in your teens or early 20s. Maybe you liked school, maybe you didn’t. Maybe you have qualifications, maybe you don’t. The future is unclear and scary. “What can I do?”

How do I help?

I help you move forwards by gaining clarity in four distinct areas:

Values

What matters to you? Why is it important?

Self-awareness

Knowing yourself - what are you good at?
What are your strengths and your weaknesses?

Goals

Where do you want to get to?
What do you want to achieve?

Roadmap

What is your plan?
How are you going to achieve your goals?

The Sessions

Sessions are usually held fortnightly online via Zoom. They last 60 minutes each, and there will be homework and exercises to be done in between. We will need at least 8.

Intensive one-day face-to-face sessions are available by arrangement.

Who am I?

For 30 years I have worked in the field of People Development, often in large organisations such as British Airways, BP, Google, Tesco and McDonalds.

During those years I’ve helped thousands of people develop their self-awareness and understanding of their values and their strengths, and what makes them special. Seeing people grow and change is so rewarding.

But it wasn’t always like this. In my 20s and 30s I spent years - far too many years - in the wrong career, one that was dissatisfying and going nowhere. But I also had two young children and a big mortgage. So, getting off the merry-go-round wasn’t easy. I felt really stuck.

So, if you’re in a difficult place, if you feel stuck, I can empathise with you. I really do know what those feelings are like. They’re awful.

But I also know that I can help you turn things around, help you see the options and possibilities that you can’t see at the moment, and help you envisage and achieve a future of direction and positivity,

If that sounds attractive then please get in touch.
