Career Change

Have you felt stalled and stuck in a lifeless career for too long?  Are you tired of ever-present politics and incompetence?  Can you see how employment is akin to slavery?

If you want to bounce out of bed eager to do enlivening work every day – then you’re ready to claim your freedom.

CoreU Career Coaching takes an inside out approach to determining the right business for you.  Once you have complete self-awareness of who you are by discovering your Authentic Career Elements you will be in the very best position to choose or create the right business for you.

I no longer coach individuals who want to move from one job to another.  I am not the right coach for you unless you’re willing to at least explore the possibility of the freedom of self-employment or entrepreneurship.  

With my guidance you can make the best career decision and transition by choosing a business that is ideally suited to your preferred lifestyle, authentic desires, financial requirements and core nature.

  • There is no perfect business. There is only the perfect business for you.
  • You don’t have to be the perfect business founder or owner.  You just need to be and act authentically.
  • You don’t have to wait for the exact right time to launch your business.   With the right decision and right plan you can make now the right time for you.

An authentic career exploration identifies who you are so that your alignment with your business is clearly evident.  An authentic business is more calling than job, more vocation than profession.

Vocation is where your deep gladness meets the world’s deep need.  Fredrich Buechner

A vocation, from the Latin vocare (verb, to call), is a term for an occupation to which a person is specially drawn and for which they are most suited and qualified because of innate talents, strengths and abilities.

To honor individual uniqueness, in this discovery process, each path must be as unique as the individual walking it.  Coaching works best following a structure that is customized to your needs and desires.

Essential Concepts of Authentic Career Discovery

  • The Blessing of Unique Capability states that you are uniquely equipped with the ability and the capacity to bring your true calling based business idea to fruition.
  • Your special authentic business must first be discovered within and then developed without.
  • Core Calling inspired careers or businesses are more effectively created from scratch, than found already created by employers or other outside resources.  I have a strong bias for self-employment because very few employees are both intrinsically fulfilled and financially satisfied.
  • Divine Coalescence actively engages the saying, “it’s all good.”  It’s a spiritual practice of recognizing that everything counts: every mistake, experience, gift, relationship and knowledge you have ever been exposed to, has created the body of capacity that is uniquely you.  Divine Coalescence is a focusing declaration that leverages the sum total of your makeup and experience, on your own behalf, so that you may most fittingly and effectively serve humanity.
