Discover what gives you meaning

What would it be like to both love your work AND be successful while being true to who you are?

We all long to be happy. To have careers that look and feel like us, that use the best of our skills and talents but feel meaningful and support the vision we’ve always had for ourselves.

For those of us who find ourselves in unfulfilling careers, we want to enjoy going to work every day, while knowing our hard work is creating financial security for ourselves without sacrificing on our health, relationships and self-confidence. Is it really impossible to have it all?

For others of us, we wish we could show up as us and have that be enough – to have a style of leadership that feels natural and easy to do, that doesn’t make us feel like we’re changing who we are in order to do well or be accepted or be seen as a leader.

But what’s true for all of us whether we want career fulfilment or to lead authentically is that we long for easier lives. We long to feel free. We want to thrive.

The Discover What Gives You Meaning workshop is the first step for all of us to return to heart of who we are and embrace our truth so that we can create careers and leadership styles that are authentic, support the reality of who we are and celebrate our individuality while meeting our needs.

Discovering who you are will help you in so many ways

If you’re here because you want a more fulfilling career, this workshop will help you:

• Meet yourself in a whole new way and get to the heart of what makes you YOU
• Stop wishing you were someone else so that you could just fit in and be happy with the types of roles and companies that seem to satisfy everyone else
• Start accepting your uniqueness with confidence, see it’s a strength, and give you the courage to solve for it by deliberately making choices that will help you to thrive as YOU without having to change
• Understand why you‘ve been unhappy or burnt out because you can see where you are living in misalignment with your truth and courageously own what you need in order to thrive and say “No” to the wrong situations that will take you away from yourself and compromise your needs
• Love yourself more than you ever have
• Have the language to speak about and position yourself towards roles and opportunities that make the most of who you are and what you uniquely bring to the table

If you’re here because you want to lead more authentically, discovering who you are will help you:

• Meet yourself in a whole new way and get to the heart of what makes you YOU
• Feel more confident in your skin and have unshakeable knowledge that you’re good enough because you accept yourself and trust your uniqueness
• Lead with integrity without pretending, shape-shifting, or changing who you are to fit in, be accepted, or be seen as competent
• Effortlessly shine and stand out for you who are and what you bring to the table that’s different to all the other leaders out there.
• Have the language to speak about and position yourself towards roles and opportunities that make the most of who you are and what you uniquely bring to the table
• Build authentic trust-based relationships as you win people over based on your authenticity, integrity and values
• Build a stronger team as your authenticity and integrity inspires them to embrace their strengths, take risks, and courageously bring their full selves to the table

In the Discover What Gives You Meaning online or 1x1 workshop you will:

1. Discover who you uniquely are and what gives you meaning - I lead you through my comprehensive 6-dimension Sources of Meaning framework that goes beyond just finding out your personality, following passion or thinking about what contribution you want to make.
2. Translate your findings into what it means for your career choices, the type of company you work for, the type of role that will help you thrive, the leadership style that will come most naturally to you, and much more.
3. See how well you’re already doing so that you can do more of it
4. Help you to trust your authenticity using evidence from your own life
5. Take action to bring more meaning into your daily life by doing a simple growth practice to start seeing immediate results

What’s different about my method

The key difference maker is that I take a comprehensive view of both the obvious and unseen elements that drive our sense of fulfilment in life – not just the usual things we’ve been taught to focus on. My Sources of Meaning framework captures not one but 6 dimensions of who you are, giving you a rich 360-degree view of who you are and what matters to you, including your personality, values, wellbeing needs and 3 other critical areas.

If we just follow passion but get stuck having to pretend to be someone else, we will eventually burnout. If we focus only on our “purpose” and contribution to the world, but we don’t enjoy the on-the-ground work we’re doing in the daily grind of execution, we will run out of steam. If we are in a job that lets us be ourselves but we aren’t able to meet our basic needs, we will lack security and be unable to improve our lives.

I shared my own difficult experience with this in one of my early podcast episodes: What if finding your purpose doesn’t make you happy?

My personal crisis of meaning was the birthing ground of the Sources of Meaning 6-dimension framework I designed to help my coaching clients, and now you, to ovoid the same trap I fell into.

So, if you’re ready to get it right once and for all, let’s dive in!
