Change is something I work with a lot as a coach whether its change that we choose like a change of job, or house move or change we don’t such as bereavement or redundancy I recently worked with someone in my intensive 4 week package to support them to take the first steps to change, they told me when they came to me that they had known they wanted to make change for 15 years – 15 YEARS – what had stopped them taking the first step for 1 and a half decades?? Fear of now knowing… They were worried about not knowing if it would work out… worried about the impact on the people around them…scared it might be the wrong thing. So they stayed in a situation that they KNEW wasn’t working… they KNEW had a negative effect on them and the people around them…they KNEW was the wrong thing for 15 years, …and before you think that’s longer that most people would wait, 15 years ago was 2009 (for those of a certain age- like me- that will seem like yesterday!) Time can slip by, our desire for control, for clarity and certainly can make us paralysed to taking any action, creating resistance. During periods of change I hear people say ‘I just wish I knew what was going to happen if I…’ ‘I feel like I don’t have control of my own life…’ We are all creatures of habit, our brains like to feel like they can predict what is going to happen…. And we are know the saying ‘Change is the only constant in life’, things are constantly evolving, the situations we live in, the people around us and us ourselves What would it be like if we release the pressure of having to know exactly how things were going to play out (spoiler: we never do) and just focused our attention on the next step, the next action that we feel might get us closer to what we desire. What if we focused on the person that we are seeking to become, and take action like they would NOW. What would you be doing differently? My client has made the leap and is already trusting that they have everything they need, they shared this feedback; “I can’t believe I have waited so long, I was so focused on getting it right I forgot that I am really good at learning and adapting and I can do that here too. Thank you for supporting me to learn the tools to help me have the conversations I was avoiding for 15 years!” If you are ready for change, I am launching my new 10 week course CONNECT in 2024. My intention for this course is to create space and introduce a tailor made suite of techniques and tools to support you make the change you desire in 2024, to connect to the person you desire to be. I am running it this time for a hugely discounted price of £250 in return for feedback. Get in touch if you are curious to find out more, or jump on a possibility call, I would love to hear from you
