“The right career path will just hit me. I’m going to suddenly realize, if I pay attention to the universe, what my calling, purpose or path needs to be.”
If you are .1% of the population, then the above is absolutely true.
Grow was founded for the remaining 99.9%.
Now, some folks don’t really question what they are “meant to do.” Others ponder the conundrum daily. For way too many years of my life, I fit into the daily ponderer category, practically obsessing over finding the right answer, wondering if I’d ever figure it out. Each year I felt more and more at sea, increasingly frustrated by my inability to steer my own ship.
Finally, something did hit me, but it wasn't the aforementioned career path epiphany.
I had stopped by a coffee shop, following an hour of yoga-induced enlightenment, to order my usual: a decaf soy sugar-free vanilla no whip cappuccino. While waiting for the barrista to create my semi-neurotic concoction, I perused the crowded bulletin board for something remotely interesting. A flyer, sandwiched in between ads for pet sitting, non-smoking roommates and sky diving instruction, caught my eye. It announced a seminar for career design.
Career "design," I mused. Sounded interesting.
On a whim I attended the seminar, taught by a career coach (I'd never heard of one before!) and felt, for the first time, a glimmer of hope that I just might find some career answers by, gulp, asking for help.
With career coaching, I learned the value of asking myself effective, razor sharp questions about my past experiences, interests and values. Along with results from a sophisticated aptitude assessment and how they relate to career patterns, I began steering my ship in the perfect direction: my own.
That seminar presenter, best-selling author and career guru Anthony Spadafore, eventually became my mentor. After years of training and certification, I embarked on creating my own career guidance practice.
I have indeed found my true calling: helping others find theirs.
And now I invite you to come along, and embark on a course that is truly your own.
