To experience a full and happy life, it’s important to have a career that you love. But a recent study concluded that over 50% of Americans are dissatisfied (if not downright unhappy) with their work. This dissatisfaction can lead to stress, anxiety and even depression. This unhappiness can also bleed over into your personal life, negatively impacting the relationships you have with friends and loved ones.
Career coaching can help you choose or completely change a career at any stage in your life. Embarking on a new career, though exciting, can also be incredibly stressful, and most people find they could use some help navigating the journey.
Career coaches have been trained to provide concrete career information resources and discuss career development. In a career coaching session, you and your counselor may discuss:
- Your particular skills or talents to determine which career may align best
- Higher educational requirements and opportunities
- Potential earnings of various careers
- Transferable skills, Impact and Professional Branding
- Daily working environments/company culture
- Opportunities for advancement
