Navigating Direction and Spontaneity in Career Choices

I'd love your feedback, send me a message

Have you got lost in the details and lost sight of the direction you originally set off in?

That is something my latest guest, Vanessa Rubera, and I regularly see with our clients and is the topic of the latest episode of the Simple Reflections Podcast.

Vanessa isa good friend and mentor from Vermont in the USA.  She is a Clarity Coach and the author of “Conversations with a Camel”.

During the episode Vanessa and I touch on the power of coaching and that as coaches, our main ole is to hold space knowing that neither our clients or ourselves know the answer… the answer comes from us collectively slowing down and seeing what can be created from there.

We all have the capacity to set a direction that feels right and be comfortable in the not knowing of how we get there.  Unfortunately, what usually happens, we lose sight of the direction and become overly focused on the details.  As General Dwight D Eisenhower is famously quoted as saying: “Plans are worthless, but planning is everything.”

I’d love to hear how looking at the bigger picture of the direction of travel has served you over getting lost in the details of how to get there?
