Curated Content #9 November 2023 & Your Invite to the Career Change Summit
A monthly email for paid subscribers with curated reads, videos, podcasts and other content which have interested or inspired me this month.
Hey Friends,
I hope everyone is doing well.
The topic of ‘transition’ has been circulating me recently. Life transitions and transformation are topics I have worked with an increasing number of clients on this year. Transformational change is something I have personally experienced as I navigated a number of huge transitions in my own life and work in the last six years. In light of this, I am busy writing two pieces on my experience of transition, identity change and the pull towards greater authenticity in life, business and work. I will publish one piece in December and the second one in the new year.
In January, I will be speaking at the Career Change Summit. My topic is the role spirituality and spiritual practices can play in life transitions. The focus of this event is career change but the concepts I will speak to apply to all other life transitions. Any transition in life is hard and career change is no different. What can be unique about career change is the financial uncertainty it brings further threatening our sense of security during this period. Without developing a greater connection to self and the inner skills needed to navigate change, it can be easy to be tempted to revert back to a safer position or your previous career.
In any life transition, you must accept you are inviting uncertainty in your life and you need to develop your ability to cope with this. Transformation or transition of any kind requires us to enter a ‘void’ - a place where we have stopped being one version of ourselves but have yet to become another. Having clarity of belief and practices to hold ourselves in the uncertainty of this ambiguity builds the resilience needed to go the distance when it comes to any form of change in life.
Topics I will be covering include:
My personal experience of career change
Belief and belief systems
The connection between spirituality and purpose in life
The soul and having a sense of calling in life
Mid-life transitions and awakening
The role of spiritual practices in building resilience during transitions.
If there is question/topic you would like me to address during the session, please do let me know.
It will be an online event and free to attend for a limited period time so if career change or life transitions interest you, please join us! There will be many other speakers sharing their perspectives and research on the topic. The link to register is here: Career Change Summit.
Until next month,
