Loving What You Do For Work Looks Likes . . .

Loving what you do for work can exist outside the 9-5 realm, beyond the employee label.

Loving what you do might look like having parallel careers. (e.g. a tech company project manager who's also a caterer or a professional dancer who teaches movement classes at high schools in between gigs).

Loving what you do could be having your own business.

Maybe it's a hybrid of your own biz and working for someone else.

Careers look different today than when I was a kid.

Back then it was all about finding that ONE job that paid your bills.
Then you advance along that path.
Anything outside of this paradigm was unreliable and to be avoided.

Btw, there's nothing wrong with pursuing the C-suite track at one company if that's your jam.
Just ask yourself if that's really your thing.
Introspection might reveal you're pursuing your parents' dreams, not yours.

What I know about myself, my personality, how I feel most alive, is that I'm not the lifelong-employee-at-one-place-kind-of person. I've tried to fit myself into that box, but it doesn't work for me.

This might be you too.
Doesn't make you unreliable.
Doesn't mean you're not the "commitment type." 
It means that's how you're wired.
It means this is how you thrive at work. 

Consider your desired LIFESTYLE, not just what you do for a living. 
How does your profession fit with how you want your life to look and feel?
As opposed to, how can you fit your life around your work? 

You can afford to imagine the conditions that will make you actually love and want to go into your job. 

Maybe it's having multiple well-paid part-time positions whose sum total gives you the flexibility to visit that cute beach town every other Thursday to Saturday.

You know what your desired lifestyle is.
You know what that work life looks like.
Even if you don't think you do.

You just haven't had the opportunity to articulate it boldly and clearly.
Fear that your dream isn't possible, is unreasonable, or unrealistic prevents you from acknowledging your truth.

So instead you say, "I don't know what I want."

How 'bout we not say THAT anymore?

Give yourself the time and space to contemplate (and write out) all your juicy work and life conditions.
And tell no one about it (except your life coach, of course).
At least don't tell people yet.
Don't need others' skepticism trampling on your seedling ideas.

Now if you're mind is blown and you're too overwhelmed to flesh out your dream career and dream life on your own, then I've got you.

Hit me up for support through one-on-one coaching.
By the time we're done working together, you'll say, "I love what I do."
If you don't, I'll give you back half of your coaching investment and I'll continue working with you for free until you love your life and have your dream career.

Book your consultation and let's get to it.
