Career Story Telling
Developing a clear, persuasive and succinct career story is a critical part of career success! The qualifications you’ve attained and the work experiences alone are usually not enough to get you into more strategic conversations, roles and opportunities.
To help you understand the importance of a career story and how to build a powerful one of your own, we’re hosting a Webinar!
More details on what other topics we will cover will be shared in upcoming newsletters and our socials so stay tuned. We look forward to hosting you on the 16th of May 2023!

C&T Reflections
Have you ever struggled to validate yourself in your career or personal life? Have noticed that you need to run your ideas past multiple friends before you can implement them? Or that you struggle to give yourself permission to grow, change, be new, be different for fear of judgement, the unknown, or of making mistakes?
If so, check out my new blog on the importance of giving yourself permission to Shine and how you can get started, below.
