Coaching for Life
Coaching is about developing the tools to move your life in the direction you want. We all want to live our best possible life - in our health, relationships, career direction, work performance, work life balance, retirement – or in anything that really matters to you.
Personal coaching is focused on working with you to:
- Identify meaningful values, goals and direction
- Understand your strengths (what moves you forward) and know your blocks (what's holding you back)
- Develop strategies to work toward developing new habits and achieving your goals
- Coaching strategies are tailored to your needs, and may include:
Managing Blocks and Obstacles
There are often times when we're motivated and ready to take action toward our goals. And then there are times when we feel blocked.
The three areas that tend to block people from taking action are:FEELINGS ~ such as nerves, fear, embarrassment, anxietyTHOUGHTS ~ maybe self-doubts like "I can't do it" ,"What if I fail?"BEHAVIOURS ~ like procrastination, avoidance, self-sabotage
Unhelpful feelings, thoughts and behaviours can create an 'action gap' between knowing what we want to do, and actually doing it. At Flourish Careers & Coaching, you will receive coaching support to assist you to identify your blocks and to develop strategies to bridge that action gap!

Coaching for Retirement (or semi-retirement)
Retirement is usually our final career transition. It can be an exciting time of possibilities and opportunities, free from the time and energy constraints of work. It can also be a time when people feel lost or uncertain. Yet, beyond financial planning, people often fail to prepare for this transition.
In planning for retirement, it's vital to get financial resources in order. But there is also benefit in reviewing the social, psychological, cognitive, physical and motivational resources available to support you to live your best possible life in retirement. There are many stages of retirement. If at any stage you aren't satisfied with your retirement, you can do something about it. It may be helfpul to review your resources, and to develop strategies to build the retirement that works for you. It can also be helpful to review your retirement planning if life throws you a curve ball of unexpected change. What will your retirement be in the face of change?

At Flourish Careers & Coaching we work together toward planning for your retirement. There is no 'set-program'. Service and support is always based on your needs and goals, and your timeframes. And you will receive support at whichever stage of retirement you are in - semi-retirement, planning for retirement, or for those already retired.
Services may include support in the areas of creating your values-based vision, building happiness habits, goal planning, and making connections. For those considering maintaining a connection with paid work, there is also the option for career support to explore different forms of work such as part time, contract, consulting, or the 'encore' career (the one you've always wanted to try!)

VISION
Identify your strengths and values - create a vision of the person you want to be, and what you want this part of your life to be about.
HAPPINESS
Understand the scientifically-grounded building blocks of a happy and meaningful life. Learn the habits of thinking, feeling and behaving that support wellbeing.
PLANS & GOALS
Set and work toward goals. The focus is not only to create a plan, but also to build the skills of planning to enable you to adapt flexibly to the inevitable changes of life.
CONNECTIONS
Take steps to connect with actions of meaning and purpose - big and small - in your retirement. This could be about connection with people, community, activities, leisure or work.

Staying well and being resilient is always important - but at times of change and transition it's crucial. Wellbeing isn't just "nice to have" - it's an essential tool in achieving goals and managing change.

Stress Management
Stress management can be about using effective coping - physical, cognitive and psychological. And stress managment is also about engaging in good recovery.
Mindfulness
Mindfulness has a host of benefits for wellbeing, attention and performance. It's a skill that's easily learned, and there are many practical mindfulness strategies that you can modify to fit your life at work or home.
Helpful Habits
Habits are simply behaviours that we have repeated until they are on 'autopilot'. We can all consciously cultivate habits that support wellbeing, and enable progress toward goals that are personally meaningful.
Resilience Boosting
Resilience is the ability to 'bounce back' from challenge or adversity. Resilience is not a trait we are born with - it comes from a set of skills that we can learn and develop.
