It has been quite a while since I wrote a post. I have been busy working on several projects, at least one of which I mentioned in an earlier post. At long last I finished my book, but it requires significant edits, which I expected. I am putting it on the back burner until the new year when I can be my all into it.
I had an idea for a course/program designed to help women in support roles, such as administrative and executive assistants, get past roadblocks that stand in the way of getting what they deserve. If you recall, I was an administrative assistant before I went back to school. It took a near-nervous breakdown from stress to open my eyes that there was something better out there.
I pondered whether there were women who felt like I did, underappreciated and overworked and worse, giving in and not dreaming of anything better. I didn't want that for anyone else, so I decided to discover if things had changed for admins or if they remained the same. I reached out to almost 700 women and was fortunate enough to interview twenty extraordinary ladies. I was appalled at how little had changed since I left business. I looked over all the responses and decided I would create a program to help them feel confident enough to dream big, create an achievable goal, and set a plan in motion to get them to the finish line. This is what has been keeping me so busy.
I wanted to share the happy news that "Thrive Beyond Your Nine-to-Five" will be launched for its pilot run at the beginning of the year. I am thrilled many of the women who I interviewed are on board. I am excited to start the journey with them, and I anticipate that we will all leave the experience changed for the better.
I plan to open this course to the general public sometime after the pilot and promote it on several sites. I will keep you all posted on how it is going and let you know when to expect the publication of my book, "Switching Currents: Turning Negative Thoughts into Positive Actions."
I haven't turned my back on my one-on-one coaching business. If you are interested in booking a free session, click here. Everyone needs a coach once in a while, even me.
I want to wish you all the happiest of holidays, no matter what you celebrate! Let the spirit of the season fill you with joy and happiness.
Always remember, be resolved.
Linda
