Great Expectations

It’s common for people to reach a milestone in their career, or a role they’ve worked hard to attain, only to find that it doesn’t bring the fulfilment they expected. Whether you’re a parent, a leader, or a CEO, you might have had dreams of feeling fully satisfied - yet are left wanting more.

Feeling flat or dissatisfied is a sign that something needs to change. While it can be uncomfortable, it can also be a catalyst, pushing you to explore a new path.

Often, these feelings stem from obligations we’ve imposed on ourselves, not ones we necessarily need to fulfil.

I recently worked with a client who felt restless and discontented but trapped. Despite being at the peak of her career, she couldn't see a way through.

Rather than planning an exit, we worked on adapting her current situation, allowing her to reshape her role rather than abandon it entirely.

We made several shifts which not only relieved her stress but freed up the time she hadn’t realised she was losing, so that she could enjoy work and life again.

So listen to the inner rumbles - maybe it's time to re-assess how you work with fresh eyes, rather than exiting left.
