We All Need Help to Realize What We Want Most.

School Students

The most crucial phase of life to make the right decision about career and life goals. 

  • Parental pressure – obligations to fulfill parents’ dreams
  • Conflicting advice from friends, family, internet versus own interest/ passion,
  • Not able to decide on the field of study, selection of right university (local or overseas), the best strategy to plan for admission
  • Not able to see beyond getting admission to the university of choice
  • Lack of professional advice to provide guidance in helping you set clear career/life goals in life with work-life balance approach

University Students

Another important phase of life. Generally, this is the phase of setting the direction. Your whole life will revolve around job and industry you pick to start your career.

  • Feeling unprepared for future career
  • Stuck in a course you grew to dislike over time but under pressure to work in the industry relevant to your degree
  • Decision to start working immediately or plan for further studies or become an entrepreneur
  • Unsure which industry, types of roles are suitable
  • Writing an effective resume, scoring at job interviews, negotiating your first salary
  • Lack of independent advice to provide guidance customized to your circumstances

Early Career

The phase when reality hits the ground and the realization of the practical world begins. Sometimes first job is not in line with a person’s interest.

  • Your first job is not what you envisioned it to be – stay on and turn the tables around, or jump ship, or further studies 
  • Effective salary negotiation, scoring in performance reviews 
  • Work life balance seems like a myth – can it really be achieved?
  • Interests/ passion has evolved but unsure how to make a switch
  • Lack of independent advice to provide guidance for making effective career decisions

Mid Career

An interesting phase of life where you start realizing the time wasted in certain areas which had taken a toll on your health or relationship and family. Feel stagnant in your career and see no way out.

  • Not feeling valued and appreciated at work 
  • Stressful lifestyle with little time for family or personal interests
  • Having more experience than your younger colleagues but not getting the right opportunities to move up the career ladder
  • Too shy to ask for help
  • Uncertain about the possibility of switching roles or move into a new industry altogether
  • Lack of independent advice to provide guidance in helping you to successfully exit a midlife crisis
