MARRIED TO YOUR CAREER AND DIVORCED FROM YOUR TRUE SELF?

YOUR CAREER IS A WORK OF HEART

You’re a discerning professional who’s delivered consistent results and excellent service to all your stakeholders. You’re competent, accomplished and wholly committed to your success and your career.

But what happens when you’ve been so committed to your career that you’ve given too much of yourself to work and lost your Sense of Self and your mojo along the way?

You confuse having a career with having a life.

And you burn yourself out.

Yup, burnout is a term that has become synonymous with work and life in recent years, and it happens when passionate, committed people like you become disillusioned with a job or career from which you’ve previously derived much of your identity and meaning.

It hits hard, doesn’t it? Realising that you don’t enjoy your job as much any more, that you’ve been putting everyone else’s needs ahead of your own (while working yourself to the bone), sending emails while on holiday and neglecting your personal relationships?

That was ME.  

At the time, I couldn’t see the damage I was doing, had little to no boundaries on how others used my time and found myself ‘trying to do it all’, all the time.

Sound familiar? Yeah, and it sucks, right?!

And if that resonates, you can probably also identify with the following:

  • What used to feel inspiring now feels tedious
  • You have a strong need to prove your worth
  • You work harder and do everything at 150% effort, even if it doesn’t require it
  • You ignore the signals from your body and push yourself ‘to do more’
  • You begin to neglect your own needs and your health takes a back seat
  • You seesaw between apathy & attentiveness
  • You become confused about priorities when trying to please everyone
  • You make everything about work and see hobbies as a ‘waste of time’
  • You bury your feelings and turn to alcohol to help you relax
  • You battle to sleep properly
  • You are low on energy and lacklustre about improving your lifestyle
  • You ‘armour up’ to deal with the toxicity around you until you begin to feel numb
  • You become horribly cynical about life, work and relationships

 

As a result, you’re overwhelmed when faced with simple tasks, or making silly mistakes on things that normally aren’t tricky at all.

Exhaustion (whether physical, emotional or cognitive fatigue), cynicism and inefficiency are warning signs of issues including burnout, disruption and stress.

The most profound relationship you will ever have is the one with yourself.

So tell me, discerning professional, do you understand why you’re experiencing these issues? Have you been ignoring the signs and finding yourself prone to ongoing ‘little’ illnesses? Are you sabotaging yourself somehow?

Have you even considered why your productivity fluctuates so much and yet you can’t seem to put your finger on the source of it?

Wouldn’t you like to have more energy and feel that wonderful sense of  being emerge so that you can laugh and feel contented again? Feel inspired, joyful and free?

It’s time to honour the powerful wisdom within you and create a new connection with yourself.

WORDS CREATE WORLDS

But it’s not just our words that create our worlds, it’s the FEELING behind them too. 

And sometimes our feelings can sabotage what we really want.

Since 2020, we’ve had to confront a multitude of choices regarding our careers, priorities, health and lives. 

Perhaps you’ve been thinking about a career change, revamping your work/ life plans or getting ready for that über exciting promotion?

Maybe you’re tired of feeling tired and just want your mojo back.

Whatever it is, you’re being called on to pivot your thinking, become waaaay more agile and still deliver the goods – in work and in life! 

And while you don’t want to give up on yourself, you don’t quite know how to move forwards effectively now, right?

That’s because it’s time to ‘call time’ on all the old ways of thinking. It’s time to throw your arms open to a different way of being by exploring new ways of engaging with yourself and the world.

The old paradigms no longer serve you or your life.

It’s time to break up with burnout, stop sabotaging yourself, and start serving yourself instead!

Your stories manifest themselves in who you are and how you show up in the world.

Simply put, you ARE your choices. 

We either make ourselves miserable, or we make ourselves strong. The amount of work is the same.

~ Carlos Castaneda

I believe we all have free will and the right to make our own choices. And sometimes we can benefit from walking the journey alongside someone who’s already made some choices and has realised what did and didn’t work well. 

With 20+ years of experience in corporate HR across a variety of industry sectors, I understand how necessary it is for business to engage solutions-focused, high-performing team members who are agile, diligent and competent.

I also appreciate what it’s like to perform at your peak, ‘give your all’ to your job, and secretly become quite lost while doing so.

I know because I was there. 

I also know it doesn’t have to be like this, and how you can ease your way out of that burnt out, depleted feeling to become so much better and actually live joyfully again.

I can help you bring your mojo back to life!

5/5
"I had been retrenched after feeling trapped in a highly toxic work environment, during which I had morphed from being a happy, confident person to feeling extremely stressed.  Through working with Lee I was able to remember the essence of who I am, to focus on what is important, regain clarity and start functioning effectively again."
MeredithSouth Africa
"I was transitioning to a new role at work and reached out to Lee for some help. She was very good at listening and at the end of each session we had come to clear discoveries about what I wanted to change, and I've now integrated the techniques we discussed into my work. It was very valuable, and I always felt like I was talking to someone who had my best interests at heart.”
KevinEngland
"Thanks so much for helping me see the value I have and that I have something to offer the world. It gave me the confidence to believe in myself and start painting again after 25 years. I've already sold ten paintings and have been invited by a gallery owner to exhibit my work!"
GabrielleSouth Africa
"Lee has unrivalled levels of patience, and can relate to anyone, regardless of their age or circumstance, with compassion, empathy and understanding. These qualities make her a truly outstanding coach.”
DuncanAustralia
"I think Lee has an incredible gift. This is the first time I feel I actually understand who I am; I've come out of my shell and into my own. I started seeing the light at the end of the tunnel and realising I was making more progress than I thought. I'm loving myself more than I did when I went into this process. It's been an incredible, enriching journey."
CebisaSouth Africa
"One of the best things about Lee is her energy. Her positive and energetic approach to a task is invigorating, and her zest spills over and affects those around her. It is very easy to see the effect she has on people . . . I found the appointments hard work yet hugely invigorating."
FionaSouth Korea
"Working with Lee was an eye opener! I had not worked with a life coach before, but talk about putting things in check! One big AHA moment for me was when I realised I cannot control what happens too far into the future, and that I have today to make a difference."
HelaniSouth Africa
"Before working with Lee I was confused, anxious and frustrated about my future life and career/business path. What I liked best was being able to go through my mind and getting to understand the root cause of certain non-beneficial habits; getting a different perspective of thinking of situations. Lee is very patient, a good listener, an expert at her craft but most importantly genuine as a human being. My time with her was worth every cent."
ObakengSouth Africa
"I was initially focused only on what I was able to bring to the table for a potential employer in terms of my skills level and experience, and what I liked about working with Lee was that she creates a comfortable environment where you’re left feeling positive about your thoughts and beliefs and paves a pathway for future thinking. I feel that I have gained the confidence in my abilities and what I bring forth to my employer. Lee you are truly a wonderful woman and I wish you nothing but success and blessings in all your endeavours."
Bronwyn South Africa
"I will always be grateful to you for your support and kindness. It would be impossible to count all the ways that you you've helped me. Thank you so much for all that you've done."
NeerjaIndia
"Working with Lee was amazing! I have grown exponentially since working with her and I have come to know my innate strength and power that I can rely on to progress forward and succeed. She demonstrated in-depth knowledge and experience in coaching. I highly recommend her services."
