TRANSITION COACHING PROGRAM
FINDING PATHWAYS TO PURPOSE
It’s not actually the change itself we resist, it’s the transition we must go through in order to fully accept and process the change that’s the most difficult.
As William Bridges, preeminent authority on change and transition says, “It isn’t the changes that do you in, it’s the transitions. Change is situational, transition is the psychological process people go through to come to terms with the new situation.
Change is external, transition is internal.

It’s easy for retirees to fall into the trap of becoming narrowly focused on saving for retirement while ignoring the need to prepare to retire well. Career Reentry Coaching If you are out of the workforce for an extended period of time, you find the prospect of returning to work somewhat discouraging at best. But going out of the traditional career path to raise a family, care for a sick parent or spouse, or whatever is common. You would also be walked thru the career coaching program.
