Career Catalysers: The Women-Space YouTube Top 3

Are you thinking new year, new you – you want to nail down your career plans or just up your game?  Perhaps you want to take a bit of time out for some reflection on what is really important to you.

I have put together these three brilliant YouTube videos to help kick start that process.  They work collectively and I recommend you take them in the order as set out here.

When you have watched them take out your journal and reflect on these questions:

·      What is the career/life that you so desire that just thinking about it takes your breath away?  

·      What is the gap between your now and this future? 

·      What is the one step you can take now that will take you closer to that dream?

·      Now commit to that one step.   

Have fun!

Tara Mohr: How to find your calling

I’m a great fan of Tara’s work. My copy of her book ‘Playing Big’ is much thumbed. This is a short video of seven areas where your heart is trying to tell you something is amiss in your professional life. Watch this first. It’s a warm up for the others.

Caroline McHugh: The art of being yourself

When we look in a mirror, our features are reversed. We never see ourselves as we really are. Using the metaphor of The True Mirror – that is a mirror that does not reverse your features - Caroline asks two questions “Who do you think you are?” and “What does life expect from you?”.  If you want a deeper sense of the meaning of authenticity, watch this video. It will help you think about how you try to fit in to the already-given rather than being the phenomenal you you already are. 

Vanessa Kisuule: Take up Space

Vanessa is a spoken word poet of incredible repute. This work of hers is one of the anthems of my life and an anthem for Women-Space. She’s sassy, beautiful and full of the art of being herself in all the senses that Caroline McHugh identifies. Her words will inspire you to take that one step towards being the phenomenal you you already are.

With the warmest of wishes,

Christina
