The Skills Audit

I can’t even with this recent note from a client. 🥰

I desperately want you to have this feeling also, particularly if you’re burned out, or mired in self-doubt and confusion about what you have to offer and where you should be heading next. Summer is almost over and I want you to start September strong.

I’m waaaaay overdue reposting this little chestnut…

I LOVE this awesome infographic about Imposter Syndrome (I will never stop posting this, btw) because it shows, in an uncomplicated and non-judgemental way, that feelings like Imposter Syndrome are not some mysterious ailment or nefarious life sentence, but moreso a temporary moment of uncertainty that can be diffused with context and self-advocacy. Information and perspective are valuable weapons in the battle against self-limiting beliefs like Imposter Syndrome, and standing up for yourself by recognizing and acknowledging the breadth and scope of your skills is the fastest way to end the war. If you need more help with this, let me know. In the meantime, show yourself some grace. You’re doing great ♥️

Stressing about your work while you’re supposed to be relaxing is definitely not the summer vibe I want for you. You deserve to have a job that challenges you and pushes you, but that doesn’t reduce you to a pile of anxious rubble. If that’s happening, send me a note immediately and we’ll get you sorted.

Something to consider.

When you write down a list of all the things you know how to do it tells me a story about the activities and behaviours toward which you naturally gravitate and also how you process information out in the world. This will not only get you back in touch with the stuff you're actually into (which is a win all on its own, if you ask me), but it also allows me to identify patterns of behaviour that are part of your nature - a concept I argue that should be of central consideration when deciding how and where you want to work. With the right context, lining up your nature with your interests, goals and tolerances will allow you to challenge toxic narratives that have more than likely been holding you back. For lots of people, including my recent client, it's a major wake-up call about where they've been and where they want to go.

I love getting emails like this. This work is so important to me and it fills me with such happiness when it resonates with others. Sending the very best vibes to my client. I hope your first day at your new job was awesome. 🙌

One of the best parts of my job is when I receive my clients' skill lists. I love that, even though they're struggling, they can still use words like "joy", and that the assignment instructions allow them to come to their skills from a place of appreciative inquiry. They're encouraged to focus on what they have going for them, instead of heading straight into everything they think is "wrong." It changes the mindset from the jump, and creates space to consider potentialities other than that they're somehow broken or deficient or hopeless (P.S.: nope, nope and nopey nope.) Learning these kinds of important details also allows me to help them do the crucial work of lining up their natures with their interests and goals, and challenging toxic narratives that have been holding them back. It's the work of my life and I will never, ever quit.

If any of this resonates with you, send me a note or book a free 15-minute Connect session on my website. 15 minutes could change your whole life.

Hey, here's a thing you might need to hear this afternoon. You don't need to keep doing what you've already done. Especially if it's not in line with who you are and how you work. Or because the world says that's what's "supposed" to happen. If you're struggling with this, or having trouble figuring out what to do instead, visit my website at www.theskillsaudit.ca and book a free 15-minute Connect session. Let's have a chat about where you've been and where you want to go. 15 minutes could change your whole life.

Invest in yourself and you'll win every time.

I've helped hundreds of others, and I can help you, too. Visit my website at www.theskillsaudit.ca, book a free 15-minute Connect Session, and let's get going. 15 minutes could change your whole life.
