August 2023: Sparks from Fireworks Coaching
Happy August Reader! Welcome to the first official newsletter of Fireworks Coaching. The format and/or content will likely change as we go but here is where you will find any updates about me, recent (hey! it's new!) blog posts (also usually published to LinkedIn) and something extra - a "lagniappe." It's been so great meeting more of you in person this summer at networking events, and then over Zoom with new clients. Looking forward to more of both. The hot-off-the-shelf news is I will be starting a new job by Aug 31! I will definitely continue coaching on the side - though with fewer available client spots. On the fence? need to make a decision about your stressful job or career path? Get in now! As you know, saving for retirement is no mean feat! I will keep building my business alongside the new gig until it can fully support me. My calendar is fully up to date here - including weekends. In other news, I was a guest on the Mac's List podcast, Find Your Dream Job, recently - what a blast! I hope to do many more. My episode on deciding to stay or leave distressing work is coming out October 18. Keep an ear tuned! Recent articlesI wish you all adventure, peace and joy in the waning days of summer. Also good A/C! Becky PS: Remember that anyone who sends me a new client who purchases a package gets a free 50 minute coaching session! |

I didn't plan to watch any but I tuned in the first night when Michelle Obama spoke, and the goosebumps haven't stopped since. The timing is impeccable. While the coaching work I do is ostensibly to help...
What is your theme song, Reader? You know, the one you listen to when you are FEELING yourself? The one that reminds you of your greatness (and also amazing lip-syncing skills)? The song with the lyrics that inspire you to live the life for who you are now - not the person you put on like a shiny shirt at 23 and which now hangs in tatters (and is waaayyy too small!) We should all have at least one of these songs close at all times. It is too easy to fall prey to limiting beliefs about...
Have you been counting down the days, Reader? Today is the first ever Stay or Go Table Talk on Zoom! (link below) This where you can join me for a free round table discussion with others going through similar career (and life) decision making around staying or leaving distressing work. And learning to make better decisions about what to do about it. If you have questions about #distressingwork, a career change you might be contemplating, difficult co-workers, a challenging boss, or how to...
