About Jan
Today I love my life! I have a wonderful husband, a beautiful
home and a career that is totally in line with my inner being.
Yet it wasn’t always this way. I know what it’s like
to be stuck in a career that feels wrong. After more than 20 years
in banking and financial services, I was a nervous wreck. Going
to work felt like being trapped in a torture chamber. Still, I
was terrified of leaving. I kept telling myself that I needed
the job to pay the bills, that maybe it would get better. It didn’t.
I thought I could adapt but as time went on it just got worse.
What was happening was that the linear work was fighting it out
with my creative talents. I was trying to fit myself into a mould
that was simply wrong for my personality. It was crushing my spirit.
Once I summoned up the energy to make changes, I took a long hard
look at what was really fulfilling and purposeful for me. The
insights I received led me to quit my corporate career and go
on the search for something that would reflect my creativity,
authenticity, integrity, curiosity and love of learning. The upshot
of it all was that I returned to school to complete an M.A. in
Psychology with an emphasis in Career Counseling. Then I trained
as a coach at The Coaches’ Training Institute (C.T.I.) one
of the oldest and most respected coach training schools in the
nation. I also became a member of the International Coaching Federation
(ICF).
It was a natural next step to start my own business as a Career
and Life Coach where I use my experience to help clients deal
with similar issues and watch them blossom into a deeper understanding
of their lives and purpose.
