Personal & Professional Advocacy
Professional Identity & Advocacy
Hello everyone. Today I want to talk about a common issue that affects people in employment. Even if we are good at our job, we can sometimes feel a bit lost at work. It can seem like other people see you in a different light, or that their expectations of you might be a little bit skewed. If that is the case, then we need to talk about professional identity and advocacy.
Personal Boundaries
Personal Boundaries
Hi everyone. Today I want to discuss one of the foundational principles of wellness coaching, the setting of personal boundaries.
If you are someone who has caring responsibilities, perhaps for an elderly relative, or indeed for children, then it is likely that this will resonate with you. Sometimes we want to feel like we are available for everyone at all times, and this can be especially trying if you are not in employment. You can perhaps feel that you need to be doing chores and errands for others all the time. It is very easy, in these circumstances, to become overstretched. It becomes all too easy to forget about your own needs, perhaps neglecting your need to rest. You are working hard, even if not directly via employment: you are keeping your home and family together.
