- They searched by themselves for 6 months - 2 years. Then come to her for help
- Coming back from a career break or look for a big change. Industry, position etc
- High performers that want to grow, want to move forward without doing unnecessary mistakes. So they ask an expert
- One of her favourite questions
-
- “If you didn’t need the money. What part of your job would you do for free?”
- A common mistake is to focus too much on the current position, industry and search from that place

We are born being creative but our own or the societies judgement hinder us.
Our school system is based on obeying and knowing how to do things. That leaves not much room for experimenting.
