Jonny is a young entrepreneur who started our session by saying he wanted to look at money blocks because he felt he wasn’t reaching his potential. Some digging revealed that his issue was that he didn’t know what he wanted to focus on in his career for fear that he’d give something his all and that thing would be a disappointment. He was looking for certainty in an uncertain world. This episode is for you if you or someone you know is lost in the wilderness of early adulthood, still trying to figure out your purpose in life.

Listen out for themes of risk-taking, passion and career frustrations in your twenties and thirties.

If you can relate to Jonny’s struggles here’s what I’d suggest:

1. Take the pressure off yourself! In my experience, we don’t find our passions in life but they find us.

2. Nothing is wasted. Everything I did career-wise before I became a coach feeds into the work I do today. So, go and explore what’s out there career-wise and build up your skills.

3. Accept that life is uncertain. Seeking certainty is a recipe for a boring life in which you feel frustrated.

4. Write down everything that excites you and do more of those things. The higher and more positive your energy is, the more positivity you have to give to the world.

5. Trust in the process. Life is not a race or a competition but a process of growth so give yourself a chance to grow.
