Following College, I joined Teach for America and worked as a high school math teacher in the Mississippi Delta for 3 years. I had a degree in business but as a teacher, I realized that I loved working with young people. I wanted to be in education but I wasn't passionate about teaching math any longer. Without considering my options, I went back to school to earn my Master's Degree in Education Leadership. After graduate school, I went back to the classroom hoping to eventually become a principal. While I had great results with my students throughout my teaching career, I couldn't ignore the fact that I wasn't joyful in my career and it was impacting my life.
This left me feeling uncertain, discouraged, and anxious about my career and life.
I was undeniably lost but I knew something better was out there for me. I decided to make an incredibly beneficial investment - I hired a Career Coach. With my coach's support and my own deep, personal reflection, I found the insight, clarity and direction that had previously escaped me. Until I started coaching, I had only followed career advice of people that I respected, but I never developed critical self-awareness skills and the confidence to find the answers within me. Coaching ultimately helped me find a path that led to career I love—working with teens / young adults and giving them tools, skills, and support to find an education and career path that aligned with their strengths, interests, and values.
Now, as a Certified Professional Coach with nearly a decade of coaching experience with teens/ young adults, I have supported hundreds of young professionals experiencing the same anxiety I once faced.
We can waste so much time in our life drifting. Coaching is a powerful approach that helps people gain personal insight and momentum to move forward with a sense of courage, confidence, and purpose. If you find yourself to be in a situation similar to what I was in, I highly recommend coaching. It is my sincere belief that coaching will empower you through the challenges you are experiencing in this moment.
