One of my clients was excited about exploring a new career direction. 

He’d done the thinking. He had his questions ready. He knew who he wanted to talk to.

But when it came time to actually send that first email to someone outside his network, someone he didn’t know, he froze.

He stared at a blank screen for hours. 

Then drafted something he didn’t like. He was overthinking it. Trying to find the perfect words. Worrying about bothering people. 

The irony is: He’d negotiated complex policy, managed difficult stakeholder relationships, handled several crises in his public sector role.

But asking for a 20-minute conversation to help with his carer change? That felt impossible.

Does this sound familiar? 

In this episode, I’m going to close that gap for you. With a simple email template you can copy, paste, and send today.
