59: Be Open to New Discoveries with Alisa Barcan
Alisa Barcan is a Financial Coach and Consultant based in the UK who helps people rewrite their financial stories. She works with professionals and small business owners who wish to decipher their finances and improve their financial situation and relationship with money. Alisa is a regular contributor to Harvard Business Review Ascend, a prize winner Chartered Certified Accountant and a qualified Coach from The University of Cambridge, UK.
Alisa grew up in Romania and never dreamed she would live anywhere but her homeland. When her partner was offered a Ph.D. scholarship in the UK, everything changed. She moved with him and never looked back. Initially, her career in political science and international relations was challenged as she has no permit to work in the UK. While she waited to get the proper permit, she took classes and had the opportunity to take some career assessments. The results of these tests pointed her in a totally different direction towards finance and accounting. The rest, as they say, is history! She became an accountant and analyst for 6 years and then started her own business as a financial coach.
In this episode we discuss:
- Alisa is from Romania and had no plans to relocate until her partner was offered a Ph.D. scholarship in the UK, and at that point, they chose to move.
- Her career trajectory shifted drastically after she took classes that offered career assessments. She discovered strengths in finance and accounting and decided to apply for just one accounting job. She got the job and has been doing financial work since.
- How Alisa decided to leave the corporate world and start her own business as a financial coach.
- Alisa is a regular contributor to Harvard Business Review Ascend, is a prize winner Chartered Certified Accountant, and is a qualified Coach from The University of Cambridge, UK.
