One tool I think is absolutely brilliant at this time of year is the Wheel of Life.  It can help you work out how to go from mediocre to memorable (in a good way) in terms of your year ahead.

You can click here to get the version I use with clients from the Co-Active Training Institute with instructions from me. Basically, it’s a template like this....  Your life is divided into 8 different segments for different parts of your life for you to consider.

First, you take a look at each segment and rate it on a scale of 1-10

Now, for a wheel to run smoothly, ideally, there need to be no big, jagged bits. Have a listen to the podcast for the next steps and how to smooth out that wheel.

Last year, I think I told you how much I turn into a Bah Humbug Scrooge at Christmas, what with the extra expense, consumerism, buying, wrapping, clearing up, cooking, buying, cleaning etc. I won’t go on.

Of course, there is so much I love about the holidays, namely, being with the family and having quality time. But no-one can tell me it’s a relaxing time of year - unless maybe you are one of those people who flies away to the Caribbean!

Anyway, if you are like me and find the holiday season somewhat daunting and draining then here are some tips I have found that have worked.

I don't know about you but when I think about 2023 I’d say it’s been like being in a tumble drier. It makes me think of the three witches in Macbeth saying;

You know how they say there are some people who walk into a room and the atmosphere changes? In a good way?

Most people are scared of change, frightened by the unknown and the feeling of not being in control of what’s going to happen. But I think there’s a way to find it positively scary.

So change often is scary but standing still, in the long run, can be even scarier in terms of what you don’t end up doing, what you miss out on and experience.

So it’s worth it to feel the fear and do it anyway.

“If at first you don’t succeed…try, try again!” goes the saying.

But I think that misses a crucial bit between the ‘not succeeding’ and the ‘trying again’. If we just hurl ourselves back into the trying again one, it can feel relentless and exhausting, AND we might miss out on some crucial learnings.

When you are grown up, you don’t have schools noticing your work and rewarding you so much and we don’t have academic years where we take stock.

So you have to do it yourself!

You know that saying, ‘What am I - chopped liver?’ Well, that’s what I remember thinking when I was made redundant a few years ago. ‘How come you don’t want me?!’

And from what I can tell that’s normally the way it goes when people are made redundant. There seem to be a few negative connotations - you're not wanted but others are; you weren’t good enough to keep and so on.

Listen to this week’s episode to find out how you can reframe redundancy and help you through what may be a difficult time

Often in coaching, you are working with a client who is in transition - from stepping up into a more senior role or company or making a career change. They are one place and they want to move to another, find something new, or change how they are now into how they truly want to be.

Sometimes, they have a very clear vision of where they want to be and how they want to live. Sometimes, they don’t and helping them find both clarity of vision and direction is key.

Transition from one state of being can be hard. It can involve getting out of your comfort zone, stepping into the unknown, the unfamiliar, the untested.

Listen to this week’s episode to find out what how the expression "A Smooth Sea Never Made A Skilled Sailor" can help you in your state of transition
