Find Your Purpose.
Define Your Future.
This transformative two part workshop will help you uncover your
professional “why” and create a career filled with meaning and direction.
Do you feel like you are destined for something more?
Perhaps you are standing at a career crossroads, thinking about a significant change, or preparing to return to the workforce after some time away. You are not alone. Many others feel the same way. Recent research shows that one in four Australians under the age of thirty is considering a career change, with salary, career growth, and flexibility among the main reasons for seeking something new. In New Zealand, the story is similar. While most people are happy at work, only about half of Gen Z workers feel truly satisfied in their roles. Many are reflecting on how their jobs align with their sense of purpose. Navigating this journey by yourself can be overwhelming.

The Ambitious Professional
Meet Sarah
Sarah has built a successful career but feels a growing sense of dissatisfaction. The work she once found exciting now feels routine. She finds herself wondering, “Is this all there is?” She knows she is capable of more but is unsure what her next move should be.
The Career Changer
Meet David
David has spent many years in a stable industry but feels a persistent pull toward a completely different field. The idea of starting over excites and scares him. He is searching for a practical framework to help him explore his options, confirm his new direction, and make a confident transition.
The Returner
Meet Emily
After taking a career break to focus on family, Emily is eager to return to work. She's looking for a role that makes use of her skills and offers the flexibility and sense of purpose she values. Flexible working is highly valued in New Zealand, where most employees are happy with their options.
