BOOK DESCRIPTION
What would you give to know that your child is living their best life, a life that builds their self-worth, rather than just net worth? A life that is based on living out their values rather than just acquiring valuables? A life where their energy is focused on being self-less rather than taking selfies? This book gives you practical steps to lead your child to careers that engage, inspire, and reward them by connecting them to their hidden talents, passions, and purpose.
As parents, we all have the same goal for our children: We want them to thrive and lead lives where they can experience happiness and success. Knowing that much of their lives will be spent at work, how can we help them choose jobs where they can find happiness and fulfillment?
The evidence is clear that many young adults are overwhelmed by the process of selecting a career, and many end up in jobs that are not a good fit. By coaching your child to take a wholistic approach to the career process where they engage their head, heart, and soul, you can lead the way to careers where they can find meaning and purpose by contributing their talents and passions to solve problems and issues that they care about deeply.
This book helps guide parents and young adults on the steps they can take to find jobs where they can thrive by asking the right questions to identify career strengths, passions, values, and purpose. It gives parents practical ideas to help develop their children’s potential by providing the right opportunities, activities, and experiences and introducing them to the right people to motivate and inspire them.
LEARN HOW TO…
