Yes. I started just doing recruiting 23 years ago and people would come to see me and I would have these amazing mid-career professionals come to see me to talk about potential job opportunities. I was selling them job opportunities. And very accomplished professionals, they would come, we'd sit down either in my office or over a cup of coffee or lunch.

And I would say, what do you want to do with the rest of your career? And they would just look at me and say, what do you have for me? They didn't have a vision or an idea or a mission for what they wanted to do.

They were still 20 years into their careers, just opportunity seekers looking for the highest salary or the best company to work for, but not having a kind of internalized thoughts and vision for what they want to do other than ambition.

And so it wasn't until 10 years into my recruiting experience that I wrote what became Seven Steps to Career Clarity, which is a seven steps process for figuring those things out. And I realized that many of the people never did the work on their careers because they're so busy working in their careers.

And so I wanted to share that knowledge, what I've learned from talking to so many people about their careers, but also the things that I've been through and the kind of thinking around finding your way and finding your path and finding work that you love. And they're amazing people. They're not flawed people. They've just followed the model of great school, great company, continual advancement.

And some people will, I studied accounting, so I have to be a CPA. Or I studied law, so I have to be a lawyer. And so having someone that can work with them and say, I get that, but what would you really like to do? And help them think a little bit differently and help them understand. make change. So the people I work with, they're thinking about changing jobs.

They're thinking about changing careers, like a complete redo of their career. And some of the people I coach, they're ambitious and they just want to move up in their company. And that's okay too. There's nothing wrong with that. But just helping people think a little bit deeper about their lives than I just have to follow this path.

Yeah, so we talked up until now, we've talked a lot about our story, things that happened to us in the past that provide us with some clarity about what we can do in the future. And so the seven-step process starts with your story, looking at the past to find clues for your future. But it also talks to some really basic stuff.

So you start with looking at your past and then you do the mission, vision, values, which I call values, mission, vision, because values is where you start. You think about what your dream job is.
