Hi everyone, welcome to Redesign Your Career Path: From Frustration to Fulfillment. Today you're going to learn a little bit about how I have redesigned my own career path to give you that hope you have been always looking for, that you too can redesign your career if you are not happy with it. So first of all, before we start, I would like each one of you to grab this free course It's called 10 Questions to Check Your Career Alignment. With these 10 questions, you'll have the clarity you need to know exactly whether or not you're on the right career path. So take a minute and download this from the link below. And because you come to this presentation, I want to offer 3 of the questions for you from there. And this question is for you right now to take a minute to ponder. It will start to give you a clue on if you are on the right career path, and to confirm that, I recommend you download the entire 10 questions. All right, so are you unsatisfied with your current career? Are you feeling lost and stuck and need the direction to know what to do? Well, if you are, you are not alone because 85% of people are feeling the same way. The statistics show that only 15% of people are actually engaged, so 85% are unhappy. All right, let me share my story. I got hired at my dream job after I graduated, about 4 years from my graduation, and I thought I was set because I was assigned to a team where the leader emphasized that we're like a family, and I believed it. And I worked for the job that I was hired. I worked on 5-star hotels, high-end residences, and different shopping malls. It was glamorous. And here is me at a Christmas party, dressed all glamorous. You think that this is an amazing place to work where I could climb the corporate ladder and eventually retire. happily along my teammates. Yeah, right, that didn't really happen that way. These happy faces lasted a few months and turned into frowning, because even though I dress all glamorous at the party, this is not how I normally feel at the workplace. I would end up being overworked and undervalued, but it was comfortable and tolerable. Therefore, I was just bearing with it, and I'm like, you know what, I'm just gonna deal with it and settle. Eventually, it turns so much more than what I can tolerate, and it's all of this stuff. I feel burned out. I feel like I don't even like my boss because he didn't treat me like how I wanted to be treated. He treated me like I'm just a number. I'm just a work— force. And I was also doing things, especially when I designed shopping malls, to kind of design a place to make people stay there as long as they can. I feel like, why would I design something to trap people in a shopping mall where I don't even like shopping myself? So I'm sure some of these values that I highlighted here are some of the things that you are currently feeling. And if it is, then You are in the right place right now, and let me continue to tell you my story. So I was being that overworked and underpaid interior designer working 80 hours a week for about, I think, since 2011 to 2020. So that's about 9 years, and I thought this creative career is all I wanted. And I thought it would bring me the lifestyle that I wanted, but I was wrong until— guess what? Yeah, COVID happened. Oh my goodness, that changed so many people's lives, and it changed mine too. I got laid off. And you know what? As much as I really didn't like my job, it got the bill paid, and it gave me that kind of comfort and stability and security. So once I was laid off, I was lost. And guess what? At that time, I also just lost my relationship as well with a guy that I was dating for nearly 7 years. So I was, I was lost because I lost my job and I lost my relationship. I don't know who I am anymore. Nobody needs my attention for anything. So what I end up doing at the beginning was binge-watching TV. I binge-watched series for like 3 weeks straight just to numb this feeling of lack of self-worth, the feeling of I'm so incompetent and all the negativities, you know, just to shut it off. I numb myself by watching TV. And then I realized I can't live this way. So I went through a self-discovery process. And I need to ask myself if I just don't have to get up in the morning for anything, what would be that reason for me to want to get up? And I realized if somebody needs my help, that would be the reason for me to get up. And that's not enough. Just knowing the why is not enough. I have to really take a deep down looking at my talents, skills, passion, and value, and really understand myself, kind of reintroduce myself to myself. Like, what am I good at? What are my skill sets? What do I care about most? What lights me up? All these questions, I have to find the answers for them. And guess what? I did. So I got my career path redesigned. I'm now a designer and a life coach. I create spaces, and I continued my interior design passion, but not in the corporate America way like what I had before. But I was able to work now with my best friend and a team of talented designers and work remotely for them. And now I create spaces and fulfilling career path for people. I have found that beautiful balance that let me express all my talents, and I help people— I'm doing it, and I help people along the way. My passion is to help multi-talented individuals design their fulfilling career with coaching as my modality that reflects their most authentic selves, especially when they feel stuck or undervalued in their current roles. A lot of my clients currently, they actually have multi-talented— they are multi-talented and they have different interests, and they think they are stuck at one job and this is all they can do. That's not true. There's more you can do with the other talents that you haven't really connected yourself to. So we'll go through the process and discover your unique skills, passion, and value through this self-discovery process. After feeling burned out myself for nearly a decade, I at the time felt hopeless, but now I found my calling, and I was able to keep design as that creative outlet, and I love my life now. I'm living a life full of joy, abundance, and freedom, exactly what I value most. And I believe nobody is meant to be miserable. We're here to be our best selves, doing what we love, and I'm determined to help other people to find their talents, ignite their passions, and build purposeful career that provide the most fulfillment. We all deserve that. So again, did you have answers for those 3 questions at the beginning? And what was your answer? This should give you a clue whether or not you are on the right career path. Like I said, I encourage you to get the full course so you have all the questions that you need to ask to know 100% sure, am I on the right career path? And if not, why not to get on the right career path, right? Well, you are here today because you want to see what that hope is. You want to see how can you get on that career path, right? Maybe some of you already know the answer is, you know what, I know I'm not on the right career path, but I don't know what to do. But guess what? I have a solution for you. You ready? Are you ready to discover that hidden talent? Are you ready to serve a purpose while having fun? And most importantly, are you ready to be on a path where you can reach your full potential?

It's a roadmap for you to transform your current job situation and find that dream career that aligns with who you are without the confusion and overwhelm. And as somebody like myself who transformed my own job situation with the step-by-step process from this program, I can confidently endorse its effectiveness. You know, I wish I had known about this process sooner to save myself from many sleepless nights. I'm telling you, when I was binge-watching the TV during the day, I didn't really sleep well at night because when you're not satisfied with your life, it's always in the back of your head that you have to do something about it, right? So another thing that I want to assure you is that this is a certified coaching process that is designed with Life Purpose Institute, where I received my coaching certificate from. It's called Life Purpose Institute. And it was rated as one of the top coaching certificate programs nationally by International Coaching Foundation, so you can really trust the process.

But this program is not for everyone. It is for you if you currently are overworked, underpaid, and feel that you need to be more appreciated if you have more to offer and your current job is limiting your potential to achieve more.

But if you are open-minded, this will help you.
