My relocation is now complete, and I am in my new home in Athens, GA, though not completely unpacked. Glad to be back online! I am ready to dive in full-time to this new adventure.
Besides all the moving-related stuff (buying a house, selling the old one, packing, unpacking, frequent trips to Goodwill, etc.), I have been meeting with my first round of clients. So far, I really enjoy the interactions I’ve been having, and it’s really neat to see people start to set goals for their lives and careers, and to see them make some progress.
Though I do miss State College and Penn State, I haven’t really missed my old job yet. I guess I really haven’t had the time, but if I have, then I’ve filled it with excitement about my new path as a life and career coach. I will be back to blogging about working in higher education, managing your career search, preparing for placement, and related issues, and developing this blog as an informational resource for higher education professionals seeking to take their career to the next level.
By January, I will have hopefully completed my certification requirements, and my goal is to have 10-15 paying clients by the end of March, and to be ready to offer workshops, in-person and online, to help higher education job seekers prepare for placement and succeed in their jobs.
Stay tuned as well for new editions of “Take 5″ and a series on getting ready for placement. If you have topics you would like to see me cover, please drop me a line at sean@higheredcareercoach.com.
