If you’ve been following my blog, you know I just spent a really transformative month at the amazing Esalen Institute in Big Sur, California, about half-way between Los Angeles and San Francisco, on the rocky, majestic cliffs of the Pacific Ocean. Esalen has been a hotbed of personal growth for nearly 50 years. A super special shake-up-your-life-in-great-ways kind of place. The land is gorgeous. The people care about their personal development and tend to be super open, warm, and compassionate. And there’s just a certain magic to the whole place.

So, what if you could move out of your boredom and frustration about work, and join me, Dr. Susan Bernstein, and discover the answer to “what’s next?” in your life and livelihood?

Well, you can.

Imagine: You wake up, and see and hear the Pacific Ocean. If you’re feeling up for it, you wander into a kick-ass yoga class, followed by a delicious organic breakfast. Then, you jump in for a career transformation workshop with a bunch of other cool people to explore your career future, in a really fun, unexpected way? Oh, and then you can take your breaks relaxing in a hot tub overlooking the Pacific Ocean. How amazing would that be?

On the weekend of September 30 to October 2, I hope you’ll join me at Esalen for a workshop called “Crafting Careers That Truly Fit: How to Work From Within.” The workshop is really different than almost any career approach you’ve encountered. Yes, it’s a teeny tine bit woo-woo, but you won’t be shaking rattles or talking to your chakras, I promise (unless you want to — but I won’t be facilitating exercises like that). If you’ve taken a whole bunch of career tests, or even if you’ve done all the exercises in What Color Is Your Parachute, and you still feel stuck, here’s why:  Those approaches try to get you to figure out your future. Hah! That’s like choosing a spouse based on a resume. Hopefully, you wouldn’t do that.

Instead of figuring it out, why not feel it out? The Crafting Careers That Truly Fit workshop gets you to plan your future in a novel way.

The Crafting Careers That Truly Fits workshop gets you out of the monkey mind syndrome. Instead of planning with your mind, you’ll be guided through activities that have you listening to your heart and gut. That’s where you’ll hear your passions, not in your cerebellum, you know? But don’t worry. You won’t lose your mind in the workshop. Nope. I’ll help you to put your mind in the service of your heart and gut, so you can take your next career steps in a way that feels good to you, not just a way that pleases everyone else.

The pleasure of crafting work that truly fits you is undeniable. You deserve this pleasure. And I’ll show you how to find this amazing passion within you and bring it out in this fun, experiential workshop.

Well, I’d love you to be a part of this workshop. Come on! Accept my invitation.

I’d LOVE to welcome you to the workshop and help you get clear about your future career. And it would be great to sit in the hot tubs and chat with you during the breaks. What better, more relaxing, inspiring way to gain clarity about your life and your livelihood? If you have questions about the workshop, please feel free to contact me.

Let’s hang out in the hot tubs and relax!

I’m looking forward to helping you get clear about your career!
