Are you at a career crossroads?

Do you feel tired and dragged down by doing work that doesn’t fit you?

Do you feel like a square peg in a round hole when it comes to your job?

Are you hungry for work that uplifts and inspires you?

Do you daydream about having great work, but get stuck when you try to figure out how to make it happen?

Like many people I coach, you may be tired of working in a dead-end job where you’re just “going through the motions.” You collect your paycheck, but you wonder what life would be like if you had work that really made you feel alive and juicy. But then, you think, “What in the world would I do for work?” Or you get anxious when you wonder, “Can I really do work that fits me? Is that realistic?” And you feel overwhelmed when you try to figure out “How do I get there?”

If this sounds like you, I’ve got the remedy!

On Wednesday, July 7, I invite you to a 90-minute webinar that will give you the information and next steps you need to bust out of ill-fitting work and empower you to create work that fits you so much better. In the webinar, you’ll discover seven shifts that, when you make them, you’ll be on the path to working in a way that truly expresses your aliveness and authenticity. You’ll discover proven approaches to crafting a life and a livelihood that really works for you. And, you’ll find out what you need to change in your life in order to make that work a reality. What you learn may surprise you!

I created this webinar because I want to help you stop believing so much bad information that’s out there about making work a joy.

Have you bought into this nonsense? Check out just a few pieces of life-sapping (and just plain BAD) advice:

• Making a career change has to be hard. (No, most of us have bought into a bad cultural myth that keeps us working hard, instead of working well. And your overall wellness is fundamental to you enjoying your role!)
• You can’t make any money doing what you love. (Definitely incorrect. And don’t buy into the myth that you’ll absolutely have to take a pay cut to do better work. It’s not always true.)
• You shouldn’t leave one job without another job in hand. (Wrong! In fact, this guidance can leave you so stressed out that you’ll be in panic mode when you finally leave — and you’ll probably have a tougher time finding work if you reach the stage of burn out)
• I bet you can think of many other guidelines (spoken almost as absolute truths) that you’ve been given for your career.

These so-called “rules” are standing in your way of enhancing your career. It’s not that you don’t have the talent or the ability to transform your work from negative to positive. You DO have that power to positively impact your work. And you can use it right now. But if you don’t know these seven shifts, and you don’t make them, you’ll find it an uphill battle to feel happy and satisfied about work.

But if you learn about these seven shifts, and you start making them in your life, you’ll not only enhance your career. You’ll have more energy for doing what really matters to you.

Isn’t it time to create work that truly fits you?

This webinar will give you a framework for transforming your work (and your life) on a daily basis, and with each shift you make, you’ll be able to be more engaged, more energized, and more enriched (financially and emotionally) by the work you do in the world.

In this webinar, you will:

• Replace outdated myths and misguided advice about “work” with visions of what you truly desire and ways to make your visions into realities (You can stop believing expressions like “You can’t make money doing what you love” and replace those with beliefs that DO support you)
• Discover new ways of looking at work and career that will motivate and uplift you, instead of bringing you down.
• Learn what activities and perspectives will support you in creating a life and a livelihood that works for you (so you don’t have to guess. You’ll feel more positive about your ability to create a career future that works for you)
• Hear inspiring stories of people who are very much like you, who made these shifts and went from stressful, poorly fitting work to work that is congruent with who they are and what they care about. (And you’ll hear what it takes for you to do that, too. And it’s really very do-able!)
• Feel calmer about career transition. You can stop tossing and turning at night, wondering how to improve your work.
• Reduce your stress about your career future. You deserve to be upbeat and positive about what’s ahead of you, and this webinar will show you what shifts you need to make so that happens.

“Susan helped me when I’d hit a real crossroad in my professional life. Her creative approach helped me really get in touch with what I really want to be doing and map out a strategy to go for it. It’s been the best year of my life in so many ways and I credit Susan with helping me find it. I wasn’t sure I was going to like working with a life coach, especially since I find it had to talk about feelings, etc, but Susan’s approach brought me along and I actually ended up enjoying the process, and making a new friend. I highly recommend Susan.”- Carole Florman

Who’s presenting this webinar?


Hi! I’m Dr. Susan Bernstein. People tell me I’m a voice of calm in times of transition. I’d love to be that for you. Since 2001, I’ve assisted over 2,000 people to shift into work that works for them.

I help high-achievers (like yourself) to attain clarity and confidence about their career futures.

I’d love to inspire you to do the work that matters most to you. And this webinar will show you the seven shifts you need to make so that you, too, can feel excited to go to work in the morning.

So, if you’re thinking about attending, you might want to know a little bit about the person who’s developed this webinar and will be teaching it!

Before launching Work from Within, I spent two decades in management consulting, marketing, and executive development roles with large corporations, including Accenture and Intel. I figured I was doing the “right” thing, especially after earning my MBA at UC Berkeley’s Haas School of Business. I was always getting good reviews from clients and managers for my strategy consulting work. But I never really loved it. I didn’t have a coach (or really anyone) to help me make the transitions. And some of the changes I made were really hard. I agonized over the thought of giving up a great salary in management consulting. I wondered if I’d ever work with such smart people again. (Both of those turned out to be silly worries).

I want to save you the time and frustration that I went through. Your career transition can be much easier by learning from my experience. Additionally, my PhD research investigated what it really takes to make a major career change. I’ll be sharing that research with you in the workshop, so you can learn what to do…and what not to do. You’ll be more likely to take the steps and actions that will make you successful.

I’ve worked with over two thousand clients since 2001 (You can view my LinkedIn profile to see what they’ve said about working with me). I promise to bring you the best of what I’ve learned working with people who’ve made all kinds of changes — like an attorney who became an HR consultant, a non-profit manager who now helps promote products used by astronauts, and a PR executive who created a portfolio of work, including community theatre, voice-over work, and event planning (and she’s making more money, working fewer hours a week, and loving her life).

“Susan’s approach to creating work that truly fits for you is awesome — she supported me look at my career and my life inside-out. After three successful startups (two of which I founded), I had no desire to start anything for a while. However, the corporate world did not look appealing at all. Susan helped me understand what my heart was saying. She helped decode the DNA code that makes me tick. I moved from being a startup entrepreneur to a hi-tech evangelist during the day, and an evangelist for non-profits in education, health and happiness during evenings & weekends. What more could I ask for?” – Shankar Hemmady

What’s included in this webinar?

You can think of the webinar as a live presentation or workshop that you happen to be able to view from the comfort of your own home. So you don’t have to travel. You’ll be able to see video of me, Dr. Susan Bernstein, and you’ll have a chat window and audio controls to let you ask questions.


• Learning! You’ll be joining a 90-minute webinar session chock full of great perspectives, processes, and practices to help you craft work that fits you, uniquely. (By the way, you can view the presentation on your PC or Mac, or even on some smart phones, like the iPhone – get details here: http://www.webex.com/mobile),
• A resource-packed workbook! You want to be able to apply details from your own life to what you learn in this webinar. That’s why I created a workbook for you. The questions, exercises, and perspectives will help you to discover what you need to do in each of the seven shifts. (FYI, I’ll make the workbook available to everyone registered for the webinar the morning of July 7. It’s the kind of workbook you’ll want to use to follow along with what I’m sharing; it might confuse you if you received it early, and I don’t want to add any confusion for you. )
• A chance to ask your questions! The format of the webinar allows two-way communication, and I’ll be making time for your questions during the presentation. I want you to feel clear and confident, and so we’ll make time for you to ask questions.
• Small size! This webinar is limited to just 24 participants. That way, you have time to ask your questions, and I have the ability to share meaningful guidance. It’s not one of those mega calls. Those are great for one-way communication, but not for gathering your input and questions.
• Encouragement! Making changes in our lives takes a lot of energy. Why try to generate all that energy on your own? You’ll get encouragement from me, Dr. Susan Bernstein, a recognized expert in life and career transitions. My clients tell me I have contagious enthusiasm, along with actionable, research-based advice. I will help you get clear and get moving in your career and your life.
• A downloadable recording of the webinar! You’ll be able to refer to back to the webinar in the future, whenever you need the advice, guidance, and inspiration.

Why should I join this webinar?

If you’ve been considering making changes in your career, but something seems to be blocking you, or you’re wondering, “what can I do to get clear about what’s next for me?” or “what can I be doing to make a career change more likely?” you’ll move from feeling stuck, lost, or confused about your future direction to feeling calmer, clearer, and more confident about your ability to move into work that truly fits you. You, personally. The webinar will change how you view work, and will open you up to new, positive possibilities.
