What Others Have to Say

Editorial Reviews

"How can something so deceptively simple, be so life changing? This is by far the most useful book I've read on career planning. It feels like Kirsten is there with you offering support and encouragement all the way. A must have for jobseekers and career coaches!" Francine Paton. Organizational Development Consultant

"Full disclosure: I've worked with Kirsten for over 20 years and I know what a great coach she is, so I was primed to expect a high-quality book. This book exceeded my high expectations. Kirsten's sharing of her own experiences and the stories of others takes what could be a dry subject and brings it to life. Rarely have I read a book that is in one package so practical, so engaging and so potentially life changing." Howard Boorman. Writer, Facilitator, Coach and inveterate traveller

"I cannot recommend highly enough how Kirsten's career coaching strategies guided me from a place of uncertainty and confusion to my wonderful new career of nearly 3 years. This is no simple cookie cutter approach. Kirsten opened up possibilities and I found a new career I did not think would be open to me. The process of career coaching that I went through with Kirsten was instrumental in helping me make my own decisions to find the job I am in now.

At every step of the journey there were various tools and flexible strategies I could mould, use and revisit to keep me on the right path. Kirsten offered a personalized yet professional approach." Vicky G. Accountant

"Working with Kirsten has helped me build confidence in myself. I now understand what I do and don't want in a job, and I have the tools to help me pursue the career of my dreams." Ann-marie B. Award-winning Author

"Having someone who believes in you and encourages you is the best that you can get! With Kirsten's encouragement and guidance I've ended up achieving goals that I honestly thought were out of reach.

Kirsten is inspirational and because of her I didn't give up. I set goals and worked towards them to achieve personal greatness, and all due to her encouragement and guidance.

Kirsten made me brave. Thinking out of the box led to achieving goals that I never thought were within reach. Kirsten opened my mind to possibilities that I'd never considered and showed me that the only thing limiting me, was myself.

Kirsten took a dream and made it happen. She made me believe in me, and pursue and achieve the unachievable." Michelle Arnold. Executive Project Manager for Government
