Start your journey with a conversation
Let's Talk 60 minutes or
Go Deep with a Clarity Session
Seeking clarity
A good way to clarify your thoughts about shifting to self-employment or future work and where your ideas might take you. The process starts with a questionnaire for me to start to get to know you, some follow up questions prior to a 90 minute conversation with me, then more follow up by email and then a final 40 minute conversation.
We'll explore what you have in mind, what questions you have and we can talk about some of the issues that you may want to consider.
It touches on your thoughts for your future, issues you may wish to ask about and draw your attention to the transitions or what is further involved in making a shift to self-employment. For some this is sufficient to point them in the right direction, reinforce what they have in mind, identify their talent, or for those who chose to do so, begin their journey.
The fee for the clarity session is AUD$799
The steps involved
- Think about what you would like to achieve by talking with me
- Make a booking, see below, at a time to suit
- Fill in the questionnaire you will be directed to after booking
- Set up the zoom software, explained below, to allow us to talk
- Put the time and date in your calendar
- I will email you details of our meeting and how to connect
- Fifteen minutes before our meeting I will email you again with the login information so we can test your connection and make sure everything is working prior to starting.
- If there are any problems I will call you.
The process
Once you book a time to talk, the page will direct you to an online questionnaire. This will provide me with some background information about you and your journey.
I will read what you send me, and do some thinking and research before, and after our conversation. I may need to email you for more information prior to our talk.
I use an easy to set up program, a bit like skype, called zoom for our talk. Instructions to use zoom are below. After our talk I will reflect on our conversation and send my follow up thoughts a few days later and ask you to do the same.
We will then have another zoom meeting for 30 minutes to deal with any other follow up questions you have.
How long does this take?
Our talk online will be for 90 minutes + a later 40 minutes—but that is not all that happens. In my experience we both end up spending quite a bit of time on this process—reading, reflection and writing our thoughts, often several more hours.
Be fair
I would expect you to be fair about this and to think hard before booking an appointment. Please do not make a booking unless you seriously want to explore options for your future. If I don't feel that I can help you on reading your initial information, I will inform you and return your fee.
Due to the work involved I can only accept one booking per week
To make a booking please choose a time to suit on a Tuesday or Thursday. International time zones are available as a part of the booking process and are available as you choose your time for the booking.
Payment
Via Stripe payments and must be paid in order to make your appointment time. Please also check our terms and conditions prior to your booking. Once you have booked your initial Clarity Session, you will be redirected to a questionnaire to add more details about yourself.
Zoom Meetings
These are via the zoom app, a bit like skype. You will need to have this set this up prior to our online meeting so that you are ready to start on time. I will be in touch with you 10-15 minutes prior to the meeting with the instructions to login. You do not need to be a zoom subscriber to do this, just to download the system. You may want to have a quiet room for the meeting without any distractions and a head-set if possible. This makes it easier to communicate without any echoes etc.
