Career Happiness Program

These programs are session-based and it’s advisable you try and commit to at least 2 sessions per month. Or 1 session per month. 

I work with busy professionals who prefer flexibility and time for reflection between each session. If you find it easier, we can agree on bi-weekly sessions too.

This program is bespoke to you and can always be adapted if need be.

Session 1 also includes access to a Artificial technology careers software quiz that you can do and I as a careers adviser can talk about some of the careers that come up. This is especially helpful if you are confused about your career ort looking to change it.

The sessions will be done online via Zoom or Google Meet.

Additional extras for the program 

  • Unlimited WhatsApp support or email support 

  • A Career Happiness Workbook to work through 

  • Access to Online workshops if needed

  • Career research is included if you as the client need it 

  • Extra resources may be included based on your needs

  • Access to AI careers technology platform to help you with your career planning and awareness of your skills and values.

What Lisa had to say about her experience:

I have enjoyed working with Soma because she is approachable and easy to talk to. Soma really listens to you and takes into account your personal needs and characteristics when she coaches you. Everything is tailored to you 

I would recommend her to friends  and family because I know how hard she works and how good she is. She really helps you to explore what you want to do with your career.

 Reasons why this program is for you or isn’t

 

Why this program is for you ✅

  • You have tried to motivate myself but realise you can’t do it yourself and need support to help me get there. 

  • You need non judgemental advice from a professional who isn’t a someone who is family member or friend and will listen to you empathically without criticising your thoughts and opinions 

  • You have tried to research new careers, apply for jobs and even go on courses but still feel stuck and like your career isn’t the way you want it to be. 

  • You need to start taking action in a way that is based around your values and get some resolve and reflection around what you need, to help you move forward in your career. 

  • You have realised you haven’t been living a life or career that you actually wanted and went on a traditional route to please others around you. 

  • You thought about changing the course of your career before but put it off because you felt like maybe you were ok and it must of just been something everyone faces from time to time. 

  • You have felt alone and not listened to by others when you have needed advice and support and know if you don’t change something now you may leave your career because it’s making you that unhappy. 

 

Why this program isn’t ❌

  • Friends and family have talked you out it of because of fear of spending unnecessary money

  • Perhaps you are making it a bigger problem than it is and maybe this is just something you need to face and it will go away. 

  • Who am to want more and haven’t I got enough already 

  • Is it worth risking the career I already have and what will it cost me 

  • Is it worth the money and what will I really learn or get moving forward 

  • Is it worth my time and how will it really help me with my career Development 

  • Can you really help me and will it require me to take action to make it happen?  

  • Are any changes I make worth it in the long run?

Common FAQs 

 Do you offer any refunds or money back for services? 

No, I don't offer refunds on my sessions. If you fail to come to the session I will give you one more chance to rearrange this session. If you pay in advance and I have to re- arrange a session will always let you know at least 48 hours in advance unless of a family emergency or otherwise. 

Do you offer a free session or consultation before I decide to work with you? 

Not currently the 35 minute consultation I offer gives you a taster of what it’s like to work with me. Plus we can talk about careers program I offer. If you decide to not go any further with the program is never any pressure. However if you want longer term results with your career if may benefit you to take it up.

Can I withdraw from a program or stop having sessions? 

You can decide to withdraw but it needs to be for a valid reason like illness or a family emergency etc.  You need to commit to at least 4 sessions for the 6-12 sessions program. Or 2 sessions for the 4 session program. Failure to commit means your money won’t be refunded or I will simply write an email informing you that we can’t work together anymore as this is a 2 way collaboration to help support you with your career.  

What happens if I don’t turn up to a session/ sessions? 

You need to have a good reason for not turning up to a session. Please let me know via email if you can’t. You will get at least 3 reminders from me about a session at least a week before. This will include an email and a Whatsapp message. If you then fail to come to a session I will phone you on the day. 

What happens if I only make one payment via the installment plan? 

If you pay via the instalment plan and only make 1 payment but not the rest you will only be able to have half the sessions you sign up for. So please make sure you pay before payment deadlines when necessary.  You will be given at least 2 reminders before the deadline failure to this means you won’t be able to get any further support. 

Why do the sessions and programs cost what they do? 

These sessions and programs cost what they do because of the 15+ years of experience I have had as a careers adviser. You are getting tailor-made support for your career. I am offering you careers advice and support to help you with your career. It also costs what it does because you get additional support after the session and this service is designed with you in mind. The costs are there because you are paying for time, knowledge and experience to help you get a better job, start a business or give you bespoke career counselling to help you move forward. There is a lot of information out there but this is a bespoke service and I tailor my career advice sessions for each client as the true individual they really are. 

I am also available to you on weekdays via email or whatsapp to answer any questions and provide laser careers advice or career counselling in between sessions so you don’t feel like you are your own. You will be given extra resources like a career happiness workbook and additional exercises should you need them. You will also get additional and beta access to new resources I am working on if you want them. 

What is the main difference between a consultation and the session-based program and how will I know what to commit to? 

The consultation is an opportunity for you to discuss your current situation and see if you want to commit to a longer term program. I can answer one main careers advice question for you in this call but it’s mainly about us looking at how the program could benefit you and how I can support you.

The session based program is designed to help you get on-going support to help you commit to making changes in your career and life. If you are confused about your career, want to make a career change, start a business or build on a portfolio career this program can help you explore and start taking action towards your professional and personal development. It also requires you to make a longer term commitment to help you develop your career.

In terms of commitment I am happy to discuss this with you in your initial consultation. If you feel after this you need more time or are not ready to commit that’s fine. If you come back to within at least 1 month and say you are ready the amount you pay for the consultation will be deducted from the number of sessions you choose for the program.
