I’m pleased to offer my next 5-week class for women jobseekers in NYC this spring. I’m always inspired by the participants and look forward to working with a new group of talented women.
The exact dates are:
Monday, April 5
Monday, April 12
Monday, April 19
Monday, April 26
Monday, May 3
Please see http://lyjnow.wordpress.com/lyj-search for more details or feel free to email me directly at lyjnow@gmail.com. Early registration ends March 31.
Since it is March 1, I like to begin by writing a vision for the month. To do this, look at your goals or resolutions for the year. Then visualize the end of the month arriving and write down the joyful things you’d like to see take place as well as movement forward on your goals for this month. Write down your vision in paragraph form and re-read at least once/week. You’ll be amazed when the end of the month comes and you’ve achieved the vision. You can also test out this technique in weekly format.
Nicole Lisa and I will be leading a telephone check-in at the end of March for our 2010 Best Year Ever workshop participants as well as anyone who set goals for themselves this year. See http://lyjnow.wordpress.com/events-and-workshops for more details and to register.
I’m excited to offer my second class for women job seekers in DC beginning March 2 for five consecutive Tuesdays. See all of the details here. I look forward to working with talented women in DC on their job searches. Please email me at alyssa@alyssabest.com for more info and to secure a spot.
Here are a couple of testimonials from participants in the last LYJ Search seminar in DC:
“LYJ Search helped inspire me when I felt as though I was hitting a wall in my job search. Alyssa guided us through useful discussions and exercises, which allowed me to believe more fully in myself and my potential. I feel more confident in my abilities to form relationships with people in my field, utilize my constantly expanding networks, and submit a strong application. Alyssa is a positive and helpful coach who was able to adapt the seminar to the specific needs of the participants and I’m thankful to her for helping me open my eyes to the many opportunities that present themselves on a daily basis. I highly recommend this seminar to anyone who will ever search for a job.” –P.
“Alyssa was fabulous to work with! LYJ Search was an inviting environment where I was able to really focus on what I want in a career. While the workshop covered all aspects of job searching, Alyssa was open to adjustments based on our needs. Alyssa helped me remain positive and she provided fresh ideas for today’s job seeker.” –Carrie
I’m excited to offer my fourth class for women jobseekers beginning February 1 for five consecutive Mondays. See all of the details here. I know that 2010 holds much opportunity in store for jobseekers and I’m glad to be able to work with talented women in NYC on their searches. Please email me at lyjnow (at) gmail.com for more info and to secure a spot.
Here are a few testimonials from some of the women I’ve been so fortunate to work with:
“I’m so happy that I participated in Suzanne’s LYJ workshop. Suzanne provided the right combination of tools for personal and career exploration and concrete search methods. I really enjoyed meeting other fabulous job-seekers whose support and feedback helped revive me in my job search!” -Rosalia
“I want to thank you for your ongoing support. It truly keeps me uplifted in challenging times. I feel lucky to have met you – and actually many great people – through this search process. I certainly could not have looked at my life in March and seen all these wonderful new people and opportunities.” -Jessica
“LYJ, and getting to know Suzanne, changed the way I approached the crucial work of job-searching. Suzanne introduced to me a compassionate, thoughtful approach to job searching. The seminar made me a believer in affirmative thinking around the process, as well as equipped me with a whole new toolbox full of tools to make the best use of my time working towards my dream job. Suzanne has an amazing talent for seeing all possible connections between people: a modern guru on networking. Suzanne has maximized her natural talents to help others with LYJ, which was tremendously valuable for me.” – Summer
LYJ Best Year Ever Workshop on Sunday, January 17
Here’s a picture from our Best Year Ever workshop on Sunday. We had ten fabulous participants all excited about what’s to come in 2010. The most powerful part for me is flipping around limiting beliefs into new statements about who we want to be in the New Year. We’re excited to offer 3 check-ins during the year to follow up on progress. A great way to start off the year!
As part of the pre-assignments for the 2010 Best Year Ever workshop Nicole and I are leading on Sunday, January 10 and Sunday January 17, we ask participants to consider the following questions. I answered many of these same questions myself in 2009 in order to create a juicy full year and intend to do the same for 2010.
Guided Goal-Setting Questions – (Answer as many as you’d like)
- What was the MOST FUN you had in 2009? Is this something you can yes to immediately for 2010?
- What was something that has been on your mind to do for the past 3 years, 5 years, 10 years?
- What’s a place you’ve visited that you’ve been dreaming of going back to?
- What’s a place you’ve never been to that you’ve been dreaming of visiting?
- What personal goal, if accomplished, would really make you proud and happy?
- What professional goal, if accomplished, would really make you proud and happy?
- What would your best summer ever look like? (Best fall? Best spring? Best winter?)
- What didn’t you get to do last year that you’d really like to do this year?
- Who didn’t you get to see last year that you’d like to see?
- What makes you feel alive and like life is GOOD?
- What’s a larger goal you have that might take 2-3 years, 5 years or 10 years to complete?
- What could you do in 2010 toward the above goal?
- If 2010 came to an end and you thought – that was a fantastic year – what kinds of things would have taken place?
