Ready to Make a Career Change with Expert Guidance?

MAKE IT HAPPEN

Find a clear sense of direction with a practical roadmap and an accountability partner to help you make a successful career transition.

There’s an Alternative Reality Where You Made That Career Change You’ve Been Dreaming Of

But fear stops you. The risk of the ‘what if’ prevents you from living this alternate reality.

You know what you want.

But a whole career change? You might just crash and burn, and we don’t want that.

It’s tempting.

To stay in your comfort zone and avoid the risk of change. Where it’s uncomfortable, and you don’t have to change a thing.

But imagine making that change.

What if you had the support and guidance you needed to make this decision a reality?

But also, ask yourself this.

Are you living the life you truly desire?
In a career that you truly want?

”Ricardo was a true beacon of clarity in the midst of uncertainty.

His ability to facilitate self-reflection and untangle the knots in my mind with empathy and guidance when facing a career crossroad was extremely helpful and helped me gain invaluable insights into my own potential and values.

A Ten-Week Program to Make a Successful Career Transition

With Make It Happen, you'll receive expert coaching, a structured roadmap, and unwavering support to make your career transformation a reality.

This longer 10-session program ensures that every aspect of your career change is thoughtfully addressed, setting you up for lasting success and fulfilment.

While the program is tweaked according to your needs, here’s an outline of the sessions in the coaching process:

  • MAPPING OUT YOUR VISION

    Your journey begins with an in-depth exploration in the first two sessions. I’ll engage you in a conversation to understand your unique strengths, values, motivations, perspective on life and desired goal or outcome from the program.

    The first two sessions are set to define the goal or outcome of the program and set priorities.

    Through guided discussions, the foundation is laid for their transformative journey by setting clear goals, timelines and priorities.

  • NAVIGATING PATHWAYS AND DIRECTION

    We’ll dive into the various career options that align with your interests and values.

    Accordingly, I’ll create tailored experiments to experiment with the different career paths open to you.

    The spotlight is turned on the insights gathered from these experiments and analysing the key takeaways. We begin narrowing down the options and deciding on experiments to validate assumptions, understand trade/offs while clearing out doubts.

    This phase allows you to ensure that your choices align with your life’s vision in a process that closes doors while sometimes opening new ones.

  • SEEING THE WAY FORWARD

    Mid-way through the program, we’ll have gained enough insights to make a clear decision on your career direction or prioritise the options decided on during the previous two sessions.

    Your chosen option(s) will start to take shape and it’s finally time to take action. Based on these insights, we’ll develop a hands-on roadmap, complete with a timeline, to make it a reality.

    This roadmap is practical and actionable, outlining all the necessary steps required to make your career transition.

  • EXECUTING THE VISION

    The final part of the program is key to a successful career transition and that comes with hands-on coaching support.

    A plan without action doesn’t amount to anything which is why mentoring and support to execute the goal is the most invaluable part of the program.

    These last sessions are a platform for you to navigate through challenges. As your coach, I’ll provide invaluable support in the form of strategy, guidance and accountability. You'll have the opportunity to discuss any challenges you encounter during your career change and receive clarity on your next steps.

    I’ll be our dedicated accountability partner to ensure that you stay on track and make progress towards your goals.

You Still Have Decades Left in Your Career.  
But You Can Make It Happen Now.

I have to warn you. This is going to be a challenging ride.

It’ll be overwhelming and sometimes feel like it’s going nowhere. But that’s the reality of any career transition.
Which is why I’m here.

It’s time to stop fearing the risks of making a career change.

Discover what a well-planned and risk-mitigated transition looks like to navigate a successful career transition.

Let me be the accountability partner you need on this journey.

Is this Program for me?

The Make It Happen Program Is Perfect if You:

  • Are ready to take action and make a significant career change.

  • Have an intense desire for personal and professional growth

  • Are eager to explore what’s next for you and willing to undertake the necessary support and guidance

This program is not the right fit for you at the moment if you:

  • Are looking for a quick fix. We’re talking about the rest of your life, after all.

  • Have zero idea of what your next career could look like (in that case, the New Futures program will help you figure that out)

  • Don’t like being challenged and prefer to stay in your comfort zone

F.A.Q.

  • The Make It Happen program consists of ten sessions lasting 60-90 minutes each.

  • The program typically takes place over the course of 4 months. However, depending on your needs, timelines and commitments, it can become longer or shorter.

  • It’s advised to do so. If you feel at a certain point you would like to pause the process, or you got everything you wanted from the program, we can discuss how can we use the remaining sessions in the future.

  • While you don’t need to be 100% certain of their options, the ‘Make It Happen’ program is for individuals who are ready to make a career transition, who are aware of the available career paths open to them. If you're unsure and want to find your next career path, the New Futures program will be a better fit for you.

  • Item descriptionVia remote video calls that take place every two weeks.

  • While you can refer to the ‘What you get out of the Make It Happen’ section for more details, the tangible inclusions cover personalised 1:1 sessions, customised exercises to test out various options that are open to you, a practical roadmap for the next steps and an accountability partner (me!) to make the transition successful. Of course, there is also chat support beyond the sessions. Item description

  • Bank transfer in full

  • Of course! I’m here to create a safe space for you and value your privacy. Your personal information will never be disclosed without your consent.

  • If you are not ready to do a bigger investment you have two options.

    1. You can try my Career Surfers Program, which is a cost-sensitive self-paced course to help you choose your next career path.

    2. Book a 90 min session with me, where we can go over the main issues you are facing at the moment and we can create a small plan how you can address it by yourself.

  • That’s what that first discovery call is for. It’s a free 45 minute consultation call that allows me to assess if you’re a good fit for this program and more importantly, if I can help you. If I personally think the program won’t work for you, I’ll let you know.

The Make It Happen Program Is a Long-Term Investment That Will Set You up for the Rest of Your Life.
