Work Life Coaching
“Last year I was working in a job with little flexibility, had a punishing two hour commute and non-stop pressure from a micromanaging boss. I sought Elaine’s help to regain perspective. She helped me identify the ideal work conditions for me – and what to stay away from. She encouraged me to re-evaluate my priorities and did an assessment that showed I was well suited to self employment. After serious reflection, I decided to make the lifestyle changes that allowed me to leave my job and start my own business.”

According to a recent survey in the US, four out of ten employees state that their jobs are “very” or “extremely” stressful.
The new work reality is that individuals –particularly upper income professionals and executives – are working longer hours than ever before. The pressure to keep up with work, new technology, and industry developments is becoming more intense.The home dynamic is also changing with 68% of households now dual income, more single parent families, and less support from far-flung extended families.
