A Roadmap to a Career you Love

11 May 2019, 10:00-13:30

Buurtcentrum Sterrenzicht, Keerkringplein 40, 3582 PM Utrecht

(8 min. walking from Utrecht Vaartsche Rijn station)

"After experimenting different career paths, I have finally found a way that works to help me choose a job that makes me feel  balanced, happy and on the way to fulfillment, and I'd love to share that with you."

‍

Today’s fast-paced world focuses a lot on efficiency and productivity, placing our work lives in the center of our identity and sense of self-worth. It tells us we are as good as the work we do. But we are left with barely no time to carefully reflect on what we really want out of it. How can you make sure that your work is aligned with who you are and contributes to a balanced and fulfilling life?

Based on specific methodologies and Natália’s own experience across different careers, this 3-hour workshop will offer you some structure about how you can design a career path that contributes to your overall happiness. You will leave with a proposed roadmap, different steps and suggestions; a guide to help you build a career you love.

This workshop is particularly helpful if you are:

• Wondering if you have made the wrong choices in your professional life;
• Unhappy in your current work role (demotivated, feeling stuck or lost ) but not sure where to go next;
• Pretty confident of what you’d like to do next in your career, but not sure where to start and how best to get there;
• Seeking a career that you genuinely love.

This is not a workshop about how to write a CV or apply to job (though we will briefly talk about it too); it's about finding a career path that will really contribute to your sense of fulfillment and joy.

[The workshop on 18 May allows you to dig deeper into some aspects, and is a great follow-up to the morning session. Check the 'Combo offer' below.]

Workshop language: English.

Registration fee: €40 per person. Bring a friend and pay only €65 for both. VAT included for individuals; VAT excluded for companies.

Registrations are open on a 'first come, first served' basis until the workshop is full, but we encourage you to register preferably before Tuesday, 7 May 2019.

Re-discovering Yourself: Steps towards a meaningful life

18 May 2019, 10:00-13:30

Buurtcentrum Sterrenzicht, Keerkringplein 40, 3582 PM Utrecht

(8 min. walking from Utrecht Vaartsche Rijn station; see map below)

"For years, I ran on automatic pilot. And I thought I was enjoying it... but I was not happy and it was not a healthy lifestyle. That has now changed!"

‍

This small workshop is great as a follow-up to the one on 11 May (see above), or simply by itself. Based on Natália's own experience as well as on some classical and more recent literature (namely on positive psychology and personal coaching), it aims to create a space for discovery and reflection about your identity, your life goals and priorities. Finding the road to happiness requires you to be aware of who you are, what drives you and your actions in the word (or what blocks them), and what direction you feel you should follow.

This 3-hours workshop will include several exercises and offer you some tools to help you uncover these issues and make the first steps towards identifying your own personal mission. At the end, participants will have gained a greater sense of awareness about themselves and their options, as well as concrete ideas and actions to achieve a more balanced and meaningful life.

This workshop is particularly helpful if you are:

• Feeling lost or stuck in life, not sure where to go next;
• Too focused on your job and missing the rest of life, probably working close to exhaustion or near a burn-out;
• Curious about how to overcome your fears;
• Looking for meaning and purpose in your life.

Workshop language: English.

Registration fee: €40 per person. Bring a friend and pay only €65 for both. VAT included for individuals; VAT excluded for companies.

Registrations are open on a 'first come, first served' basis until the workshop is full, but we encourage you to register preferably before Tuesday, 13 May 2019.

Combo offer (11+18 May only)

Roadmap to a Career you Love  +  Re-discovering Myself

Combining both these workshops (on 11 and 18 May morning) is a great idea: you will really learn about what defines you and makes you happy, and how best to link it with your career path.

If you wish to attend both these workshops, there is a special price for registering to both: €60 per person (VAT included for individuals; VAT excluded for companies). Just chose the combo option when registering.

(Re)Inventing Myself: Re-discovering my life & career abroad

24 May 2019, 09:00-13:00

Volksuniversiteit Utrecht, Nieuwegracht 41, 3512 LE

With guest speaker Manuela Caramujo,

Journalist & 'Living abroad' expert

A workshop ideal for recent and long-term expats or those now considering a move abroad (for work, study, love...).

‍

Moving to a new country brings with it very specific challenges, and it’s often hard to deal with all the personal and professional changes related to it. How can you deal with a new culture, no friends, career frustration, overall uncertainty and find (again) a balanced life and fulfilling career?

This workshop aims to create a space for reflection on the personal and professional challenges of (regularly) moving abroad and how best to deal with them. At the end, participants will have gained a greater sense of awareness about themselves and their options, as well as concrete ideas and actions to achieve a more balanced life while living abroad.

The workshop has 3 parts, including exercises:

• Part I: Discovering yourself - Finding your own happy spot;
• Part II: Moving abroad - Coping with the different phases of adaptation in a new country;
• Part III: Towards a fulfilling career - Steps to build a successful career.

Registration fee: €40 per person. Bring a friend and pay only €65 for both. VAT included for individuals; VAT excluded for companies.

Registrations are open on a 'first come, first served' basis until the workshop is full, but we encourage you to register preferably before Monday, 17 May 2019.

Workshop language: English.
