Who Benefits from this Service? Here are a few examples:
Successful professionals, entrepreneurs, creatives, managers who have become aware that their lives have gone flat, that they have failed to find sufficient meaning in their careers or life circumstances. They may be on track to retire early, but have not yet decided what will give their lives true fulfillment thereafter. (vocation/avocation)
Young persons who are embarking on their working lives, sometimes do so with little or inadequate knowledge of themselves. While their psychological needs often revolve around developing sufficient ego strength for the stage of separation from their parents, rare and fortunate are those who intentionally connect with a worthy and satisfying life-long career.
Persons caught in a transition not of their own making, by virtue of a downsizing, mergers, layoffs or termination. These individuals have the option of viewing their new circumstances in a panic feeling compelled to "find a new job." Alternatively, they may seize this opportunity to find a truly fulfilling vocation to pursue with devotion and passion. One might say that the true "mid-life crisis" is not to have one.
Those who have experienced a life event, such as a death or accident that has made it necessary for them to reassess their lives anew. Events such as this can be viewed as the opening onto a new life perhaps quite different than before the event had occurred.
Those who are soon to be retired or have already retired. People at this stage of life are now able to enjoy the fruits of their life-long labors and devote themselves to a meaningful life in new ways. Recognizing that we now spend thirty years or more in retirement, connecting with the true purpose of life, perhaps unexplored before now, takes on new urgency.
Women whose primary adult life roles are in transition. Many have been busy wives, mothers, "soccer moms" but now their roles have changed significantly or have completed themselves. Women who are facing a life as a single person or an "empty nester" are often inspired to question the meaning and purpose of their lives thereafter. They need to connect to a deeper passion and purpose in the second half of life.
