Andrea Kay: Career Change Boot Camp

You could have a new career doing meaningful work in a way that works for you

I want you to imagine yourself hopping out of bed–yes, hopping–bursting with energy because you can’t wait to get to your work.

Imagine that your work is not only fun and keeps you on your toes, but it matters. And your life is better for it too.

What if you could have a career that lets you do rewarding work and makes a difference? That capitalizes on your talents and helps you live the life you want? Don’t you deserve a career that’s meaningful to you?

What if you could have more control over your life, more time with your family? What if you could get past the cobwebs and figure out a way to be who you are?

You can. If you take the simple step to learn the roadmap and tools to changing careers.

If you’re serious about achieving your goals and dreams, you need to know about these two days

Have you been downsized or let go after 10 or 20 years? Are you early on in your career and not happy? Or are you examining “What next?” at middle age?

If you are serious about having a better life and a career that fits you, you can have it.

It starts with two powerful days.

Let me say right up front: This will not be your typical 2-day seminar. In just two days you will learn how to figure out your greatest talents. What you’d like your career to be like. You’ll learn how to work through your worries and have a new career despite them. You’ll learn the first steps to develop a strategy to go after your new career. And I will personally teach you all of this and more…so you can have a career that uses your talents and helps you live the life you want.

In two days, you’ll come away with insight and ideas to be well on your way to having the career you want. You’ll learn the pathway to pursue your new career that would otherwise take weeks, maybe months to acquire.

Are you ready to leave your soul-robbing job behind and have the career you always fantasized about?

You don’t have to be like hundreds of people who tell me they want more from their work but never find it because they don’t know how to get there. Now you can learn how.

Why fall into the trap of thinking it’s too overwhelming to figure out what you want to do? That it’s just too complicated or that you can’t afford to make a change? Now you can learn how to deal with your fears and achieve your career goals.

You don’t have to be like so many other people who look back and say, “I wish I had.” While others are getting up and dragging themselves to do work they dread, in these two days you can take the steps to have a new, rewarding career.

You can be learning strategies that will take you from being stuck and unsure toward a plan to have more meaning and satisfaction in your work. Why should you tolerate being stuck in a rut or in a career you dislike?

Do you want to keep employers hungry for your talents?

I’ll show you a new way of thinking about your career that will help you get to a new career and the next job or career after that.

You’ll learn approaches that will build your confidence and keep you excited about your work and help you stay employable in a marketplace that’s constantly changing.

It’s like having your own Career Change Team

Another thing that makes these two days so valuable will be the small but powerful group of professionals going through the same thing as you.

Besides my personalized guidance, you’ll get input from people just like you who want more satisfaction in their work. Along with them, you’ll gain confidence and confirmation that you are not alone.

You’ll have the ability to brainstorm and get support from them after our 2-day retreat as you go to the next phase of your journey. And you’ll be building a support team–one of the essentials to your career change success.

Here’s just some of what you’ll gain at my Career Change Boot Camp:

  • A roadmap and tools to take you from being lost to being on a path to your new career
  • Systematic steps to figure out what you want to do
  • Steps to systematically launch a career change
  • Insight on how to capitalize on your past to get to your future
  • Understanding how to make a change–even if you’re clueless
  • A look at what would make you happy in a career
  • Insight into what’s holding you back and how to steam roll over what’s getting in your way
  • Courage, camaraderie and practical knowledge that puts you on a path to pursue your passion
  • Confidence to make a change
  • Support, encouragement and strength to live your dream
  • Clarity and reinforcement of your skills, talents and abilities
  • Steps for getting ridding of negative thoughts that hold you back
  • Tools you’ll use in this career change–and forever
  • Strategies to test your new career idea and get others to help you define, tweak then create your new career
  • Insight into how to find the time to make a career change

The Boot Camp has a strict limit of 15 people. No more. I’m keeping it small so that I can give maximum personal attention to everyone. I want to personally take you through the steps to find a new, rewarding career. So no more than 15 people.

Don’t end up “wishing I had…”

In the 20 plus years I’ve been doing this work I can’t count how many people have told me, “I wish I had changed careers when I had the chance.”

You don’t have to look back and regret the 15, 20 or 30 years of dread you spent dragging yourself to a job you hated.

You don’t have to give up your chance for more meaning and satisfaction in your work. These two days can be your first steps to have the career you deserve. Here’s my unconditional guarantee: Come to the first day of my Boot Camp. If you are not completely satisfied with what you experience on day one, I will give you a refund for your entire registration fee (minus a $150 processing fee). No questions asked.

What’s it worth to go from limbo to a more meaningful career?

Why would you want to spend another day depressed and gloomy about your career situation? Especially when there’s a way to achieve the career you really want. What’s it worth to have a career that lets you spend more time with your family? Where you’re using your greatest talents. That is meaningful and lets you be who you really are. Write me today for more details on the roadmap to get there.

Are you ready to have a new, rewarding career?

You’ll be kicking yourself if you go back to a job or career another day that’s keeping you from doing what you’ve always dreamed of. So what are you waiting for? Just remember, with my money-back guarantee, you risk nothing. In fact you risk more by staying stuck and not taking action to change things.

If you’ve ever said to yourself:

  • “I want more…”
  • “I’m not using my talents…”
  • “I’ve got to do something that has more meaning…”

…isn’t it about time you made that big decision to change your life?

Isn’t it time you finally set aside the time to do what needs to be done?

I look forward to hearing from you so that we can begin.

  • "I was completely stuck in my career, and actually very sad. Imagine a grown woman crying every Sunday night because of Monday's approach. The job was not bad, I had the best coworkers...I was simply unfulfilled. After [going through the steps] I committed to 15 days of pure 'thinking' about the things I had learned about myself with your help. Now, 7 months later, I have successfully transitioned careers. Not only that, I got the job for an additional $15k pay increase and have started a Masters degree in Industrial-Organizational Psychology...did I mention that I love my job!? I got everything that I had written down as the 'things that I want' because I took this seriously."
    -- Dorana Sylvia, Washington, D.C.
  • "When I started Step 1, my eyes started welling up with tears. It's like you understand what I'm feeling and going through. Thank you for putting this...together."
    -- Government worker
  • "I have been trying to determine a new career focus for the past 3 years. I now have a clear direction! Your approach seems designed to whittle away the extraneous so that the overall patterns emerge. Your support, insight and ability to ask penetrating questions allowed me to gain the clarity that I had been searching for in all those other explorations. I just can't thank you enough for all your help. I am so excited to be embarking upon a new path!"
    -- Professional in Massachusetts
  • "I really listened to what you had to say and took it to heart and now work from a home office 75% of the time. I am happy to be out of the corporate and cube culture and have a better quality of life. It's nice to feel that I have power to make a difference and will be valued (both monetarily and psychologically) for it. I truly feel this is my next step on my path and don't think I would have realized this quickly how badly it was needed without [you]."
    -- Beth, California

    -- Karen, technical writer
  • "I recently left a 24-year career making big bucks, to a brand new career serving senior citizens with dementia. It is the greatest decision I ever made.

    -- Thrilled worker in Washington
  • "When talking to Andrea Kay, something totally unexpected came. An insight into myself. She showed me things about myself that I did not see at all. It was like Andrea had known me for 25 years!

She was absolutely right. I no longer dread getting out of bed to go to work in the morning."
