Career & Life Planning for Women With ADHD – 2016

Career & Life Planning is more than about finding the “Perfect Job.” We all live our life in “chapters.” We want to make the best life choices we can in each chapter, given our strengths and challenges.

Learning how to tackle what seems like an overwhelming task of deciding “what to do next,” can ease the anxiety of uncertainty, reduce the possibility of failure, and provide us with renewed joy, facing each of life’s “next steps.”

This session lays a philosophical foundation for making good career & life choices; discusses a systematic approach to gathering necessary data for good choices; discusses how to guarantee that your “NEXT choice” will fit you even more than previous choices; and includes a Q & A about all things related to career & life planning issues.
