Career Counseling

How do you decide on what to do as a career? Especially when you are freshly out of school without much experience but rather some internship or volunteer experience? Should we follow the path of our parents? Should we settle on getting decent pay or have enough freedom at work? Should we take our job seriously enough, pour our 100% energy into it, and get burnout? Or perhaps you just got laid off and felt stuck in a position with no future? We can start structured sessions to explore.

When facing changes, one of the questions we often confront is who am I and what do I want to do with this short life?
