The (harsh?) Reality...
Beth Hocking | Leadership Coach for Ambitious Women Leaders

The (harsh?) Reality...

So many ambitious women I talk to have big goals and dreams. They’re dedicated, passionate, and driven.

But…they’re also stuck.

They’re looking for the “best path” to take towards success and ask me what I think of their ideas.

But there’s one problem: they’re unconsciously searching for a “perfect” path.

Here’s the (harsh?) Reality:

There’s no such thing as the “best” path.

None of us will ever find a flawless, stress-free road to success.

Why? Because life doesn’t work that way.

We’re all human, and we can’t predict every twist and turn.

Imagine you’re on a trail. One path looks serene and straightforward, while the other looks challenging and uncertain.

You might be tempted to choose the easier path, but that doesn’t mean it’s the right one. In fact, it might lead you straight off a cliff.

The tougher path, while not as pretty, might actually be the one that gets you where you want to go.

Success requires growth, and growth often comes from challenges.

If you’re always looking for the easiest route, you’re missing out on the opportunities to stretch yourself and truly progress.

So, stop waiting for the “best” path.

Start taking action, embrace the challenges, and watch how far you can go.

You’ve got this and I'm cheering for you!

About Beth

After a 20 year Career in Sales with a FTSE top 5 client, I couldn't ignore that the ambitious Women Leaders in Corporate weren't being seen, heard or valued as much as they deserved to be.

I set about to change that, left my secure role and set up a coaching business. My mission is to readdress the gender balance in senior Leadership across the Globe.

I coach Women Leaders to Elevate their Career. whether thats enhancing their Executive Presence, or Gaining the Confidence they need to advocate for themselves. Whatever it is that is holding them back - I partner with them to break down the barriers, so that they can get that well deserved promotion, reach the next step on the ladder and be paid their worth.

If this is you and you'd like to chat more about how coaching could support your next career move - book your call here https://calendly.com/bethhocking/30min and let's chat!
