That may have been fun or easy to answer years ago, but for teens and young
adults, it’s a question that can be disconcerting at best… and sometimes
downright frightening now that the question has become real.
Career choice is a huge decision with layers of consequence.
In Find Your Flavor, Lauren Doyle walks readers through the step-by-step
process she uses with the young adult clients she works with which
include:
Integrating your interests, strengths, and lifestyle desires to create the
recipe for the ultimate career success.
The importance of playing, experimenting, and sampling with potential
ingredients to be included in your career recipe.
How to distinguish between enduring intrigue v.s. hobby-like
interests.
Better understanding and mastering your own mind for more successful life
outcomes.
Guidance on how to get your foot in the door (or on the ladder).
Learn to use existing social networks to help you land a position in your
chosen field.
She offers specific exercises that help readers put these critical, but
often ‘invisible’ concepts to work to uncover the perfect recipe for
choosing the ideal career. Whether you are a teen considering a college
major or a young adult about to launch into a professional role, you’ll
definitely want to read this book and ‘find your flavor’ that will put you
on the path to success and life-long fulfillment.
Have you ever thought that you were alone in your struggle to have
children? Maybe you have gone through a season of depression and anxiety,
feeling alone and isolated, needing support. It is time to talk about the
truth and the struggle to overcome grief, sadness, and disappointments in
our lives.
Nothing makes us grow more than allowing our old ways to die and burying
the emotional baggage that we hold on to: the past and the pain. We want to
own it because we know nothing else. It is familiar, despite the messiness.
We carry these hard-hearted matters like heroes carrying a victorious flag.
To declare to you that the tangled narrative of my life will bring healing
to your life is certain. You choose to partner alongside me because you wish
to heal, and this is the initial step. Someone once declared, trust no one
who does not walk with a limp. Don’t trust someone who hasn’t experienced a
storm. Today, as I write these words, I walk with a physical lean, as I am
recovering from two knee surgeries. These fractured parts of my knee, my
meniscus, gravely damaged that it had to be removed, were the first of many
ailments. My ACL ligament, the one that had to be sewn back together with a
hamstring graft, is the source of my limp. Wandering around with this limp
has humbled me, only the Father knows. I own this truth of being broken and
sewn back together. More significantly, the divine surgeon has healed my
past.
