Quarter-Life Coaching
WHAT IS A QUARTER-LIFER? A. Unlike the majority of life coaches out there, I acutally AM a Quarter-Lifer and I can THE 3 BIGGEST QUESTIONS As your coach, I will help you identify the answers to these questions.
I define Quarter-Lifers as anyone in their mid-20s and early 30s.
With all of the career opportunities, social and personal pressures, and various definitions of "success" out there in today's world, it's easy to become overwhelmed, confused and stressed
about making the "right" choices for ourselves.
THE REASON I CHOSE TO SPECIALIZE IN COACHING QUARTER-LIFERS:
relate to all of you out there!
B. I know from personal experience the world of difference that life coaching can make.
And I believe people our age are actually the ideal demographic with the potential to get
the most out of everything coaching has to offer! Why wait until a mid-life crisis hits
down the road—when you wake up one day wondering where your life has gone and how
you can frantically get those years back?
The younger you are when you begin to identify what you really want out of life,
the more years you will have to live with that sense of joy, purpose, and fulfillment.
I HAVE FOUND MYSELF AND OTHER FELLOW QUARTER-LIFERS ASKING:
Who Am I?
What Do I Want?
How Do I Get It?
You are the designer of your dreams, and I will help you build them as soon as
you're ready to begin!

“…after the age of 25, people tend to get settled in, and comfortable in
what they know, and therefore are afraid to do things that may bring
change into lives. This includes things like the city they live in,
the job they might be in as well the relationships they are in.
It is surely also tied to the quarter life crisis...actually, it is probably
the reason for the quarter life crisis. Once we begin to be forced to
become responsible for ourselves, we become afraid of making the wrong choices,
because if we fail, we wont have so much of our family, BFFs or roommates to fall back on.
We’ll only have ourselves. That’s a scary thought. So, when things are comfortable,
it is that much harder to take a risk that might ruin the fine balance
in which we live our lives now."

You don’t want to hear “this is just a phase, you’ll get over it” —you need answers! And what coaching clients are often most surprised by is that you actually have those answers inside!
The coaching process is a unique partnership—one that empowers you to find those answers within that you didn’t even know where there! It often takes an objective person offering guidance, the right questions, and unconditional support to help you discover the answers.
QUARTER-LIFER QUIZ
Which of the following statements resonate with you?
1. My student loans, credit card debt, and/or living expenses are so overwhelming that I often wonder how I will ever reach my financial goals.
2. I date occasionally, but I'm frustrated because I haven't found anyone that I actually want to become serious with.
3. I work long and hard hours at a mind-numbing job that I'm not even sure about for the long-run.
4. I'm completely overwhelmed about my future. These kind of questions occupy my thoughts:
"Should I travel for awhile? Go back to grad school? Should I start a business? Change careers? How am I supposed to know what's going to make me happiest in the long run?"5. I know what I want, I just don't know how to make those dreams realistically happen!
6. How am I supposed to know what I want for the rest of my life if I barely know what I want tomorrow?
7. I’m happy with my career, but way underpaid!
8. My job is decent, but I feel like I’m not making enough of a difference in the world.
9. Is my partner “The One”? How do I find the right person for me?
10. I wish I had the time to do more of the things that really make me happy!
If two or more of these statements resonated with you, then you may be either
already experiencing a Quarter-Life Crisis or on your way there.
As a fellow Quarter-Lifer, I not only understand what you're going through,
but I can also navigate you out of crisis-mode and into your dream life!
"I'm a smart girl, I went to school, and my quarter-life crisis
has to do with figuring out how to get into the settling down mode
and whether or not it's the right time for me. But it all bubbles out
to the same thing- choices. I think everyone is afraid if they're
making the right choices." ~Nakedmarzi

"I think I'm in the midst of a quarter-life crisis. I'm 22 and am so
wishy-washy about my future. One minute I'm gung-ho about
moving some place new and unexpected, and the next I just want
to move home. I have no clue about who I am or what I want to do,
all I know is I want to be rich and happy. HAH! I wish I could just
have the answer!" ~DiamondsOnTheInside
