FEEL FAMILIAR?

  • Feeling at a career crossroads but unsure what to do next?
  • Have too many career ideas in your head and can’t seem to focus on one?
  • Feel overwhelmed even when thinking about making a career change?

DESIGN THINKING CAN HELP YOU GET UNSTUCK AND MOVE FORWARD!

Designing Your Life Method provides a practical and creative way to explore career options, focus on the right-for-you ideas, and test them out in a manageable step-by-step process. It was created by two professors at Stanford University based on the thinking and inventing process of designers.

Designing Your Life Method has proven an effective way to get over the blocks that stand in your way, create career plans that align with your values, and take the steps needed to make a meaningful change in your career and personal life. Not only has Designing Your Life Method been a game changer for countless students, business professionals and those seeking the next chapter of their lives, research has shown that the 5 steps are truly effective.

THE 5 PRINCIPLES BEHIND A DESIGN THINKING MINDSET:

  • Be curious
  • Try stuff
  • Reframe problems
  • Know it's a process

FRANCESCA CARLIN

ABOUT FRANCESCA

I started my career as a theater professional. It was great at first but over the years I found myself feeling burned out and unsatisfied.

Luckily, I stumbled upon Bill Burnett and Dave Evans’ book Designing Your LIfe: How to Build a Well-lived and Joyful Life and it started me on my own “way-finding” journey. There were a few different career stops in between, but I found my path to a rewarding and meaningful career as a coach and trainer. On the other side of my training and coaching business, I work with academics on presentation skills and storytelling for their academic research, academic leadership, and with women in academia on coping with pressure in a highly competitive and high-pressure environment.

I hold both a Bachelor of Fine Arts and a Masters of Fine Arts in acting. During another turn in my road, I completed a Masters of Arts in Russian. I am also an accredited Transformational Coach through Animas and a certified Designing Your Life Coach.
