Work / Work Balance with Steven Fogel
from Better Bolder Braver · host Frances Fogel, Cheerleader-in-Chief
What connects Property Law to the BBC, Freud to Modern Dance, Classical Music to Swimming in Swiss Lakes, Film Production to Music Festivals and the National Garden Scheme to Venice Biennale. My Dad... I talk a lot about what I call a "work/work" balance (as opposed to the well known concept of the work/life balance). Coaches - in particular - are very likely to have chosen to move into the coaching space as a way not only to help others flourish, but because the attraction of a more independent, entrepreneurial, creative and joyful work life are very attractive to them. They may class themselves as having reached their "midlife", see themselves on a "Second Mountain", be disillusioned by the corporate world, by being beholden to the 9-5 structure of time, or just bored of the rat race... Covid and Working From Home have helped us all reconsider our options. But bills need to be paid. And when you are just starting out as a coach, getting clients can be tough. So sometimes we need to do other work to supplement our income. AND, when we have a unique blend of work practices going on, it can really help to make us stand out... as long as we are able to speak to why the various hats we wear make us an Authority, have Empathy, and have an interesting Story enough that people want to work with us, employ us, appoint us or ask us for our help. My father is Steven Fogel. I am going to be interviewing him on Thursday 20th October about his life. He has had "a lucky discovery that left him feeling happier and more fulfilled." Here's what happened...
