I can't believe it has been a month since I last added anything to this blog, where does the time go to? Mind you, how often do we say that? Ages since I spoke to someone or visited them, tempus does indeed fugit.
Well, the truth is that I have been busy looking for a job. For a while now I have been concerned about how I would occupy myself over the summer holidays away from the teaching and I am really missing a few of the little luxuries I have been without over the last 18 months, most notably holidays!
We were lucky enough this year to be invited to a family holiday in Cornwall which was smashing, but as it approached, I realised that it might be a long time off til the next one. So, I decided that I would start looking round, only with the proviso that the job must be one I really wanted as I will be giving up some good stuff for it, it must be worthy of that.
I was shocked and delighted to be offered only the third job I applied for, for the British Red Cross. I am now working my notice from the jigsaw of roles I have built up for myself including the teaching and getting learners into volunteering for the WEA, which I will miss. What I am hoping is that as I walk round those Xmas markets in December, our next planned holiday, I will look back at this decision and know it was the right one. But, Walker Wellbeing remains as the coaching is vital, for me and for my clients who really want to change. Like me, looking at the journey and making those big decisions.
Welcome to the blogger of an absolute beginner...
Well, as a woman of a certain age setting up a business I have heard so much about the power of Social Marketing. I have even been to a seminar this week which made sense, well all except the acronyms. So I am going to give it a go.
I am a great people person and a great coach and if this is the way to tell you all about that...then I am up for moving out of my comfort zone just like a good coach should be. (The words great and technology will never appear in the same sentence for me though.)
We are of course assuming that I ever find this blog again.
