This is the FIRST "career planning" book I've read that is realistic in its approach...at least for me. No outlandish, avant-garde ideas or tactics here; Jen uses her first-hand experience to craft a book that's easy to read and understand, and a journey that's hopefully easy to follow.I had always wondered why all the articles I read on LinkedIn, Yahoo, Huffington, Facebook, etc. never worked for me. I thought I was inept, or lazy, or just didn't know how to communicate effectively. Apparently it's NOT me; traditional ways of "networking", etc., don't work for everyone and can be ineffective, producing minimal, if any, results while wasting oodles of time and energy. Jen not only explains why, but how a different approach may be best.Jen also helped me articulate WHY I was unhappy; she explains a personal set of values in this sense aren't "moral" values....it's as straight-forward as what you value in a job, people, place, industry, etc. Once I was able to define my own unique set of values, I could see the picture of my unhappiness with more clarity. I am unhappy at work BECAUSE my needs aren't being met BECAUSE my values are not supported. How enlightening is THAT??I highly recommend this book. Jen is NOT all about giving up your first born to make your dreams come true. She cautions against doing anything "rash" when you just are not emotionally prepared for it. Her honest approach endeared me to her book and to Jen herself....I am actually fortunate enough to live in Portland and be able to take her classes at our local community college:)
We all have a favorite flower; a flower that speaks to us because of it's smell, color or shape. How awesome would it be to love our careers as much as our favorite flower? Plant yourself Where You will Bloom teaches us how to discover our true passion by empowering us to clear the dirt, plant the seed, and prepare for the most beautiful flower to bloom-yourself! I loved this book. The author is genuine, funny and most importantly real.
Jennifer's book shows you how to take what makes you unique and turn it into a fulfilling career. It's the ultimate in job security! Jennifer is justifiably known as the 'Queen of Career Epiphanies' - let this book help you see and realize your full potential at work.
I have known "Coach Jen" for several years, and had the pleasure of being involved with helping her bring this wonderful book to life."Plant Yourself Where You Will Bloom" is not only packed with excellent, practical advice for creating a career you love and a life that lights you up, but it's also full of Jen's trademark humor and down-to-earth wisdom. It's fun to read and has a rare balance of idealism and practicality I haven't often seen in career-oriented books. Yes, you CAN "follow your passion" while also being realistic and responsible, and Jen helps show you how. Her advice is not just theoretical, either -- she has walked this road herself, and has helped many, many others find their way, too. She knows what she's talking about!Whether you're someone who wants to "escape" corporate life to create a business of your own, or if you simply want to make the career you have happier and more meaningful, this book will inspire you and help put you in the right mindset to succeed and thrive!
This book is a must read for anyone trying to find the work they were meant to do. Rather than just focusing on your skills and education (which many career books do), this book focuses on the ENTIRE person. This includes a review of your values, interests, talents...as well as your preferences toward environment, lifestyle, money (yes, the amount of money you make IS in your control), and how you want to interface with different types of people (who works for you, who you work for, who you serve with your work). The author's unique approach is very comprehensive....yet, simple and straight-forward. This book has left me feeling very inspired...and on the path to finding the work I was meant to do.
I am not only blooming, but gloriously blossoming. Grab a chair and a cup of tea, and curl up with Jennifer's book. You'll be glad you did. Why? Because Jennifer will take you from lost and unhappy with your work to passionately thriving in your unique niche. She helped me to do that in person, and she'll help you through this book.
Jennifer's approach makes it possible to go from just dreaming about your perfect career to making it happen in real time and real life. I spent years stuck in a safe but ultimately unrewarding job. It took courage and determination to finally get unstuck -- and I couldn't have done it without Jennifer's savvy guidance and cheerful encouragement. The fabulous thing about her book is that it not only works if you're just beginning to explore what's possible -- it offers fine tuning if you're already blooming. I heartily recommend it!
