You Are Free Declaration of Independence

The result of our work is that you are able to make the change you’ve talked about for years―you can move away from the job you’ve hated and towards work that allows you to express who you are, work that takes advantage of your unique gifts and talents.

     

You Are Free Process
How can I take the leap out of my corporate jobsafely?

Leaving your job for a created “worklife” begins with understanding who YOU are―your motivations, interests and sense of purpose―and how your want to exercise who you are in the world. Once you’ve considered your options, within the context of your personal needs, you are ready to create a specific plan or strategy for success. Finally, you will need to take action on it. Here’s what you need to know:

  1. Rediscover “you”
  2. Generate options―options―options
  3. Get grounded in your reality―take stock of your needs
  4. Construct a powerful vision for your future
  5. Create your “Roadmap for Success”
  6. Leverage your skills for maximum return
  7. Package who you are and what you know
  8. Exercise your creativity/intellectual capital
  9. Overcome job undertow and other obstacles to success
  10. Become proactive by setting up plans, controls and systems

These are the steps of the You Are Free Process, which have helped countless individuals in their desire to move away from feeling “owned” by a company to becoming free. Clients find that this process enables them to take the leap they’ve always dreamed about―with a sense of confidence and resolve.

So, why this sense of confidence when it seems pretty clear that leaving something secure, like a full-time corporate job, seems very risky?

Well, that’s exactly the point. Working with the You Are Free Process, you minimize the risk involved in taking your bold step forward. You will eliminate guesswork and a haphazard approach by creating a very specific plan of action and ways of implementing this plan for success. Clients say this helped to reduce the fear they felt in making such a big change.

Going through the steps, you form a firm foundation―you will know exactly who you are, what’s important to you, what you want and what you need, and where you want to go. This foundation keeps you from getting derailed and keeps you focused. Based on this understanding of yourself, you will construct a specific plan for taking action, anticipating and planning for different scenarios, while incorporating your own financial needs.

Does it work? Yes . . .

The result of our work is that you are able to make the change you’ve talked about for years―you can move away from the job you’ve hated and towards work that allows you to express who you are, work that takes advantage of your unique gifts and talents. Don’t take my word for it. Look at what some clients have had to say in
Client Testimonials.

Who am I?

As Founder of You Are Free®, I have helped countless individuals in making the transition away from full-time corporate employment to creating work they love. After working for a U.S. Senator, advising businesses and foreign governments on international countertrade and barter deals while working for a money-center bank, and helping to shift corporate cultures through corporate training and development efforts, I decided to work with individuals―effecting change one at a time. I’ve been helping individuals to create worklives for themselves for over 10 years.

Helping people to discover their talents/gifts, to find their unique sense of purpose in the world, and to align their gifts with their purpose is what I do. I believe that everyone has been given special talents and gifts and our “job” is to discover these abilities, develop them, and use them to fulfill our sense of purpose in the world, thereby making our contribution. This, I believe, is what gives our lives meaning. Everyone has the right to make their mark by fulfilling their unique purpose. This is the basic philosophy, which underlies my work.

At another level, I help my clients to create work that allows them to express who they are. We create opportunities for them to use their talents and abilities. Many times, these natural abilities have not yet been developed and so we create a portfolio of work activities that allows the client to make money using experienced skills while creating space for the natural abilities to be developed.

Let’s talk… a special invitation, free of charge

I invite you to to set up a phone conversation about your challenges to become free and self-expressed; it’s free of charge.
