Life transitions can deepen our wisdom and broaden our horizons. By “transitions,” I mean your responses to life changes that affect your roles, perceptions, and situations in significant ways. Job loss, changes in health, a geographic move, death of a loved one, a new career, shifts within a family—all these can create strong emotional reactions that alter your thinking and functioning.

It happens. Despite laws against age discrimination, employers may be biased against the older worker—“older” starting anywhere from about 40 on up. (In some parts of technology, the late 30s put a job prospect on the “old” side!) Some of you may have run up against ageism in your job hunt. For example, a prospective employer sounded enthusiastic about you over the phone but seemed less interested when you showed up wearing your well deserved wrinkles or gray hair.

Identifying your top values powers up your job search. Whether you are seeking a job or a complete career plan change, make sure to assess the driving values in your life right now. - Values are the guiding principles that help us choose our actions. When you are living your values, you are joyful and whole. If your values conflict with the values inherent in a work situation, you may experience conflict, unhappiness, and even illness.

My specialty in coaching is helping people manage their personal transitions, how they respond to external change. By “transition” I mean a reaction to a change in a situation, roles, relationships, or life views significant enough to affect how you function. You may lose a job or move to a new town on a specific date, but your emotional response and personal timeline for truly connecting to the new situation depend on many factors. If you are also going through other changes such as marriage, divorce, or a change in health, your transition may prove more challenging. A transition may also be something you wanted that did not happen for you, such as not being able to retire or not becoming a parent or grandparent.
