Warning!
This Workbook Creates Change Ten years ago, I started being very intentional about how I close off each year, and enter into a new one, and I now have an annual process I use to kick off a new year. This workbook is fundamental to the process, and it is something I use myself, and with my private coaching clients. When used and implemented this workbook has the potential to direct your life into a more fulfilling, and healthy place, and it will help you see where your business or career is on track, or off kilter. Most importantly, this workbook will help you gain clarity on what it will take for you to enjoy your life more. And, from my own experience, clarity is a gift that keeps on giving. Are you ready for a wonderful 2014? Very best, Natalie Michael www.karmichaelgroup.com 778-227-8717
