DEVELOP YOUR ARTISTIC CONFIDENCE I'd really like to write but I don't have enough time. Creativity coaching can give you back control over your calendar.

EXPAND YOUR HOBBY TO A PART-TIME BUSINESS: I can make crafts for others, but I'm too scared to sell them to strangers. Creativity coaching can teach you how to expand and meet your artistic expectations.

EXPLORE YOUR COMMUNICATION SKILLS: Marketing my work to new markets is difficult. Creativity coaching can teach you how to research and develop new markets.

ACHIEVE YOUR ARTISTIC GOALS: I can set goals, but I can't complete them. Creativity coaching can teach you how to formulate and complete your goals.

I've worked with someone I know in my community who is looking for her next job.

These are things I have discovered about myself, my values and my own ethics in advising someone in job search.

1. This person has had no job history that has not been menial or beneath her capabilities. She is now close to being 50 years old.

2. I counseled her for three visits as we discussed her past and future. She did not appear to "buy into" advice and information I was providing.

3. She is deeply religious and her decisions are based on being of service to others and to God. 4. She had been sexually abused as a child by a male family member.

5. She is probably going to be laid off from her current job and is negotiating with a new group in town to be a houseparent with two day and night shifts, working with women who have recently been released from incarceration.
