Network Ireland West Cork has launched a new programme called ‘Explore your Hidden Goals’. This three-part series runs fortnightly through the month of May. The programme kicked off on Friday, May 1 with a webinar hosted by branch president Caroline Murphy with special guest Margaret Hoctor. Margaret said that the process of discovering your goals is especially important. She added that she was delighted with how the webinar on ‘Explore Your Hidden Goals’ went. Caroline Murphy said “Margaret’s energy was infectious, she gave us some great advice on mindset and how to uncover these goals and dreams. Session two and three will allow our members to develop these goals further to unearth and explore their dreams a little more. We hope our members will avail of these sessions to review their goals and dreams and who knows where it might take them”.
Part two, hosted by Adrienne Harrington, entitled ‘Follow your dreams’ planned for May 15 invites student nurse Noreen Coakley, Anne Marie Kingston of White Sage Decluttering, Jackie Gowran of Business Weaving and Career Guidance Coach and Maureen Canty to share their stories of how they completely pivoted their career and lifestyle to follow their dreams. Whether it’s to start a new business or a change of career, this webinar will help to evaluate your present situation, explore the markets for possible career or new business options and identify skills and resources required to make that dream a reality. Learn from an excellent panel who have been through the process, they tell us what they loved, what they found challenging and give advice for anyone considering this route.
