I'm a GP and clinical academic currently. Thoroughly burned out and had enough of General Practice and the NHS, both in my own practice and dealing with practices for student placements. I've tried lots of changes to make things work over the past few years, and have come to the sad conclusion that I need to get out completely.
I've been doing some online careers questionnaires, and thinking about what I enjoy about my current roles. I like the idea of having my own business, and helping people who are motivated to make improvements to their lives. I come up as 'creative' and 'entrepreneur' on most of the careers tests I've tried. I'm an INFJ on MBTI.
One of the things that looks like a possible fit is 'Life coaching'. There's loads of courses etc available, but most of it looks too good to be true. If you're a life coach, I'd love to hear how you got into it, what qualifications you've done, and what the actual job is like day to day please.
