Outliers and college dropouts are often seen with incredible fortunes; look at Steve Jobs and Mark Zuckerberg. There are countless examples of people making it to the highest echelons of business or any field who were less than average in their studies. However, what you don’t see is an outlier turning into a career advisor! Francesca Chang, the former lawyer, is that person who chucked her law degree to follow her own path to success. At present, she is coaching people to maximize their potential and break free from the shackles of limiting workplace environments.
It’s quite common to see people unmotivated and feeling unaccomplished despite being in very good positions. One would think, why? Such a situation happens when our heart is not attached to what we do. It leaves a gaping hole in the souls, and one starts feeling a crushing weight on themself. Francesca is a beacon of light for lawyers who are crying under their desks because of the redundant work and toxic law firm environments.
Workplaces can be soul-sucking; with their concrete walls, office politics, negativity, and lack of appreciation. With an overwhelming amount of work and unsustainable office hours, there is no time left for self-care, family, entertainment, and enjoyment. This is where Francesca Chang comes in. She is making an impact by coaching people on creating a balance between work and personal life and even switching professions if it comes to that. She believes that life is for living.
For Francesca, the sky’s the limit. If you are caught in a toxic situation that’s crippling you and blocking your way to fame and fortune as well as happiness and contentment, then the best thing is to part ways. Nothing’s worth your mental peace and happiness. If you are becoming a slave to your profession, it’s time to explore options to either fix your relationship with what you do or start doing something that brings joy and a sense of accomplishment.
Life coach and travel blogger Francesca Chang has done it herself, and she guides others to follow their hearts. The occupational transition may not be easy, but it’s rewarding when you do it the right way. For her part, Francesca left her law degree to experiment with different professions until she started her blog, “Attorney on a Journey.” This was her true self; she returned to her reclaimed motherland to share Taiwan with the world. She started monetizing her blog, and it paid good money. It also paved the way for life-coaching, her profession. She is happy with what she does now because it nourishes her heart and soul. Unlike the legal profession, it is in her new, self-discovered path where she feels most comfortable, and she coaches her clients to find the same.
