Leap and the net will appear

leap and the net will appear

“I have often said “Leap and the net will appear”, though the net doesn’t always look like a net” 

Maeve Gillies, brave, inspiring and creative Cultural Entrepreneur

I was inspired to write by this line from Maeve once before in: “How do you know if you could be an Entrepreneur ?“, but today I will focus on taking leaps to make a big career change, as inspired by a message from someone today feeling totally stuck where they are, yet my insight is that they simply need to follow Maeve’s advice and “leap and the net will appear”.

A story to make the point.

One of my very first coaching clients many years ago was the amazing Virginia Czarnocki, who literally walked into my office and said: “help me quit my job”.

As a coach, I simply listened deeply to her, asked the right questions, and helped her see what was really true to her and what was the b*****t she was telling herself. In V’s own words from her Linked In recommendation.

Now, Virginia did quit her job as a top lawyer and embarked on a journey with no idea what the “net” would look like, yet now she is absolutely thriving.

Her brand “Moozlers” (see FB page) started out as an idea to create healthy food around the world and has morphed and changed. Now “Coach V” is inspiring others in Cayman and around the world to be healthy and fit in so many ways, including nutrition, exercise and general wellness. She has multiple strands both on and offline through which she lives this, and here is an example video.
