Directional Living: A Transformational Guide to Fulfillment in Work and Life -- Megan Hellerer, Hardcover

A guide for creating a life of maximum fulfillment and purpose, by the "Conscious Career Coach," whose program has helped hundreds of women find their career paths including Congresswoman Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez

So many of us have done everything right for our careers. We got the grades, made the 5-year plan, climbed the ladder toward our goals; from the outside, we are the very definition of "success." Why then do we find ourselves burned out, losing our ambition, consumed by impostor syndrome, and ultimately unfulfilled?

In DIRECTIONAL LIVING, Megan Hellerer presents a new way of thinking about our lives, one that turns away from the voices telling us what a good life "should" look like, and instead relies on cultivating our own inner navigation. Through Hellerer's revolutionary new blueprint, we can get unstuck in our careers or even transform them, move from misery to meaning, and find the work we are meant to be doing in the world. DIRECTIONAL LIVING is both a philosophy and a practical guide to getting unstuck, encouraging experimentation and ultimately creating not just a great life, but your great life--one full of genuine purpose, meaning, ease and authenticity.

About the Author
Megan Hellerer is a career coach and the founder of Coaching for Underfulfilled Overachievers. She has led hundreds of women, including Representative Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, to transform their lives by transforming their careers. After checking all of the traditional boxes of success--graduating at the top of her class from Stanford and spending 8 years as a Google executive--and still finding herself deeply unhappy, she quit her "great-on-paper" job with no plan. Now, her mission is to provide others with the support and guidance that she needed and couldn't find when she herself was struggling. Megan has been featured in publications such as New York Magazine, Vogue Australia, The Wall Street Journal, CNBC and The Times of London. She lives with her husband and daughter in the Hudson Valley, upstate New York.
