IS THIS YOU?
You are a young or mid-career professional, but you are:
- Tired of showing up everyday at a job that may have prestige, have potential or pays the bills, but just doesn’t connect with you anymore?
- Feeling trapped, uninspired and disillusioned in your job?
- Burnt out and wish that there is more meaning to work and life?
- Quietly wishing that you can try something different, but are afraid or unsure of the next steps?
IMAGINE IF YOU:
- Finally feel clear and confident about your purpose, goals and next steps?
- Know deep-down that your work resonates with your values, interests, skillsets and who you are?
- Wake up energised, with a sense of mission and destiny?
- Have someone who has walked through this same path to coach you in journey ahead?

DON’T STAY STUCK.
IT’S TIME TO TAKE THE NEXT STEP.
I partner young and mid-career professionals gain clarity and confidence about their goals, purpose and next steps for their career and life.
For the last 20 years, I’ve worked in corporate learning & development, competency development, leadership programmes and facilitation, coaching and mentoring conversations, emceeing conferences and corporate events, inspiring and lifting people one-to-one and 1-to-many.
But yes, I have also been:
- Burnt out, thrice in fact!
- Pivoted into new roles
- Stepped out of my comfort zones
- Embraced a new me instead of living in what I know is past
And that is why I aim to coach professionals like I was to step out, up and into the future versions of themselves!
In my latest adventure, I also create content to inspire people to step out of their comfort zones @Barry.Inspires – follow me on TikTok and Instagram. Come follow me on this journey!
Because I believe that behind every person lies a resourceful past that we can tap on, that we may ride into a future that is waiting for us to step in to. And that includes YOU.
