Vocational - Financial Wellness

Work - for some of you reading this you are being paid to do the things you would do for free – you are doing the thing you always dreamed of doing; for others it is simply just a job. Wherever you fall on this continuum; the most important element is your attitude about your work…whatever it might be. Vocational Wellness is making the best use of your skills and experience. It is about having a job that pays you enough to not only provide the necessities, but also enjoy the things you want to enjoy outside of work. Success in this area is having a great work-life balance that fits your lifestyle.

Financial Wellness is about the money you have, but more importantly it is your relationship with that money. Success in this area is a feeling of security in what you have and/or what you owe. It is a peace around money, rather than anxiety.

At the end of the day both vocational and financial wellness are a direct representation of the choices we made and continue to make. The good news is that it is never too late to make new choices to help you live your best life.
