Issue #7 Wellbeing for Women Journal with Terry
Issue #6 Reflections
As the Wellbeing for Women Tribe continues to grow, we are becoming more intentional about who we share content with within this community.
Following the reflection shared in Issue #6, I have prepared a special follow-up article for the women who responded and expressed a desire to embark on their Professional Wellbeing journey.
If you would still like to be part of this unfolding path, there is still time. Simply email info@lifewithterry.com to receive the next steps.
I am doing this not to withhold knowledge, but to encourage engagement and sharing knowledge with the relevant recipients.
Our goal isn’t just to share content. It is to walk with women who are ready to show up for their growth, their healing and their transformation.
What to expect in this edition
In this edition of Wellbeing for Women Journal with Terry, we explore foundational insights to help you create a fulfilling professional life – not just a busy one.
Here’s what we will uncover together:
✅ The deeper meaning of a fulfilling life
✅ What it truly means to live a fulfilling professional life
✅ A clear understanding of the word “Profession”
✅ The 14 essential goals for creating professional fulfilment
✅ A step-by-step guide to achieving the first 4 essential goals
✅ The power and depth of the word “Ability”
You will walk away with a renewed sense of purpose, practical tools, and encouragement to shape a career that aligns with your joy, values, calling, and wellbeing.
In this edition, I felt led to pause and reflect more on the meaning of professional fulfilment before we move into the practice of weekly professional wellbeing planning.
The truth is, many women are still struggling to create and live fulfilling professional lives. And unless we truly understand what professional fulfilment means, the process of setting weekly goals risks becoming a checklist exercise, empty of alignment, intention and purpose.
To begin this journey meaningfully, we must first explore the essence of a fulfilling life itself. Lastly I will give a guide on how to conduct an audit of our abilities that essential for creating a fulfilling professional life.
What is a fulfilling life?
A fulfilling life is a life that makes us feel happy, healthy, satisfied, comfortable and content. Beyond happiness, a fulfilling life is a life worth living. It is an exciting life full of purpose that we cannot wait to fulfil on daily basis. It makes our hearts beat at a rhythm that makes us dance with joy, sometimes beyond human understanding. It is also a life that encourages and motivates us.
A fulfilling life is the essence of who we are. Like the air that we breathe together with other essential building blocks of life, a fulfilling life is a building block that we must intentionally create in order to live & enjoy this beautiful life.
One of the many ways of living a life that will make us happy is to embark on a journey of achieving our life goals including personal wellness goals, social wellness goals and professional wellness goals. Achievement of wellness goals has a positive effect on our personal wellbeing, social wellbeing and professional wellbeing. We can find reason to exist and look forward to living when we set and achieve wellness goals.
The meaning of “Profession”
In order for us to be on the same page, I would like to share the meaning of the word “profession” for purposes of our discussion. The word “profession” mean:
- a trade or person’s employment or main occupation, especially regarded as worthy and requiring dedication.
- a paid occupation, especially one that involves prolonged training and a formal qualification.
- a calling requiring specialised knowledge and often long and intensive academic preparation.
- vocation, calling, career, occupation, line of work, line of employment, business, trade, craft, sphere; job, day job, or position.
- the word “vocation or calling” means a strong feeling of suitability for a particular career or occupation.
- the word “career” means an occupation undertaken for a significant period of a person’s life and with opportunities for progress.
What are the goals that you must identify, set and achieve in order to create and live a fulfilling professional life?
The following are fourteen essential goals that I developed for my clients as part of the Life Coaching Programme. These goals are designed to support you in creating a fulfilling professional life.
Take your time with them. There’s no need to feel overwhelmed by the number. This is your journey, and each goal will unfold at the right moment.
For the purposes of the Wellbeing for Women Journal with Terry, we will begin by exploring goals 1 to 4 in this issue.
