By the end of this article, you will learn about a powerful bio hack that will help you get your clients into career flow with ease by helping your clients reduce or remove and relieve negative mindset loops to reset, recharge and re-energize their career.
As a career coach are you currently experiencing any of the following with your clients?
- Clients who are showing signs of poor concentration
- Clients who lack motivation
- Clients who are showing signs of poor mental or physical health due to anxiety or worries about their careers
- Clients who agree to act on agreed tasks but who are making little or no progress
Picture this …
Your client arrives for a career coaching session and is feeling anxious as they have been unexpectedly let go from a job they loved. As a result, they are feeling traumatized.
Or perhaps
Your client has just been told if they don’t improve their grades this semester they might not pass their course.
Or
Your client wants to secure a job but is a habitual procrastinator and this is the third session where they’ve turned up unprepared. They haven’t applied for any of the jobs they were so excited about in the previous session.
Clients going through these types of situations can feel overwhelmed by the thought of taking action towards their career goals?
How do you motivate and get your client into career flow with ease and without them feeling even more overwhelmed?
When your client feels anxious, stressed or overwhelmed, they are out of career flow-and any intervention you make, will most likely not be actioned.
What do I mean when I say career flow?
I recently read a beautiful description by Lisa Larue:
When individuals experience intense engagement in their work, they can enter a state of ‘flow.’
Getting your client into flow is key and has a direct link to how effective you are as a career professional
Why does career flow matter when you are career coaching?
Finding a powerful and effective way to engage your clients so that they become motivated and focused on the career task is what makes a coaching session transformative. Time disappears as your client becomes absorbed in achieving their career goal.
Like me, you care about creating a transformative career coaching experiences for your clients. This is why I created the IAmThriving 90 second ©Bio Hack.
When you can help your client achieve career flow with ease, you can create and build rapport quickly and achieve a transformative career coaching experience. This leaves both you and your client feeling uplifted, invigorated and energized.
What is the IAmThriving 90 second © Bio Hack & how does it work?
It’s powerful and simple and can be used with any client.
There are 3 Steps to get your client’s career flow back. And you get to help your client achieve career growth without stress.
Step 1 – 60 seconds – Super Brain Yoga
Procrastination can be a mechanism for coping with the anxiety your client feels about their career. Procrastination is based in fear. If your client doesn’t understand both the cost of inaction and the benefits of action, they won’t feel motivated. This movement will help reset the brain and help you client move out of procrastination mode.
Step 2 – 15 seconds – Power Pose
Social Psychologist and bestselling author Dr Amy Cuddy developed the Power Pose. Stand in a Power Pose for 15 seconds. This helps your client re-energise and increase confidence.
Step 3 – 15 seconds – The Anxious Reappraisal
If your client repeats “I’m excited” for 15 seconds, this provides an antidote to the anxiety they are feeling around job hunting. This helps them channel their energy to help them with career development tasks.
Top 3 Benefits for your clients:
- Helps them Stay Focused – Get Results
- Stops them Struggling – Start Thriving
- Helps them build a Joyful Career Without Anxiety
It allows your client to connect their head, heart and hand for a more authentic career coaching experience.
When to use the IAmThriving 90 second © Bio Hack?

I had the pleasure of being coached by Sabiha through the I am thriving project. She is really keen to impart the knowledge and experience she had gained over the years while working as a career coach. Sabiha taught me how to deal with challenging clients by using different guidance tools and the Bio Hack techniques which enabled me to gain an understanding of the client’s issues that prevent them moving further into their career paths. I would highly recommend Sabiha as my own experience was really amazing the way she guided and equipped with different client centred career coaching techniques.
