A few weeks ago, I asked an accomplished client who is feeling stuck in her current job, “What are your dreams for your life?” “That’s the problem,” she said. “I just don’t know.”

Recently another client explained that she didn’t have a clear sense of her next career move. This client is also quite accomplished. Throughout her career, she has taken the right steps to move forward—the right degrees, the right jobs, the right decisions for her family. But somewhere along the way, she has lost the ability to hear that inner voice that whispers her personal dreams.
