Quarterlife is often a time of solution-seeking on how to do better in life.
 

It's also a time when one may be doubting choices, lacking a sense of direction or trying to change a current path.
 

The Quartlerlife journey involves reflecting on decisions today and how they will impact your future self. 

​

The following are typical stages of a Quarterlife reflection journey: 

​

1. Locked-in: Between the ages of 20 - 35 many experience feeling unhappy or trapped in a study path or career. This goes beyond disliking classes, teachers, a boss or current employer, and can manifest as a deep sense that what you are doing is not what you are meant to do. This is the stage when people consider making drastic life changes.

2. Separation: A sense of dissatisfaction which is so great that an individual makes a clean break. This can mean a mental or physical dissociation from one’s previous life structure.

3. Exploration: At this stage, individuals start to experiment with a new possible self. This is a time of self-reflection and awareness as well as transition.

4. Resolution: Individuals emerge with a different life structure, more suited to their strengths and personal aspirations.
    

If you find yourself at stage 3 and ready to take action in designing your future, Career Explore can support you. 

 

OUR QUARTERLIFE PROGRAM (QLP)

​

Starting at the "Exploration" stage of the Quarterlife journey, Career Explore's

Quarterlife Program (QLP) provides an opportunity for you to focus on who you are today, what you value and your vision for yourself when it comes to higher education, career and working life.

​

We also encourage reflection around when you are at your best, what strengths you are currently using, where there is potential to use them more and what makes sense to further develop. The QLP will help you identify your objectives so that you target studies, jobs and work contexts that speak to your unique needs.

​

All exercises work towards identifying specific objectives and then formulating a plan for getting closer to those objectives. Development of the action plan includes discussion and exercises concerning resource awareness and utilization as well as overcoming personal obstacles. ​

 

In addition, we offer Stress Management Training focusing on techniques to  enhance wellbeing in Quarterlife.
