Michael Bungay Stanier – The How to Begin Course

Clarity, Confidence and a Nudge

okay, maybe more like a push…

This course will help you BEGIN to ditch the doubt, take bold action, and finally do that exciting thing you’ve been overthinking in the shower… You’ll be equipped with:

The “Worthy Goal” Framework

A process designed to help you identify your ideal goal: one thrilling, important, and daunting to YOU.

Practical Tools & Exercises

That will guide you step by step in defining, committing, and taking action on your goal.

Accountability & Support

That will keep you on track so you don’t give up when things get tough.

A Mindset Shift

That will move you from passive dreaming to active doing.

Encouragement to Think Bigger

That will challenge you to step outside your comfort zone and aim for something truly meaningful.

Learner-Friendly & Accessible

Bite-size videos, captions, transcripts, demos, and worksheets to make learning and action easy.

And, of course, a little bit of playfulness along the way –

because sometimes the best ideas come mid-swing.

This course was built for you if

+ You’re in transition

between careers, stepping into retirement, or just sensing that the old way of doing things no longer fits.

+ You’re a lifelong learner

curious about what’s next and wanting to approach it with clarity and intention.

+ You’re a coach

who’s great at supporting others — and looking for a fresh process to support yourself (and maybe your clients too).

+ You’re a creative or builder

with a project calling your name. You want help carving out space, sharpening your focus, and getting it going.

+ You’ve spent years putting others first

raising a family, leading a team, supporting a partner — and now that it’s your turn, you’re wondering: what do I want?

This is a beautiful place to   

Begin Again   

Let me coach you — step by step — through a process to help you:

• Reconnect to what matters to you now
• Choose a true-to-you focus or direction (we call it a Worthy Goal)
• Take the first steps — with less stuckness and more momentum

You can use it once, to make an important discovery or shift. Or you can return to it again and again —- every time you’re reinventing yourself, starting something new, or figuring out what’s next.
