"I wanted to help people on a deeper level."
It was during the first COVID Lockdown that Kirstin started thinking seriously about what she wanted to do. Like all of us, she found herself with a lot of free time on her hands. But instead of spending the time sitting in front of the TV, she had a long hard think about her passions, talents, and life experience. Ultimately, she ended up asking the big question… What is my future going to look like? The answer? Helping others achieve their dreams. And the best way to achieve it was through life coaching.

Kirstin takes her next step, and now helps others take theirs
It was during the first COVID Lockdown that Kirstin started thinking seriously about what she wanted to do. Like all of us, she found herself with a lot of free time on her hands. But instead of spending the time sitting in front of the TV, she had a long hard think about her passions, talents, and life experience. Ultimately, she ended up asking the big question… What is my future going to look like? The answer? Helping others achieve their dreams. And the best way to achieve it was through life coaching.
"I wanted to help people on a deeper level. Help people accomplish their dreams, their goals"
she says. Kirstin knew where she wanted to be, but what she needed was a path to get there, and the solution presented itself in the form of The Career Academy.
After looking at a number of different study options, The Career Academy jumped out as the options for flexible online education meant that she could continue to work while learning. She enrolled in the Certificate in Life Coaching, as well as the Diploma in Psychology & Counselling, as the Online courses covered a wide range of topics including principles of life coaching, change management, ethics, counselling skills and techniques, and the fundamentals of setting up a life coaching business.
Very quickly, Kirstin realised she made the right choice. "I found the courses and the layout of the modules to be very good, and the tutor's feedback was great." she says, "and with being self-employed I could work easily around my studies as well."
After finishing her Online course - Kirstin went on to found Take the Next Step, a life coaching business built on helping people embark on their own journeys of success and helping them navigate their way forward. "Whether it is going through a transitioning phase of life, finding a new career pathway, to dealing with relationships or relationship separation."
She prioritises a calm, relaxed, and holistic approach when it comes to her practice, an approach
drawing on her natural temperament and reinforced by her studies at The Career Academy.
As for the next steps, Kirstin is going to focus on building Take the Next Step and helping people
find their way forwards in life, and hopes that someday soon it will be her full time job. Outside
of that, she says that there might even be some more study on the cards for the future.
You can see all of the amazing things that Kirstin is achieving at Take the Next Step. If you would like to follow in her footsteps you can study the Certificate in Life Coaching which teaches you the fundamentals of life coaching and helping others achieve their own success.
Joanne's simple idea begins her future in coaching!
Joanne's journey started with a simple idea - a community-based bicycle workshop to give kids and adolescents a safe place to come to and learn a skill, develop their creativity, and give them guidance and direction to help them on their journey in life.
Joanne knew that she wanted to study to make the bicycle workshop the best it could be, but she lived in a small town, so traditional brick-and-mortar education wasn't going to be an option for her unless she wanted to spend half her day commuting to and from campus.
With that in mind - she took to the internet and found The Career Academy, which offered her the flexibility to study when, where, and how she wanted, without the hassle of having to commute every day. The Diploma in Psychology was exactly what she was looking for, so she enrolled and got started right away. Almost immediately, she found that The Career Academy was the right choice for her.
'The tutors gave me nothing but encouragement, praise, and constructive criticism where it was needed which helped me learn and grow as the course went on. I also knew that if needed I could reach out to other students doing the same course for tips or advice as the support was there.' Joanne says.
Less than a year later, Joanne found herself graduating with flying colours. But this wasn't enough for her, she wanted to continue her education journey. With that in mind, she moved on to the Certificate in Child and Adolescent Psychological Development so she could 'further my education, knowledge, and ability to start implementing why I wanted to study these courses in the first place.' Her next step is training to become a Credentialed Master Practitioner of Coaching.
With everything she's doing, it sounds like Joanne isn't going to be spinning her wheels - even though she'll be running a bike workshop!
Amali doesn't get psyched out
Many of our students are already seeking out education when they come to us, but Amali just happened to stumble across The Career Academy when she saw us on Facebook. Her interest was piqued, and she decided to do some further research.
'The ability to study online and in my own time was really appealing.' Amali says. 'It enabled me to complete the course within just a few months which was great.' This isn't uncommon for our students, as self-paced truly means self-paced, and some students end up moving through their courses faster than the duration which we have on the websites.
Initially, she enrolled in the Diploma in Psychology for two reasons; the first was to help her become a better leader, and the second was as a way of dipping her toes into the subject to see if she had a deeper interest in Psychology. To her delight, the course ended up giving her even more than she expected.
'The course really sparked a huge connection with me for furthering Psychology which I never knew I had. I also was able to attend 2 days of the Psychology Society conference due to receiving The Career Academy Top of Class award. This was 2 days of total geeking out on a fabulous event. I loved every minute of the event, and this has made me want to further my education even more.'
We wish Amali the best of luck in her Psychology journey!
