Being strategic doesn’t have to be boring or just another box to tick. Your strategic vision for your life and your business are at the heart of everything you do, and who you are. There are many different names you can give your strategic vision. We call it DIRECTION.
You may feel that you’ve lost sight of your end goal, or the strategic vision, you had when you first set out in business. Or you may know that being in business is the right thing for you, but you’re not sure which direction to go now you’ve started.
That’s what we help you with. Get clear on your direction in life, which impacts on the direction of your business. Quite often your business is you, so your values and goals are truly at the heart of your business. Or are they? Is that why you don’t feel balanced? Your business, or your career, doesn’t really resonate with who you really are?
Getting your direction clear
You may have heard people talk about “Your Why“. Or people have asked you about your Values. You may have worked with someone to get really clear about what it is you love doing, and understand why you’re doing it.
This isn’t necessarily about, “I want to work a 3 day week term time only so I can spend more time with my children”. Or, “I want to earn as much as I can so I can retire at 50 and then go travelling around the world”.
For us at Manage Those Things, it goes much deeper.
YOUR DIRECTION AND STRATEGIC VISION IS:
- about you really listening to yourself and understanding who you are, and what makes you uniquely you
- knowing what makes you tick and feel alive so you can do more of it in your life
- putting aside the HOW and WHAT for now, and focusing on your CORE VALUES which if you don’t follow those you feel out of balance, and nothing seems to work or fit together
How we help you find your Direction
Listening to ourselves is often hard as we’re not used to believing what we say to ourselves! Believe me, I know as I spent many years hiding from my core values and wondering why I was unhappy!
It took me about 4 years to find my own direction in life and create my strategic vision for my business. Now I’ve learnt how to to help you in a much shorter space of time!
I was lucky enough to attend a ‘Find Your Why’ session with T-J. This session is really worth your time for both your business and personal life. In fact what T-J will get to, is what your personal strengths and traits are and how these can be incorporated into a successful business. T-J is an excellent listener, and this is essential to this session. You need to be prepared to ‘go deep,’ tell the stories you really want to tell and watch T-J bring out the main themes and characteristics to help you bring your core values into your work life.
If you feel like you want your business to be a reflection of you, I would advise you invest in the time with T-J and watch how things develop. We have lots of future plans now and I can’t wait to see how these unfold. Finding your ‘why’ with T-J will help motivate and inspire you.Angie Webb, Glenbreck Health
UPDATE: Angie has since gone on to find a new job to challenge herself now she truly understands her core values and beliefs. She’s found her DIRECTION, and feels empowered to follow her dreams now she’s found the confidence to be herself.
FIND YOUR WHY
A 3 hour session with experienced listener Tracey-Jane, face to face or online, after you’ve done some pre-work which T-J will set you. During this session Tracey-Jane will listen to you and help you reflect on the main themes which come through from the stories you share. The themes will give you an idea about your core values, and we’ll work together to develop a draft why statement by the end of this 3 hours together.
A 20 minute review 2 weeks later (if we’re not continuing to work together) will tie up your reflections from the session, and you’ll confirm your WHY statement which will become your personal theme and at the heart of everything you do.
Price: £247 online, (plus travel costs if working face to face, at cost)
FIND YOUR WHATs AND HOWs
Following on from understanding what makes you tick, we’ll move onto what it is which will make you happy. We’ll talk about your life as well as your business, as they interlink. For example, you may want a variety of activities in your life, but they don’t all have to be fulfilled in your business, or your personal life. Looking at the whole you is what’s important here.
Again, another 3 hour session for Tracey-Jane to listen to you, and reflect your ideas about WHAT you want to do and HOW you want to do it.
A 20 minute review 2 weeks later (if we’re not continuing to work together) will tie up your reflections from the session, and you’ll confirm your WHAT and HOW statements which you’ll use in your daily life and business.
Price: £247 online, (plus travel costs if working face to face, at cost)
DEVELOPING A CONFIDENT YOU
We’ll work closely together for 6 months. We’ll start with the FIND YOUR WHY session, (or if you’ve done this elsewhere, confirm your core values and beliefs before we move on together), before moving on to confirming your WHATs and HOWs.
We’ll spend time together, every couple of months, one to one looking at the steps you want to take from where you are now to ensure you’re taking the direction you want in your life and your business. You’ll have VIP email access for quick response if you’re feeling wobbly about something, or just need some hand holding to take that step you know you have to take, but your nervous.
You’ll take part in some action learning with other people who are also wanting to get the direction right for themselves and their business. You’ll learn from them, and your confidence will grow when you help them from your experience and knowledge too.
You’ll have your own team of cheerleaders (online), who will also support you through this 6 month confidence building in your life and business or career.
We’ll work together to develop your plan for the next 6 months, when you’re ready to take control through your new found confidence and clear direction for your life and career.

Investing in yourself is one of the hardest, but most rewarding, things to do in your life. If you invest in yourself to understand yourself, you’ll find that your career and/or business naturally fall out of your values and beliefs for yourself and your family.
Just like in your business, investing is about the future. It’s knowing who you are so you can put the foundations in place to grow and share your talents and skills with those around you – in your family, socially, or through your career or business.
I want to help you find your direction in a lot less time than it took me, and save you from some of the pain and anguish which I suffered from over my years of discovery.
