Find your passion
and make it work.

I inspire young adults to explore and embrace their passion and purpose, so they can have a meaningful life and career.

Half of the young respondents indicated that uncertainty about their future direction adversely affected their mental health, and a significant 58% felt a lack of purpose or meaning in their lives.

I’ll help you find your talents and your purpose.

I’m Naomi Byrne and I help young adults understand their values, skills, interests, and passions and help them overcome unhelpful self-beliefs and perceived barriers to success.

I have qualifications in teaching and counselling with over three decades of experience in youth work, career coaching and career transition. I also have a strong background in HR management, recruitment, outplacement and leadership coaching.

I offer both face-to-face and video sessions and my approach is both practical and inspiring. I encourage young adults to have a vision and think big while also approaching barriers to success in a systematic and effective way. My clients put together their own action plan with my facilitation and we check in regularly to monitor achievement of goals, big and small.

FAQs

  • We are most passionate when we are doing something that we love and feel like we are doing what we’re meant to be doing. Passion happens when you do things that align with your core values, interests, and loves. Learn as much about yourself as you can. What makes you the happiest? Think of the times you have felt truly alive and motivated; what were you doing? Finding passion is also about listening to your inner voice, without the negative, self-critical voice that we all have from time to time.

  • Having a vision is so important! Think of your vision as the destination at the end of the exciting train journey you are on. I recommend a 5-year vision, so there are a lot of stations between where you are and your ultimate, fantastic destination. You can change small trips along the way and go to places you may not have intended to go (and have a blast!), but if you’ve chosen the destination well, you’ll make sure you get there. It’s your inspiration, but it’s also achievable. You can change and achieve a lot in 5 years.

  • It’s okay not to know, and it’s never too late. Career indecision is very common and can happen at any stage in life. We can be significantly influenced by those around us, such as parents, friends, teachers, and bosses. You must put effort into understanding yourself. This takes working out your values, interests, and skills, but most importantly, who you are and what you’d love to do. This sounds easier than it is. It involves work, preferably with guidance from a professional. You don’t want to miss steps in self-awareness.
