In this powerful episode of Her Career Coach, Christina Storey takes us on a journey toward meeting our future selves—a version of us who’s thriving, resilient, and unapologetically authentic. Christina introduces the concepts of future self-visualisation and journaling, two practices that can reshape how we approach our daily lives and long-term goals. Through visualisation, she guides us to imagine this future version in vivid detail: her habits, environment, relationships, and approach to challenges. This “future self” isn’t just a distant dream; she’s already within reach, and every small, intentional choice brings her closer to reality.

Christina explains how these practices create a conscious awareness of our habits and behaviours, helping us shift from subconscious autopilot to purposeful actions. By dedicating just a few minutes each day to visualising or journaling, listeners can align more deeply with their values and make choices that resonate with the person they aspire to be.
