About Jeff Baker
There is no sufficient school for becoming a Career Coach. It takes a lifetime of experience. Figuring out how to do work that is purposeful, fulfilling, inspiring, and future-proof while still making a good living has been a lifelong obsession. En route to that end I have:
- Worked in several industries (construction, software, yoga, web-design, manufacturing)
- Founded 5 businesses and one non-profit
- Built a software company to 13 staff, selling product in 10 countries
- Built a six-figure freelancing business
- Been a hiring manager for 4 years
- Raised a son (the best unexpected learning)
- Studied with an enlightened man for a year
- Completed many personal development and leadership programs over several years
- Lived and worked at a meditation centre for a year
- Travelled to 11 countries
- Absorbed dozens of books on career development, extracting the very best tools and wisdom
- Read over 100 books on personal development and performance, again extracting the best tools and wisdom
- Spent the past several years studying the science of motivation, polyvagal theory, and several other subjects in the field of psychology that powerfully influence our ability to succeed
Everything in my life has led me to be a Career Coach. It is who I am.
About Positive Futures
I spent 15 years figuring out how to do that for myself and a few more learning how to make it available to others. My greatest joy is watching people regain their freedom and confidence as they discover who they are, what makes them valuable, and how to do what matters most to them.
What to Expect
Einstein said, “Everything should be made as simple as possible, but not simpler.” That is what I have done for the process of making money doing what you love. I have found, experienced and tested every step on that journey, outlined and arranged all the steps, and left out the noise and glut. I now make it available to you in the most succinct, actionable way, and coach you through every step.
Positive Future exists for one reason: to help you stop ‘working for a living’ and start ‘doing what you love’ while making good money.
