Are you fed up with the daily grind? Of being answerable to someone else and turning the wheels of a corporate company that has little impact on your day-to-day life? Perhaps you need more freedom and flexibility from your work life. Your personal situation or home dynamic has changed and the 9-5 is no longer working for you. Or maybe you have just decided that now is the time to pursue a labour of love and do something you want to do to earn a living but you are not quite sure what that is. Here are some career inspiration ideas that can provide you with the opportunity to be your own boss. 

A personal trainer
If you have always had a flair for fitness and a love of training then why not apply your passion to personal training? PT courses can be found online or in-person up and down the country and offer prospective students all the tools, resources and accreditations they need to take on the role of PT. If you love fitness and wellbeing then what better option than to spend your day in the environment you love helping people to improve their fitness and health too.
​

Marketing
If you have a marketing or public relations background going solo and creating your own marketing agency can be a great move. If you know
Active mail from Mailchimp and content marketing from SEO then why not use this to your advantage and be the boss, instead of an answer to one. With the explosion of social media and online marketing more and more businesses recognise the need to up their marketing game and need the professionals to help them do it. Outsourcing to marketing departments is growing amongst even the smallest of businesses - and the best bit is you already know how to market your marketing business effectively. 


Catering 
Maybe your passions lie in the kitchen. Did your love of baking step up a notch during  lockdown? Or you have long dreamed of running a restaurant. If you have a flair for food then why not consider setting up a catering company? With catering becoming increasingly accessible more and more people are turning to paid caterers to supply the refreshments for parties, events and gatherings. What is more, the rise in food deliveries and takeaway services is really opening up the market for new online-based takeaway outlets. Maximise on this lifestyle shift and turn your pastime into a passion lead career. 

Life coaching 
Life is stressful and can be difficult to navigate and as such people are looking to life coaches to help them work their way through their busy, complex lives and achieve their personal goals. If you love to listen and help others then consider life coaching. You do not need any formal qualifications to set up as a life coach but obtaining some qualifications will make you more attractive to potential customers. You will also want to feel confident in your ability to really make a difference in other peoples lives. Online life coaching courses can be found easily and can be quick and inexpensive to complete.

Public Speaking
Public speaking is a phrase that scares so many but for others they thrive.  The art of speaking face to face to a live audience now takes shape in many different ways in the modern world.  Speaking to an audience, including pre-recorded speech delivered online, formal or informal as well even in front of TV cameras.  Should you feel that you do need some guidance, this post over on RMH of Bangor describes the tools you need to deliver a speech that no one will forget.  Whether the thought of public speaking is nerve wracking or just another thing you know you'll smash, its definitely a powerful way to connect with others.
