Wondering if there is anyone that can help me with free or low cost career counseling. I need someone really smart that can help me think outside the box . i am very ambitious but I have some health problems so I need to reinvent myself . It’s incredible frustrating, I am honest spinning in circles trying to figure out what to do

I am a career coach, and although I don't offer free career support on an ongoing basis, I do offer a one-time complimentary call where we can discuss your specific challenges and some strategies. You're welcomed to schedule that on my website if you'd like. It's www.griselscarantino.com. I also welcome you to follow me on LinkedIn where I am most active. I share helpful information there a few times a week.

Seeking advice for dealing with a toxic manager and his employee who report to me. Six months ago, my executive director asked me to take on a new small team. She asked that I focus on documenting what they do and try to eliminate non value-add activities (a company initiative). I have spent the last six months trying to better understand what they do.
