The Karmic Ally Coaching Experience
Quiz

Win your challenges with our unique solutions

Career growth at senior levels isn’t driven by skills alone but also how effectively you navigate change -internally and professionally. At Karmic Ally Coaching, I work with accomplished women professionals who want to strengthen their Executive Presence, lead with confidence, and position themselves for leadership roles. Many high achievers reach a point where progress feels harder than it should. Despite strong performance, they may experience hesitation, reduced visibility, or uncertainty about their next step. Change often sits at the heart of these moments. The Karmic Ally Coaching Change Management Quiz is a short self-assessment designed to help you understand how you currently respond to change and challenge at work.
 

How Confident Are You About Your Work Life Balance?

Work Life Balance Quiz

 

Readers who have been reading The Karmic Ally Coaching Experience Blog posts would recall my post on the 3 tips to get one’s life balance back over the weekend.  While it is good to receive tips and advice it is more important to feel confident about your work life balance.

If you are sure you have it all worked out, then that is really good!

So, how confident are you? If you hesitated on reading the question, then I invite you to take this short quiz. Find out where you score in the work-life balance challenge.

 

Work-Life Balance Quiz

This is a really short quiz to give you some insights.

All you need is a piece of paper and a pen and mark each of the statements as it relates to you in terms of True or False.

  1. I regularly bring work home with me
  2. I’ve missed many of my family’s important events because of work-related time pressures and responsibilities
  3. My annual leave entitlement either lapses or I end up encashing it
  4. I have a hobby but rarely spend time on it nowadays
  5. I often feel like I’m missing out on the things that mean the most to me
  6. I think about work in my sleep
  7. I have clutter in my house and/or in my office
  8. My career is not what I thought it would be when I was studying for it
  9. I get angry when people tell me to relax
  10. I can’t remember when I spent some “me” time
  11. I can’t remember the last time I went to the movies or visited a museum or attended some other cultural event
  12. I wake up tired in the morning
  13. Sometimes I feel as though I’ve lost sight of who I am and why I chose this job/career
  14. I do what I do because my family depends on me for support
  15. I cannot remember when I last read a good book

Scoring:

Give yourself 1 point for each true response and 0 for each false response.

0-3 – Your life is in pretty good balance! Just be sure to do what you can to guard that balance working on areas where you marked the statement as being True

4-6 – You are bordering on the negative side of work/life balance spectrum. Now would be a good time to take proactive measures before the areas that you marked as True start to play havoc with your life, work and everything and everyone that is important to you

7+ You already felt your life was out of balance when you took the test. Now you know for sure. It is time to act on a priority basis to make the necessary changes in your work and your life. Take your family into confidence and seek the required support to make changes before it is too late.

 

What about the statements that you marked “True”?

Each “true” response is a sign that you probably need to make changes in your life — and the higher the number, the more critical it is for you to make changes in your lifestyle.

Remember, no matter what your score, there is always scope for improvement and that is where Ten Steps to a Balanced Life The Karmic Ally Way will come in handy. The document is downloadable at Slideshare.net.

Meet your coach

I believe the world would be a better place if high achieving professionals accepted setbacks and challenges to their careers as Wake Up Calls to embark on a Journey where their empowered course correcting actions create a New World Order that encompasses achieving their career aspirations & potential with authentic life balance.

If you’re a driven, passionate, talented and ambitious professional  who’s hit a speed breaker in your business or career and want to create your desired breakthrough to reclaim control of your situation, then you’ve come to the right place because we can work together on customized strategies and tactics that deliver results.

When my clients first reach out to me, they are not in a very happy place, needing clarity about themselves, their desires, chosen vocation and what will give them peace of mind. They are drawn to me for the very reasons that I highlight in Who Is Karmic Ally Coaching.

Lack of recognition at work, inability to project themselves with confidence and frustration are just some of their professional problems that are playing havoc with other areas of their life. They know they need to take radical steps to change the status quo but they also know they need support and accountability to get them their desired result.

I really get it, because I’ve experienced that dark night of the Soul. I know firsthand the outcome of getting lost in my work rationalizing decisions that were detrimental to other aspects of my life.

Like you, I’ve struggled with and won battles of stress management, corporate politics, life balance and career decisions to emerge in a place where I can confidently say that I live my desired life according to my personal Manifesto and have created a business that provides me with a platform for my desired lifestyle and self-expression for myself. I want that for you too!

Helped me by making a priority of what needs to be done

I approached Vatsala at Karmic Ally Coaching because of Shiny Object Syndrome. I have always had this distract me and the tools Vatsala gave me to avoid this have been such a great help.

Vatsala Shukla of Karmic Ally Coaching helped me by making a priority of what needs to be done and what can really be put on the back burner. The result was I accomplish more on a daily basis and am finally on track with my business.

One thing I liked was her Time Management Tips because they helped me break down my day where I could fit everything necessary in and even have time for myself. I found the experience exhilarating because I was a procrastinator and now am a doer.

I would recommend Karmic Ally Coaching to people who need guidance in their business and to learn how to plan their days better to achieve their goals.

Good luck going forward.

Love and Blessings,

Catherine
