Tips for my husband? He works in insurance- bachelors degree (not a fancy one), mid 30s. Very unhappy at work- started at different insurance company a few months ago. We have a 1 year old and it’s tough to find time outside of work (long hours, mental burnout) to focus. How can he figure out a different career that might make sense for him? Is there someone worth paying for / talking to (career coach, etc)? He’s already seeing a therapist.
Thanks in advance, all. 🙏

I hired a life coach. It was expensive, but I really liked it.

Let me caveat that I’m naturally happy though, which represented less than 2% of my coach’s clients

First start with what like to do or good at. Find a list of career that matches those requirements lastly narrow down the list to the best ones for him.

Claims adjuster. Currently in medical, but worked in arbitration litigation, and other units before.

Look into firms that do federal contracting work, specifically with CMS. Lots of need for people familiar with the claims process, esp for medicaid and Medicare .

Where does his mind go when it wanders? What does he picture himself doing?

Also, what's his natural innate strengths? (Comes easy to him but may be challenging to others).

I'm a career coach and would be happy to have a initial networking call. You can schedule one here: www.careersuccessnow.com
